How to Put Your VSCO in Your Instagram Bio

Thinking about connecting your VSCO gallery to your Instagram bio? You're in the right place. It's a simple move that neatly ties your creative platforms together, giving your followers a deeper look at your work. This guide will walk you through exactly how to find your VSCO profile link and place it perfectly in your Instagram bio, plus offer a few tips to make it even more effective.

Why Link Your VSCO to Your Instagram Bio Anyway?

Before we get into the step-by-step, let's talk about the "why." Connecting your VSCO and Instagram profiles is more than just adding a link, it's a smart strategy for building a stronger personal brand. Instagram might be your main stage, but VSCO is often the behind-the-scenes gallery where your unique editing style and creative vision really shine. By linking the two, you're not just sharing more photos - you're telling a more complete story about who you are as a creator.

Here's what you gain by making this small change:

• Showcase Your Full Portfolio: Instagram's grid is curated, but VSCO offers a different kind of freedom. Use it to display a wider range of your photography, your best edits, and images that build a specific mood or aesthetic that might not fit perfectly on your main grid.
• Create a Cohesive Brand Experience: When followers click from your IG to your VSCO and see a consistent style, it reinforces your brand. It shows you have a distinct point of view, which builds trust and authority with your audience.
• Drive Quality Engagement: The people who take the time to click a link in your bio are your most engaged followers. You're giving them a way to connect more deeply with your content, turning casual viewers into a dedicated community.
• Keep Your Instagram Bio Clean: By channeling traffic to your VSCO, you keep your Instagram focused on its core purpose while still providing an outlet for your followers to see more dedicated creative work.

Ultimately, it's a low-effort, high-impact way to add another dimension to your social media presence. You're cross-promoting platforms where you've invested creative energy and making it easy for people to find and appreciate it.

Step 1: How to Find Your VSCO Profile Link

First things first, you need to grab the right link. This can sometimes feel hidden if you don't know where to look. Your VSCO profile has a unique URL, just like any other social media profile, and you can find it using either the mobile app or a desktop web browser.

Finding Your Link on the VSCO Mobile App (iOS and Android)

Most of us use VSCO on our phones, so this is likely the quickest method. The steps are nearly identical for both iPhone and Android devices.

1. Open the VSCO app on your phone.
2. Navigate to your profile by tapping your profile icon, which is typically found in the bottom-right corner of the main navigation bar.
3. Once you're on your profile page (where you see your own grid of images), look for a sharing icon. This icon might look like a box with an arrow pointing up (iOS) or the classic three-dot share symbol (Android). It's usually located in the top-right corner of the screen.
4. Tap the icon. This will bring up a menu of sharing options.
5. Look for an option that says "Copy URL" or "Copy Link." Tap it, and the link to your public VSCO profile will be copied to your phone's clipboard. Voila!

You now have your link ready to paste directly into Instagram.

Finding Your Link on the VSCO Desktop Website

If you prefer using your computer, finding your link is even more straightforward.

1. Open your web browser and go to vsco.co.
2. Log in to your account with your credentials.
3. Once logged in, click on your profile picture or name, usually located in the top-right corner of the page. Then click "My Profile" or navigate to your public gallery view.
4. Look at the URL in your browser's address bar. It will be something like https://vsco.co/yourusername/gallery.
5. That's it! That is your direct public profile link. Simply highlight the entire URL and copy it (you can right-click and choose "Copy" or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C or Cmd+C).

Step 2: Adding Your VSCO Link to Your Instagram Bio

Now that your VSCO profile link is copied to your clipboard, it's time to head over to Instagram. This part is a breeze. Just remember, the best place for a clickable link is in the dedicated "Website" or "Links" section of your profile, not in the main text of your bio itself.

Here's how to do it:

1. Open the Instagram app and go to your profile page by tapping your profile picture in the bottom-right corner.
2. Below your bio and follower count, tap the "Edit profile" button.
3. You'll see several fields you can edit, like your name, username, pronouns, and bio. Look for the field labeled "Links." Tap it.
4. On the next screen, tap "Add external link."
5. Paste your VSCO profile URL into the "URL" field. You can also give it a title, like "My VSCO Gallery" or simply "VSCO," which helps followers know what they're clicking.
6. Once pasted, tap the check mark or "Done" button in the top-right corner to save your link.
7. Go back to your profile to make sure the link appears correctly and is clickable. Give it a test click to ensure it directs people to your VSCO page!

And that's all there is to it. Your VSCO gallery is now officially linked to your Instagram profile.

Tips to Make Your VSCO Link More Effective

Simply adding the link works, but a little bit of strategy can turn that link into a real traffic driver for your creative work.

Use a Clear Call-to-Action (CTA)

Don't just let the link sit there. Tell people why they should click it! Add a line in your bio text that points to your new link. This creates a clear and inviting path for your followers.

Examples of good CTAs:

• "My favorite edits live here ↓"
• "👉 See my full photo gallery on VSCO:"
• "For more daily shots, check out my VSCO ↓"
• "Creator & photographer | My VSCO ->"

Using an arrow emoji (→ or ➜) is a great visual cue that really works to guide people's eyes toward the link.

Consider a "Link in Bio" Management Tool

What if you want to link to your VSCO, your professional portfolio, your latest blog post, and your shop? Instagram only gives you one primary link spot (though you can now add a few). This is where link-in-bio tools come in handy. Tools like Linktree, Beacons, or Linkin.bio by Later allow you to create a simple landing page that houses multiple links.

You can create a custom link-in-bio page and add a button for your VSCO, your YouTube channel, your portfolio - anything. Your Instagram bio link then directs to this landing page, giving your followers a collection of curated destinations.

Ensure Your Brand Vision is Consistent

This is less of a technical tip and more of a branding one. If someone clicks from your carefully curated Instagram to a messy or neglected VSCO, it creates a disconnect. Before you link, take a moment to tidy up your VSCO grid. Make sure the aesthetic and quality of your work align with the vibe you project on Instagram. Consistency across platforms is what builds a memorable and professional brand.

Final Thoughts

Connecting your VSCO and Instagram accounts is a simple and effective way to build a unified brand, showcase more of your creative work, and give your biggest fans more of what they love. By following these steps, you can get your link set up in minutes and start directing engaged followers straight to your favorite photos.
