Clover - Instagram Landing Page

What is an Instagram landing page?

An Instagram landing page is the page that your followers will "land at" (on mobile phones) when they click the link in your bio. Custom Instagram landing pages have become incredibly popular and they're a great way to direct your followers to multiple different locations (a link to your awesome free ebook, your services page, your blog, etc). You can use a third-party service to create an Instagram landing page, but your customization options are limited and you can only add a plain list of links. No fun!

With the Custom Instagram Landing Page, you can add any content you want! Here are some ideas:

  • Custom link list
  • Subscription form (using a Genesis eNews widget)
  • Social media icons
  • An image of yourself and a bio
  • Your latest blog posts with images
  • Text, info, or disclaimer
  • Advertisements
  • And anything else you want!

If you imported the demo content, you can skip this step.

  1. In your WordPress dashboard, create a new page at Pages > Add New. Give the page a title, such as Instagram.
  2. On the right under Template, select the Instagram template. Publish the page.

Adding Widgets to the Instagram Landing Page
