HYDLNK vs Linktree
Both make a link in bio page. They differ on where the page lives, when the logo can come off and how much of the page you can design. Every Linktree detail below links to where we read it.

Where each one is the better fit
A comparison page that only praises its own product isn’t much use. Here is where Linktree is ahead, and what HYDLNK is for.
Where Linktree is ahead
- Linktree connects to a Shopify store and shows up to 6 products on your page, on all plans. HYDLNK has no Shopify connection; you add your products as links.
- Linktree Premium keeps analytics for all time. HYDLNK keeps up to a year.
What HYDLNK is for
- Design control: every block and every theme option works the same on Free as on Pro, so a free page can look finished.
- A page that sits on your own domain at $60 a year, with no cut of your sales.
- Analytics you can take with you: CSV export on every plan, with 30 days of history on Free and a year on Pro.
