QR code for a link in bio

28 Oct 2026 · 1 min read

A QR code for a link in bio points at the same public page as the Instagram line. The studio can make the code and count the scans.

Print the page, not a one-week link

A QR code for a link in bio belongs on a poster, a card, a menu, or a wedding invitation. The code should open the page you can edit later. If the code points at Friday's video directly, the poster is wrong next week.

makemylink.space/yourname is the address to encode. Publish the page before you print.

The studio code

The studio can make a QR code for the profile. Scans are counted beside views and link clicks. You can also point a code at one button when the poster is about that single action.

Test the print with your phone before you order a stack. A code that opens a draft, or a sample link, is a wasted poster.

What the landing page should show

A person who scanned a menu card wants the menu. A person who scanned a show poster wants the dates. Put that action first.

Write the offer in the bio line as well. A QR scan drops them on the page with no caption from Instagram to explain it.

Keep the code after the campaign

Leave the code in place and change the page. A schedule can show a festival button only on the days it is true.

If you change your username, the old code breaks. Pick the name before you print.

Questions

Does the QR code open a different page?
No. It opens the published page, the same one as the bio link, unless you point that code at a single button.
Are scans counted?
Yes. A scan is stored with the page. A zero means no scan was stored in that period.
