Lnky

The fastest way to share yourself.

Lnky is something I've wanted for a few years now: an easy to set up page with no one else's branding, a neutral design, and a short link. Like a business card, but for all your channels on the web. This is a side project that I'm proud to finally ship. I'd love to know what you think!

This is awesome. If you could add support for an icon for Medium that would be great. And yes - I think an e-mail signature is where I'd most likely want this page to go. Not the link to this page - but the page itself (obviously in much smaller form). I'm not sure where else I'd put this or send to people. I suppose it could be a link on my b-card or in my email. I'll have to experiment.

@aaronedell These are all great ideas. I want to build the theme chooser as a mini live preview, wouldn't be too hard to reuse that functionality to make an image for email signatures – the issue is it would only contain one link. Another idea I've been tossing around with friends is connecting Moo.com's NFC business cards to my Lnky page. As far as Medium, I'll have it in the near future – for the initial release I opted to stick with what symbolset gave me out of the box. Thanks!

@nickisnoble I dig! Yeah, e-mail sigs would be hard thinking more about it unless it was something you could copy and paste into a text field. Yeah, I'll try and keep thinking of more use cases. I love the idea, but finding a place it fits will be key. For now, I may just add my lnky to the bottom of my e-mails and other public-facing blogs and posts etc.

This would be helpful to include in my email sig and social media profile bios

Pros:

Took seconds to set up, love the simplicity of the design

Cons:

None yet

Thanks for hunting @nickisnoble I really love the simple design and how it took me seconds to sign up, will you be working on SEO on this project, so people's lnky profiles show up when searched?
Nick Noble
@abadesi yes, that's definitely a goal! Search optimization, faster page loads, more design options, and even things like personal analytics or custom calls to action are all things I'd like to work on in the near future. It all depends on what the users want! (Or if it even picks up any steam 😉). Thanks for the feedback!

What a great little tool - and easy to use. It would be good to see the option of a Facebook profile versus a Facebook page and also Facebook Messenger. And the option to re-order would be helpful. Added to my curations!
Nick Noble
@krishnade Thank you! Re-ordering is coming up soon! For the initial release, I decided to stick with what was supported out-of-the-box by Symbolset. As far as multiple icons for different services provided by the same brand, I'd love that too. Other things I'm looking into are the ability to have scannable codes (ie. messenger or snapchat) in place of certain icons, and the ability to upload custom icons (for your company etc). I'd love it if you wouldn't mind weighing in at https://feedback.lnky.io !

@nickisnoble You are welcome - I hope you add all your users onto an email list to let us know of new updates. Looking forward to seeing what you develop further.
Nick Noble
@krishnade Sorry I'm late, I'm still working on that email list! I just wanted to tell you I just pushed a big update which happens to add 20+ new platforms, including Messenger!
Krishna De
@nickisnoble Great - thanks for the update!
Krishna De
@nickisnoble I just added Messenger to my profile - it might be helpful for users to see a lit on the settings page of the different links you support to help them build out their profile

Love it @nickisnoble! Super simple...legitimately takes 60 secs to set up. Excited to see this progress...it's reminds me of when About.me came about...really really simple personal profile. If anyone is curious what they look like, here is the link to the my LNKY https://lnky.io/crowe

Thanks @seancrowe5, that looks great with the Emojis 😉! That's one of the reasons this got built. About me had too many options, add you had to pay more than it was worth (for me at least) to remove branding.
