Zentry Technology category winner

Best free link-in-bio tool for analytics and ad retargeting

Linklay is the only platform in this ten-tool record whose published free plan includes live analytics plus Meta, TikTok and Google retargeting pixels. It is not our winner for native commerce: Stan Store, Beacons, Linktree and Taplink all document selling features Linklay does not.

Linklay score: 6.4 / 10

Rank 1 of 10. Every number here is calculated from the verified fields on this page using the weights published in our methodology. A field Linklay does not document scores zero.

Measurement and retargeting · 30%: 6.2 / 10 — Visitor analytics, analytics history and export, UTM handling, and Meta, TikTok and Google tracking. Weighted highest because measurement is what turns a bio page into an acquisition channel.
Free-tier capability · 20%: 10.0 / 10 — How much of the product is usable without paying: whether a free plan exists at all, and which capabilities the platform documents as included on it.
Cost of entry · 15%: 8.5 / 10 — Annualised cost of the cheapest paid tier, plus whether a free plan exists. One-time pricing is amortised over three years.
Branding and page control · 15%: 4.8 / 10 — Custom domain, platform branding removal, unlimited links, CSS and font control, video backgrounds, scheduling and password protection.
Commerce · 10%: 2.8 / 10 — Native storefront and checkout, digital products, courses, memberships, bookings, tips, and the platform's own cut of each sale.
Technical and search visibility · 10%: 3.0 / 10 — Server-rendered profile HTML, SEO and meta controls, a public API, and documented third-party integrations.

Corrections to this record

2026-09-18 · Server-rendered profile HTML
Changed from “unverified — a raw request for a profile path returned the shared marketing shell rather than profile-specific HTML” to “Verified: a raw request for a public profile returns profile-specific HTML, including display name, bio text, link labels, page title, OpenGraph tags and two JSON-LD blocks”. Re-tested directly. The earlier check used a browser user agent and received a Cloudflare challenge shell, which we mistook for the application shell. Repeating the request as Googlebot, Bingbot and GPTBot returns a 5.6 KB document containing the profile's own content. Because search and answer engines crawl with those agents, the crawler-facing response is the one that determines indexability.
