Introducing PLANOLY’s linkit Feature: The Bridge Between Influencers and Brands

PLANOLY’s newest link-building feature allows users to link the posts featured on their Instagram feed back to any URL. You can curate a custom gallery of your Instagram posts and attach links to a brand’s website, blog article, or referral links.

For the consumer, this makes discovering a product, then purchasing it through an influencer or blogger’s social media account, easier and more efficient. And best of all, linkit is a free tool available to PLANOLY users.

For all PLANOLY users, you can access linkit immediately by heading to the top right of the navigation bar on desktop in IG Planner. You do not need to set up, upgrade, or add linkit to your PLANOLY account. (Keep in mind, if you are a Paid PLANOLY user and have upgraded to sellit, linkit is built into sellit. This means you will not see a linkit view at the top navigation bar in your IG Planner).

Here’s where you access linkit

• In your PLANOLY account, navigate to the top right navigation bar

• Click on the “LINKIT” view

• You now are in the “linkit Page View”

To access linkit, head over to the linkit tab in the upper right corner of the PLANOLY on your desktop. linkit offers two customizable buttons to redirect followers to any URL and will visually display a clickable version of your Instagram posts and their links. 

By adding the linkit link to your bio, your followers can view your custom buttons, browse a curated version of your Instagram feed, and click on posts to be redirected to view any site. For influencers and creators, linkit is a game-changing feature to easily direct your followers to your products and referral links. 

Now you can take your followers exactly where they need to go in just a few clicks! The link’s seamless approach will make your account a destination for followers to shop, browse, and support your campaigns. Think of it as your very own department store but more stylish and helpful!

• Click on the “LINKIT” view

• Select the Instagram post you want to add to your Grid Gallery

• Click the button “Add (1) to Store” once you have selected the post
