The music-native Linktree alternative
Linktree is a great general link-in-bio tool, but it is not built for music. PromoLink gives musicians and labels music-native smart links and pre-saves inside a whole label operating system: promo, analytics, communication and a label page in one, free to start, with Trust Scores that show real support.
Linktree is a real, excellent general-purpose link-in-bio tool. The difference is focus: it is not built for music. PromoLink gives you music-native smart links and pre-saves that also capture your audience to an owned mailing list, inside a whole label operating system that runs your promo, analytics and communication too. For the smart-link side specifically, see PromoLink SmartLinks.
