How to Get a TikTok Follower Link

Finding your TikTok follower link is the first step toward sharing your profile, collaborating with others, and growing an audience that loves what you do. This guide gets straight to it, showing you exactly where to find that link, how to customize it, and the smartest ways to use it to gain a more engaged community.

What Exactly is a "TikTok Follower Link?"

Let's clear things up right away. When people talk about a "TikTok follower link," they are almost always referring to their personal TikTok profile URL. This is the simple, direct web address that leads people straight to your TikTok profile page.

It’s important to understand this: there's no secret link that automatically forces someone to follow you. That would be pretty invasive, right? The goal is to get your unique profile link and make it incredibly easy for people to find you, enjoy your content, and then tap that "Follow" button because they want to.

Think of your profile link as the digital front door to your TikTok world. When someone clicks it, they can see your bio, watch your videos, and decide to become part of your community. Your job is to find that link, polish it up, and place it where a potential follower is most likely to see it.

How to Find Your TikTok Profile Link (The Step-by-Step Guide)

Getting your hands on your profile link is straightforward, whether you're on your phone or computer. Here are the exact steps for each.

On a Mobile Device (iPhone or Android)

Most creators manage their TikTok accounts from their phones. Here's the quickest way to find and copy your link:

1. Open the TikTok App: Launch the app and make sure you're logged into your account.
2. Go to Your Profile: Tap the "Profile" icon located in the bottom-right corner of the main screen.
3. Tap "Edit Profile": This button is located directly below your follower count and bio.
4. Find Your Profile Link: About halfway down the "Edit Profile" screen, you'll see a section labeled "Profile URL" with your link next to it. It will look something like this: tiktok.com/@yourusername.
5. Copy the Link: To the right of the URL, there is a small copy icon (it looks like two overlapping squares). Tap this icon, and the link will be instantly copied to your phone's clipboard, ready to be pasted anywhere.

Pro-Tip: There's another quick method for sharing. From your main profile page, tap the three-line menu icon (the "hamburger" menu) in the top-right corner. Then, go to "Settings and privacy" >, "Share profile." From here, you can directly copy the link or share it to other apps like Messages, Instagram, or WhatsApp.

On a Desktop Computer

If you prefer using TikTok on a desktop or laptop, grabbing your link is just as easy:

1. Navigate to TikTok.com: Open your favorite web browser and head to the TikTok website.
2. Log In to Your Account: If you're not already logged in, do that now.
3. View Your Profile: In the top-right corner of the screen, click on your profile picture. A dropdown menu will appear. Click on "View profile."
4. Copy the URL: Your browser will now be on your TikTok profile page. Simply highlight and copy the full URL from the address bar at the top of your browser. It should look like this: https://www.tiktok.com/@yourusername.

Now that you have your link, the next step is making sure it's one you can be proud to share.

Before You Share: Customizing Your TikTok Username

Your TikTok link is generated directly from your username (@yourusername). So, before you start sharing it all over the internet, take a moment to make sure your username is strong, descriptive, and memorable. A generic username like `@user1837482` won't do much to inspire clicks and follows.

Here’s what makes a great TikTok username:

• It's Simple and Memorable: A good username is easy to read, say, and spell. Avoid complicated numbers or underscore combinations if you can.
• It's On-Brand: Your username should instantly tell people who you are or what you're about. If you're a business, use your business name. If you're a creator in a specific niche (like baking or fitness), try to include that keyword.
• It's Consistent: This is a big one. If you want people from other platforms to find you, use the same username across Instagram, X, YouTube, and TikTok. This creates a cohesive brand identity and makes you easily searchable everywhere.

To change your username, just go to your Profile >, Edit profile >, Username. Be mindful, however: TikTok only lets you change your username once every 30 days, so choose one you'll be happy with for a while!

You Have Your Link. Now What? 7 Smart Ways to Use It

Simply having the link isn't enough. The real growth comes from strategically placing it where potential followers are already spending their time. Think of it as building bridges from your other online outposts directly to your TikTok profile.

1. Your Instagram Bio

This is the most popular and arguably most effective place to put your TikTok link. Since Instagram's "one link" rule is quite restrictive, use a "link in bio" tool like Linktree, Beacons, or Later to create a simple landing page. Here, you can feature your TikTok link alongside your website, other social profiles, and any products you're promoting.

2. Your Other Social Media Profiles

Don't stop at Instagram. Every social profile you have is an opportunity.

• X (formerly Twitter): Add your TikTok link to the "website" field in your profile.
• Facebook: Include it in the "About" section of your personal profile or business Page.
• LinkedIn: Place it in the "Contact Info" section of your profile, especially if your TikTok content aligns with your professional brand.
• Pinterest: Add your TikTok URL to your Pinterest profile to drive cross-platform discovery.

3. Your Email Signature

This is a subtle but powerful marketing tool that's often overlooked. Add a small text link or a TikTok logo linked to your profile in your email signature. Every email you send to clients, partners, or customers becomes a passive promotion for your content.

4. Your Website or Blog

Your website is your home base online, so make it easy for your visitors to find you on TikTok. Add social media icons to your website's header or footer that link directly to your profiles. For an even bigger impact, write blog posts that embed some of your best-performing TikTok videos and include a clear call-to-action: "Follow us on TikTok for more!"

5. Your YouTube Channel

If you create long-form video content on YouTube, your audience is already primed to enjoy video. Make sure your TikTok profile link is included in the description box of every single YouTube video you upload. Mention it verbally in your videos as well, telling viewers they can find more behind-the-scenes or short-form content by following you on TikTok.

6. Business Cards and Marketing Materials

For in-person networking or direct mail, links alone aren't enough. This is where QR codes come in. You can generate a QR code from your TikTok profile link for free using many online tools. Place this scannable code on your business cards, flyers, posters, or even product packaging. It makes the jump from the physical world to your digital profile seamless.

7. During Events, Webinars, or Presentations

When you're speaking or presenting, you have a captive audience. Take advantage of it! At the end of your presentation, put up a final slide that includes your social handles and a large QR code linked directly to your TikTok. It gives the audience an immediate, actionable step to connect with you.

Beyond the Link: The Power of Your TikTok QR Code

As mentioned above, TikTok makes sharing your profile incredibly easy with a built-in QR code feature. This is a visual, scannable version of your follower link that's perfect for when a clickable link isn't an option.

Here’s how to find and use your personal TikTok QR code:

1. Navigate to your "Profile" screen.
2. Tap the three-line menu icon in the top-right corner.
3. Select "My QR code."

TikTok will generate a unique, downloadable QR code for your profile. You can customize the background color to match your branding. This is great for an instant share between phones or for saving as an image file to use in your designs. Think creatively: put it on a T-shirt, a coffee shop menu, or the back of your laptop. Anywhere people can point their phone camera, they can become a follower.
