Linktree solved 'one link for everything.' But in 2026 a stacked button list is a branding dead end. Here's why I moved to a homepage.

The sameness problem

Every link page looks identical. You and a competitor using the same template are indistinguishable. You rent the design; you don't own it.

A homepage compounds

  • Indexed by Google (ranks for your name)
  • Loads fast, shows your work
  • Permanent asset, not a rented widget

Migration is low-risk

Point bio link to homepage, keep old page as fallback, migrate over a week.

Switched last month. Search impressions up, bounce down. Your take?
