A link tree is a bio link site for Instagram with multiple links. These can be any links in any quantity. The only limit is your sense of reason.
A link tree makes link sharing easy. It gathers all your links together. You give a single link to users but what they get is a variety of links. For example, you can add your link tree to your Instagram bio, and your followers can view it and select the link relevant to them:
