Adding Links

How to add, edit, and organize links on your Itzme profile.

Links are the heart of your Itzme profile. They connect visitors to your social profiles, portfolio, contact information, and anywhere else you want to send them.

Accessing Links

  1. Log in to your Dashboard
  2. Click "Links" in the left sidebar
  3. You'll see all your current links and the option to add more

Adding a New Link

Step 1: Click "Add Link"

Click the "+ Add Link" button in your Links section.

Step 2: Enter Link Title

This is the text people will see on your button. Keep it clear and descriptive:

✅ Good titles:

  • "LinkedIn Profile"
  • "My Portfolio"
  • "Email Me"
  • "GitHub"
  • "Download Resume"

❌ Avoid:

  • "Click Here" (not descriptive)
  • "Link" (too vague)
  • "linkedin.com/in/johnsmith" (too long, hard to read)

Step 3: Enter the URL

Paste the full web address:

✅ https://linkedin.com/in/johnsmith
✅ https://github.com/johnsmith
✅ mailto:john@email.com

Tip: Make sure to include https:// at the beginning of web URLs. For email links, use mailto: before the email address.

Step 4: Save

Click "Add" or "Save" and your link appears on your profile immediately.

Types of Links to Add

Professional Links

Must-haves for most professionals:

  • LinkedIn profile
  • Professional email contact
  • Portfolio or personal website

Additional professional links:

  • GitHub (for developers)
  • Dribbble or Behance (for designers)
  • Medium or personal blog (for writers)
  • Company website (if you represent a business)

Social Media Links

Connect your social presence:

  • Twitter/X
  • Instagram
  • Facebook
  • TikTok
  • YouTube
  • Threads

Tip: Only include social profiles you want professional contacts to see. Keep personal accounts separate.

Contact Links

Make it easy for people to reach you:

Email:

Title: "Email Me"

URL: mailto:yourname@email.com

Phone (optional):

Title: "Call Me"

URL: tel:+1234567890

Calendar booking:

Title: "Book a Meeting"

URL: https://calendly.com/yourname

Organizing Your Links

Reordering Links

Drag and drop your links to reorder them:

  1. Find the drag handle (⋮⋮ or similar icon) next to each link
  2. Click and hold
  3. Drag to the desired position
  4. Release to drop

Best practices for ordering:

  1. Most important link first (usually LinkedIn or portfolio)
  2. Other professional links
  3. Social media profiles
  4. Contact information
  5. Fun/personal links (if included)

Turning Links On/Off

Each link has a toggle switch:

  • On (green) - Link is visible on your profile
  • Off (gray) - Link is hidden but saved for later

This is useful for:

  • Temporarily hiding a link
  • Preparing links for future use
  • A/B testing what works best

Deleting Links

To remove a link:

  1. Find the link you want to delete
  2. Click the trash icon or "Delete" button
  3. Confirm the deletion

Caution: Deleted links cannot be recovered. If you might want it later, turn it off instead of deleting.

Tip: Links with the most clicks should probably be at the top of your profile!

Troubleshooting

Link not working?

  • Check the URL starts with https://
  • Make sure there are no spaces in the URL
  • Verify the website is actually live
  • Test the link yourself by clicking it

Link title too long?

  • Keep titles under 30 characters for best appearance
  • Use abbreviations if needed (e.g., "LinkedIn" not "My LinkedIn Profile Page")

Can't reorder links?

  • Make sure you're grabbing the drag handle icon
  • Try using a desktop computer (dragging works best there)
  • Refresh the page and try again

Best Practices

✅ DO:

  • Test every link after adding it
  • Use clear, descriptive titles
  • Put the most important links first
  • Update links when they change
  • Remove broken or outdated links

❌ DON'T:

  • Add too many links (5-8 is ideal)
  • Include links you don't want employers to see
  • Use vague titles like "Click Here"
  • Add broken or inactive links
