The link-in-bio guide for Welsh creators

Musicians, podcasters, makers — how to build a linc.cymru profile that actually converts social followers into sales, gigs, and members.
Why link-in-bio matters more for Welsh creators
If you're a Welsh-language creator, your audience is precious and concentrated. You can't afford to lose someone the moment they tap "link in bio" and land on a generic Linktree page that doesn't speak your language.
A good link-in-bio profile does three things at once:
- Confirms identity - "yes, you found the right person"
- Showcases your best work - not a wall of links, but a curated bento
- Gives one clear next action - listen, watch, buy, book
linc.cymru is built specifically for this, in Welsh first.
The bento layout, explained
Every linc.cymru profile uses a bento grid - mixed-size tiles you arrange like furniture. Some tiles are full-width (great for hero content), some are half-width (great for paired CTAs), some are square (great for icons and quick links).
For most creators, the winning recipe is:
- One full-width hero - your latest single, episode, drop, or gig
- Two half-width tiles - your two most-clicked links (usually Spotify + Bandcamp, or YouTube + TikTok)
- Four square tiles - social icons (Instagram, Twitter, BlueSky, etc.)
- One full-width newsletter capture - the highest-ROI feature for any creator
Profile checklist
- [ ] Profile photo at 800x800+ (we compress automatically)
- [ ] Headline in Welsh AND English ("Cerddor o Wynedd" / "Musician from Gwynedd")
- [ ] Latest release tile pinned to the top
- [ ] At least one media embed (Spotify track, YouTube video) - they convert 3x better than a plain link
- [ ] Newsletter / mailing list capture (Creator+ feature)
- [ ] Theme matches your visual brand
Common mistakes
Too many links. A 14-link wall of identical buttons converts worse than 5 carefully-chosen tiles. Cut ruthlessly.
English-only. Even if your audience is mostly English-speaking, the Welsh version tells the world who you are. Use both.
No analytics check. Once a week, open your dashboard and see which tiles are getting tapped. Move the winners higher and kill the losers.
Real example
Take a look at the demo profile - it's set up exactly this way and you can copy the layout in a couple of taps via the Layout manager.
Linktree alternative? Yes, and more
If you're currently on Linktree, the autofill feature will import your existing setup in seconds. From there, customise the bento, add Welsh, and ship.

Y gosodiad bento, wedi'i esbonio
Mae pob proffil linc.cymru yn defnyddio grid bento - teils maint cymysg rwyt ti'n eu trefnu fel dodrefn.
Y rysáit fuddugol i'r rhan fwyaf o grewyr:
- Un arwr lled llawn - dy sengl, pennod, neu gig diweddaraf
- Dau deil hanner-lled - dy ddau linc â'r cliciau mwyaf
- Pedwar teil sgwâr - eiconau cymdeithasol
- Un cipio cylchlythyr lled llawn
Camgymeriadau cyffredin
Gormod o linciau. Mae wal o 14 botwm tebyg yn trosi'n waeth na 5 teil sydd wedi'u dewis yn ofalus.
Saesneg yn unig. Hyd yn oed os yw dy gynulleidfa yn siaradwyr Saesneg yn bennaf, mae'r fersiwn Gymraeg yn dweud wrth y byd pwy wyt ti.
