Should I Be Using Linktree?
Now for the reason for us writing this Blog. Should I be using Linktree? Well we think it matters how and when you are going to use it. For example, when it comes to SEO that short response is no. The reason for this is because of follow links. If you are using the URL that is provided by Linktree then it will not help boost your Domain Authority. For these cases we would suggest you use your full domain.
When it comes to places like on Instagram and for gamers. This is a great option and something that will allow you to get in front of your audience and provide them with a simple link. Which is great!
Overall Linktree is a great tool when used at the right time. If you enjoyed this blog then feel free to leave a comment!
