Your Instagram bio gives you 150 characters to explain who you are, what you offer, and why people should follow you.

As far as history goes, we’re living in charmed times — but Shakespeare never had to write an Instagram bio (and let’s face it, the man wasn’t known for being concise). Typing those fateful words into your profile is stressful, and for good reason: your Instagram bio is often the first place other users will look when they’re deciding whether or not to follow you.

Here’s everything you need to know about Instagram bios, and how to write one worthy of a three-act play. Wherefore art thou bio?

What is an Instagram bio?

A bio on Instagram is a description of your account that can be up to 150 characters long and sits at the very top of your profile page, next to your profile picture. It’s a snapshot of your Instagram account and a quick way to show users who you are and what you’re about.

Because of the limited character count, an Instagram bio needs to be concise, easy to read and informative… but don’t be afraid to have fun with it. Emojis and jokes are fair game, even for professionals using the platform. After reading your bio, people should understand what you do and why they should follow you.

What makes a good bio for Instagram?

A good Instagram bio is a bio that users can’t resist interacting with, whether it’s by slamming that “follow” button, scrolling through (and liking and commenting on) your content, watching your story highlights or sending your Instagram profile to friends. The best Instagram bios are short and sweet, and genuinely convey your personality as a creator or brand.

For more details, watch our video on making the PERFECT Instagram bio:

When you’re dreaming up your bio, try asking yourself these questions — especially if you’re using Instagram for business :

  • What is your brand promise?
  • How about your brand personality: Funny? Serious? Informative? Playful?
  • What are your special skills?
  • Are you a local business? National? Global?
  • What makes your product or service unique?
  • What is the first thing you want people to do after they visit your profile?

On that last point: All good marketing materials should include a clear and compelling call to action . Good Insta bios are no exception. Give visitors clear direction if you want them to click the link in your bio, follow your account or take a different specific action.

You might want to add a link to your bio to send people to a page where they can buy your products, or you might have a different conversion goal in mind. Maybe you want people to Like your Facebook page , follow you on TikTok or sign up for your newsletter.

If your goal is to build an Instagram following , your call to action might be simply to ask visitors to press that follow button, or to share their photos with a branded hashtag .

1. Funny Instagram bios

Unfortunately, there’s nothing less funny than trying to be funny. The key to a comedic Instagram bio is keeping honest, like this one from a drink brand.

Playing to your audience — and embracing how they see your brand — is another way to get laughs.

And when all else fails, being quippy and somewhat vague is also a good source of comedy. If chaos is your brand, embrace it.

2. Instagram bio quotes

Using Instagram bio quotes can be a great way to express an idea or create a feeling of connection.

You could use a saying, a line from a poem or song, or any phrase that will mean something to potential followers. Just make sure to give credit where credit is due if you use someone else’s words.

The Quotations Page is a good place to start your search for good Instagram bio quotes.

Here are 15 quote ideas you can copy and paste directly into your Instagram bio.

  • Happiness depends upon ourselves – Aristotle
  • We’re all born naked and the rest is drag – RuPaul
  • Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time – Barack Obama
  • I’d rather regret the things I’ve done than regret the things I haven’t done – Lucille Ball
  • Imagination is more important than knowledge – Albert Einstein
  • You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take – Wayne Gretzky
  • Cherish forever what makes you unique, cuz you’re really a yawn if it goes – Bette Midler
  • If you don’t like the road you’re walking, start paving another one – Dolly Parton
  • Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game – Babe Ruth
  • I am a rich man – Cher
  • You can be the lead in your own life – Kerry Washington
  • When the whole world is silent, even one voice becomes powerful – Malala Yousafzai

3. Creative Instagram bios

A bio may only be 150 characters, but that’s more than enough to stretch that creative muscle. During the launch of Netflix’s Heartstopper , the company changed their bio to an invite for the main actors to start a band.

This bio from Crocs is so creative, it takes a second to understand — we’ll let you read it before spoiling.

Did you get it? It’s “If you ain’t Croc-ing, you ain’t rocking.”

If you can’t make up your mind, do it all. Insta-famous Italian greyhound Tika has emojis, a quote from Lizzo, “Fashion Model” and “Gay Icon” status, and a link to her book in her bio. Impressive (but not as impressive as a dog writing a book).

4. Cool Instagram bios

“All your friends are so cool, you go out every night” — Olivia Rodrigo. Who is pretty cool herself: this short, informative and rhyming bio says it all.

Olivia Rodrigo Instagram Bio

Another way to up the cool factor: commit an ultimate branding faux pas and don’t introduce yourself in an easily identifiable way. For example, most folks would identify Serena Williams as a tennis superstar. In her Instagram bio, she’s simply “Olympia’s mom.” It feels very true to her, and that’s cool.

Serena Williams Instagram Bio

There’s a pattern here — ”cool” and “short” go hand-in-hand. If you want a cool bio for Instagram, being too wordy won’t help. If that’s what you’re going for, try and be as concise as possible. Like Lizzo.

5. Short Instagram bios

Speaking of short — if you don’t need 150 characters, don’t use them. Dating app Bumble’s bio simply prompts folks to make the first move.

Fewer words makes the words you do use more powerful, and really makes a statement.

Bob the Drag Queen Instagram Bio

Or, you can go in a totally opposite direction and write a short bio that few, if any, will understand. You do you.

6. Clever Instagram bios

A clever Instagram bio will score a chuckle (and hopefully a follow) from users. Stay self aware and lighthearted, and the cleverness will come. Old Spice’s bio is a play on the bizarre masculinity that’s present in men’s deodorant branding.

Tiffany Haddish hypes herself, but stays humble in her Instagram bio.

And sometimes, the cleverest route is the simplest: in a world of people trying to be as cool as possible, artist Allie Brosh just tells it like it is, and really stands out.

7. Instagram bios with emojis

Emojis are like cheating (the good kind). When words fail, emojis are there. Designers Josh and Matt describe their relationship, career, home base and pets all in a single line of emojis.

You can also use emojis like bullet points for a super-aesthetic look.

Or, go with the classic (if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it) and substitute emojis for the words they represent — hearts for love, etc.

8. Instagram business bios

If you’re using Instagram for business, a bio can be a great place to introduce yourself (more and more folks are using social media to research brands ). Kraft peanut butter has a great example of a succinct bio that describes their company.

Businesses can also use their bio to describe their brand ethos, and what makes them different from others in the industry.

If you’re doing affiliate marketing or partnering with other businesses, a bio is a good place to put discount codes or promotions related to those affiliations.

9. Instagram bios with links

Your link in bio is a rich place for users to gain more resources and information about your brand. Make sure your audience sees it by pointing to it. Yeah, we mean literally. Clothing brand Free Label uses their bio to identify what the link is (in this case, a path to their latest launch).

In a similar fashion, artist Zoe Si uses her bio to point to her latest book, which is accessible through her link in bio.

10. Informative Instagram bios

Sometimes, you just want the facts. Having the answer to your most frequently asked questions — in the example below, that’s probably “When are you open?” — can pay off. It might not be fun, but it’s simple and clear.

13 Instagram bio tricks you may not know about

Hungry for more? We got you. Here are some tips to make sure you have the best bio for Instagram.

1. Use fancy Instagram bio fonts

Technically, you can only use one “font” in your Instagram bio. But there are tools out there that will help you create the look of a custom font by mapping your text to existing special characters.

Here’s an example of what Hootsuite writer Christine’s bio looks like in a few different fonts, as created using the tool Instagram Fonts .

Instagram bio fonts

That third one is a little bonkers, but you could pick and choose a few words to incorporate strategically for visual appeal. In general, it’s a good idea to use this trick sparingly, for emphasis, rather than dressing your entire bio up in fancy fonts.

Once you find a font style you like, just copy and paste it into your Instagram bio.

2. Use Instagram bio symbols

We’ve already talked about using emojis. But you can also go old-school and use special text symbols to break ★ up ★ your ★ bio. (Remember Wingdings and Webdings? How very 1990s.)

This trick uses the same principle as the tip above, but instead of using symbols to create the look of a custom font, you can use them as retro emojis or unique bullet points:

The easiest way to find your special character is to open a new Google Doc, then click Insert and choose Special characters.

Insert special characters

You can scroll through the available options, search by keyword, or even draw a shape to find a similar character. Then, just copy and paste into your Instagram bio.

3. Add a location

This is particularly useful for businesses: customers will want to know who (and where) they’re buying from. Marking your location can also help your brand be more searchable.

When you add your address to your Instagram business profile, it also appears below your bio but does not use up any of your bio character count. This is another great way to free up space for more compelling bio information. Be warned, your address only shows up on mobile.

4. Add contact buttons

Business profiles can include contact information in the form of buttons that allow people to phone you, email you, or get directions to your business directly from Instagram. This is another one that only shows up on mobile.

5. Add a call to action button

Another mobile-only feature: You can encourage people to take action straight from your Instagram bio with CTA buttons. These allow your followers to take direct actions like ordering food from your restaurant, or buying tickets for your event.

You’ll find these options under Action Buttons when editing your business profile.

6. Add a link in bio

You get one clickable link in your Instagram bio. Since you can’t use clickable links in Instagram feed posts (unless you’re using Instagram ads or Instagram Shopping ), your bio link is valuable real estate.

You can change the URL as often as you like. You might want to link to your newest or most important content (like your latest blog post or video), a special campaign, or a landing page specifically for visitors coming from Instagram .

You can also use Instagram tools like Hootbio to set up a mobile landing page with multiple links. That way, you don’t have to keep updating the link in your Instagram bio, which can lead to outdated “link in bio” statements on older posts.

To get started with Hootbio, sign in to your Hootsuite account and navigate to the Create section of the dashboard. There, select Hootbio from the menu.

Note: Hootbio is available to Team, Business, and Enterprise plan Hootsuite users. If you are a Professional plan user, upgrade now to access this feature.

Navigating to the Hootbio section in the Hootsuite dashboard

To build your Hootbio page, start with basic profile information:

  • Profile name. This will show up as the heading at the top of your page.
  • Profile description. This is the subtitle text located below your profile name.
  • Profile picture. We recommend using an image aligned with the branding of your Instagram account to keep the look of your bio page familiar and on-brand.
  • Your website. This is where you create a URL for your link in bio page. We will let you know if a URL has already been claimed by someone else.

Then, add your links. Every link has to include a URL and text that will be displayed on the button. You can also add images to links, but this feature is optional.

To change the order of links on your page, simply drag and drop them using the triple bar icon.

When you’re done, click Update in the top right corner of the page.

You can also direct followers to your other social accounts — or your email inbox — using dedicated buttons.

Head to the Social section of the menu to set up links for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, Messenger, and email .

To save your changes, click Update in the top right corner of the dashboard.

In the Design section, you can customize the design of your Hootbio page. Pick one of the recommended color themes, or customize your font, button, and background colors to make the page truly yours.

When you’re done — you guessed it — click Update in the top right corner of your screen.

That’s it! Your Hootbio page is ready. To start using it, copy the link displayed in the top right corner of the dashboard, and paste it into your Instagram and TikTok bios. You can update your bio whenever you need, but note that URL edits are restricted to once every six months.

7. Use your bio to direct traffic to another platform or website

If your primary social media is on a different platform and you consider Instagram a necessary evil, that’s okay — you can use your bio as a way to direct other users to that platform.

Comedian Ziwe Fumudoh rarely posts on Instagram, but is very active on TikTok, so she uses her bio to steer audiences towards that app.

Lush, weirdly, “departed” from social media but still has an active Instagram and uses their link in bio to explain why they’re not online.

8. Use line breaks

People don’t tend to read information online. Instead, they scan for bite-sized chunks of information.

Make that information easy to identify using line breaks.

Okoko Cosmetiques uses a combination of emojis and line breaks to create this cute Instagram bio:

It’s really easy to add line breaks using the Instagram web interface. Simply space your bio as you would like it to appear.

On mobile, your best bet is to create your bio with the spacing you want using a notes app. Then, copy and paste it into your Instagram bio field. Or, use one of the Instagram bio templates below.

9. Share your pronouns

If you want to, it’s great to share your pronouns on Instagram. Since the option was first added in May 2021 , it’s become customary on the app to add your pronouns to your bio, whether you’re cisgender, transgender or nonbinary. Displaying your pronouns means your followers will know how to properly address you, and normalizing the practice helps make everyone feels more comfortable on the platform.

10. Use Hashtags

Hashtags in your Instagram bio are clickable links. Keep in mind, though, that Instagram bios do not appear in hashtag search results. Adding Instagram hashtags to your bio won’t make it more discoverable.

That means you should not include hashtags unless they are directly related to your business, because each one represents an opportunity for potential followers to click away.

However, adding a branded hashtag to your bio is a great way to promote and collect user-generated content.

This is one of the best ways for businesses to use hashtags in their bio. When a user clicks on the hashtag, they will see all the content your fans and followers have posted, which creates excellent social proof for your business .

Branded hashtags are also a great way to get more content: you can reshare follower’s posts that use the hashtag. In fact, some users build their entire following off of user-submitted posts.

11. Use your bio to link to other accounts

If you have a personal and a business account, or you’re involved in a cool project that has its own handle, you can tag that account in your bio. This can help people identify you (Oh, THAT’S where I know Zendaya from) but be careful using them, as they may encourage audiences to navigate away from your page. (This is something Zendaya likely does not care about).

12. Add a category

If you have a business profile on Instagram , you can choose a category for your business. This appears under your name and can help people see what you do at a glance.

Elmo, for example, is a public figure.

Using a category for your business can free up space in your Instagram bio, since you don’t need to repeat this information. However, it only appears in the mobile view, so you can’t assume everyone will see it.

13. Announce news

As long as you remember to update your bio regularly, you can use it to announce news about new products and updates for your brand. If you’re going to put a date in your bio, though, mark your calendar or set a reminder to change it. If you have an old date in your bio, it makes your account look like it’s not being monitored closely.

Feeling stuck on how to write an Instagram bio? It happens to the best of us. After all, those 150 characters can make or break the growth of your audience! 

Your Instagram bio is the first thing people notice when they go to your profile (and we assume there is no need to re-introduce the critical importance of the first impression ). It’s also where you introduce your brand to potential customers, create personal connections, and (hopefully) drive a considerable amount of traffic to your business.

Whew! That’s a lot of pressure for a few lines of text! But don’t worry, we’re here to help you assemble the perfect Instagram bio for your brand.

In this post, we’ll look at how to:

  • Write a creative bio on Instagram
  • Describe what your business does
  • Give customers a reason to follow, like, share — and convert!

We will also look at our favorite secret weapon  Smart.bio and how it can make your profile pop!

Screenshot of an Instagram quiz that will assign you the perfect instagram bio.

What is an Instagram Bio?

Your Instagram bio is the section on your profile page where you include a brief description about yourself, your business, your brand, and/or the purpose of your Instagram account. Your bio is found beneath your Instagram profile name.

Your Instagram bio helps people engage with your profile, and within your Instagram bio there are countless ways to get creative.

Here’s what a bio should include:

  • a short description 
  • contact information
  • a website URL

One thing is for certain: for the  best Instagram profile  possible, you’ll need to keep your bio short and sweet in order to stay under the bio’s 150-character limit. 

But don’t worry — Instagram bios aren’t set in stone. If you like some of our Instagram bio ideas, you can tweak your bio!

Our Formula: How to Write an Instagram Bio in 6 Steps

An Instagram bio is what people see first when they visit your page, so it needs to stand out!

You have just seconds to leave a great impression and convince someone to follow you.

Check out the six steps from our  Instagram bio tips  for making a great first impression!

How to Make an Instagram Bio: The Tailwind Edition

An infographic detailing the six essential steps to optimizing your instagram bio.

Think of your Instagram bio as a short and sweet cover letter. 

Here are our best ideas to make your Instagram bio a killer success:

1. Add keywords and descriptive words to your profile name

You know how the saying goes. What’s in a name? 

The opportunity to brand your Instagram bio even more, that’s what!

Technically, you have two names on Instagram that hang  above your Instagram bio . One is your Instagram handle, which you choose when you sign up for Instagram and have to change in your Settings. The other is your Instagram profile name!

Check out where the two appear on travel blogger Helen Sula’s Instagram page below, where “heleneinbetween” is the handle. 

Your profile name shows up in bold right above your Instagram bio, just like a little heading. If you wanted to, you could just put your company or brand name in this line. However, you might be missing out on a few extra opportunities to brand your profile and attract more followers if you stop there!

Screenshot of Instagram bio for Helene Sula, Travel and Lifestyle blogger.

You have 30 available characters in this line (including emojis!), and it’s a great place to describe what you do, who you are, or what you’re all about. Including relevant keywords and descriptive words in your Instagram bio makes it so much easier for your audience to find you. For example, if you’re a hairstylist, adding your profession — “hairstylist” — and the city you’re located in your profile name makes it super easy for people looking for a hairstylist in your city to find your Instagram account.

2. Use your bio to quickly convey what followers can expect from your page and what’s in it for them

Did we mention that your Instagram bio has a character limit? Don’t waste this valuable real estate on unnecessary details. For example, there’s no need to restate your name here; instead, focus on providing any details that you didn’t get across in your profile picture and name line!

The Instagram bio is the perfect place to highlight significant details about who you are, what you do, and how you use your Instagram profile in an attention-grabbing way. Your bio is usually the last thing people read before making a decision to follow you OR click on the link in your bio! 

Here are a few Instagram bio ideas to get users interested in your profile:

  • Your job title and/or the company you work for, if not mentioned in your profile name
  • Any awards or things you’re “known for” 
  • Hobbies or your brand’s core services/specialties
  • Contact information (if relevant)
  • How often you provide new content to give your followers an idea of when to tune in
  • What type of content your followers can expect from your Instagram account
  • A CTA in your bio (keep reading to learn about adding multiple links from your bio)

To make the most out of your bio space, be sure to  use different words (not the same ones as in your name line) to further describe your brand focus or blog content .

After you focus on the message you want to convey with your Instagram bio, you’ll want to format it for easy readability and understanding. After all, you have just a few seconds to get the attention of a new follower or customer! 

See our creative Instagram bio ideas and formatting tips below.

Should you use hashtags in your Instagram bio?

We get this question a lot. Using a hashtag in your Instagram bio depends on what you want to portray within the summary of what your Instagram profile is about. You can add hashtags and mentions to your Instagram bio to create a clickable hyperlink.

However, hashtags in your Instagram bio don’t guarantee that your profile will automatically appear in that search stream. If you include a hashtag in your Instagram bio, users will be able to click on that hashtag and see all of the posts using that hashtag — not just yours.

If you’ve created a hashtag specifically for your community or business, it’s a great idea to include it in your Instagram bio so your Instagram followers (and profile visitors) can see it — and it’s also a great spot to collect user-generated content! 

Adding a user mention works the same way in your Instagram bio (by creating a clickable hyperlink) and is a great way to introduce the face or faces behind your brand. Linking your personal Instagram handle idea is a great Instagram bio idea — it’s a little clue for curious browsers!

3. Use line breaks and emojis to make your bio look neat and easy to read!

Nothing turns off readers faster than a thick wall of text. A block of words might just make your followers’ eyes (and brains!) tired before they even begin. Good Instagram bios include line breaks and slashes.

Lettering artist Dawn Nicole does this really well in her Instagram bio:

Screenshot of Dawn Nicole's Instagram bio. Handle @bydawnnicole.

When you type your Instagram bio, make sure to remove any spaces before and after each sentence that you want to put a line break around. Then hit return. (If you’re on an Apple device, tap the number button in the lower-left corner of your keyboard to find your return button!) This will move the next sentence down to its own line. 

You can create full line breaks in between each sentence by adding emojis, slashes or periods.

For a more creative bio, try switching out some words and phrases with relevant emojis to spark visual interest and create a refreshing reset for your viewer’s eyes!

4. Include a strong call-to-action (CTA) to send your followers somewhere to learn even more about you!

The next element of a perfectly branded Instagram bio is an important one! It’s the next step your followers or visitors should take to learn even more about your product, blog, or brand. 

Most often, this would be going to your website or another location to view more of your content. That’s why it’s so handy to include a link in your bio by adding a relevant URL.

Here’s how to add a link to your Instagram bio:

Step 1: Log in to Instagram

Step 2: Click on your profile photo in the bottom right corner (this brings you to your profile)

Step 3: Press  Edit Profile

Step 4: In the space next to  Website,  enter your URL

Step 5: Hit  Done

5. Use a “link in bio” tool to showcase more than one link for ultimate traffic conversion

While you can put a link in your bio directly to your website URL, this isn’t always the best idea, especially if you want to direct followers to a certain page or promotion. Instead, many Instagram users choose a “link in bio” tool that acts as a landing page for multiple links, including links shared with each post!

Tailwind’s FREE  Smart.bio  tool does just that! In a matter of moments you can create a clean, branded link in your bio (it looks like this: smart.bio/yourusernamehere) so that your followers enjoy a branded experience from start to finish.

When choosing a “link in bio” tool, it’s important to choose one that doesn’t create a distracting, lengthy link in your bio. Even better, a “link in bio” tool that allows you to create your own custom URL can keep your Instagram bio effortlessly branded!

Take a peek at Smart.bio below!

Using this information, you’re able to figure out if your Instagram bio is clear enough to lead followers to your link in bio tool or if you should adjust your CTAs!

7. Regularly update your bio to keep it fresh

Whether it’s a change in your professional life, a new milestone, or a shift in your personal brand, your bio should reflect the most current aspects of who you are and what you do.

  • For businesses, updating your bio to highlight ongoing promotions, recent blog posts, or upcoming events keeps your audience informed and engaged.
  • For individual users, showcasing recent achievements, current interests, or new ventures adds a dynamic and authentic touch to your profile.

Consider setting a reminder to review and refresh your bio every few months. This not only ensures that your bio remains relevant but also allows you to experiment with different keywords, hashtags, and calls to action to see what resonates most with your audience.

Keeping your bio fresh and up-to-date is a simple yet effective way to communicate your evolving story to your Instagram community.

8. Analyze competitors’ Instagram bios

Look at accounts that successfully engage their target audience and note common elements. Are they using specific keywords, emojis, or calls to action?

How do they structure their information? Is it direct and to the point, or more narrative and personal? Pay attention to how they integrate their brand voice and personality into their bio.

This analysis can inspire you to refine your own bio. However, it’s important to maintain your authenticity. Rather than copying, use these insights to enhance your bio in a way that remains true to your brand or personal identity.

9. Use your bio to showcase your identity

Your Instagram bio is prime real estate for showcasing your personal brand or business identity. In just a few words, you need to convey who you are, what you offer, and what makes you unique.

For personal brands, this might mean highlighting your skills, passions, or life philosophy. For businesses, it’s about summarizing your products or services and your unique selling proposition.

Be clear, concise, and compelling; remember, you only have 150 characters to make an impact. Use language that resonates with your target audience and reflects your brand voice.

Consistency is key. Ensure your bio aligns with the tone and style of your posts. Including relevant keywords and hashtags can also improve discoverability.

What Makes a Good Instagram Bio?

An Instagram bio is the first thing potential followers will see when they land on your page. It's an important part of setting the tone for your profile and making sure that it reflects you, your brand, and what you have to offer. There are several key elements to consider to make sure you’re making a great first impression.

1. Show People Who You Are

A good bio for Instagram should be concise but descriptive, providing visitors with an idea of who you are and what they can expect from following your account. Use keywords that accurately describe yourself or your business to help people quickly find you in searches.

2. Use Fancy Fonts

You can make your Instagram bio stand out by using unique fonts. Fotor's font generator provides a wide range of Instagram fancy fonts , from bold fonts to cursive fonts , that you can use to customize your bio.

3. Include Some Emojis

You should also take advantage of the character limit in order to create intrigue and draw people in by adding some personality. Include emojis or other symbols that best represent your style or brand – this can add extra flair without taking up valuable characters!

4. Add a CTA

An effective bio for Instagram will also incorporate visuals, such as a profile photo or logo. This helps visitors identify who you are immediately — plus it looks aesthetically pleasing and professional! A “call-to-action” (CTA) at the end of your bio is another great way to get more engagement from followers; ask them to “click the link in our bio” for more information about something related to what you do.

5. Creative Writing

Write an Instagram biography that stands out from the rest by using creative writing to captivate and draw attention. Make sure to craft an exceptional bio that allows your followers to get to know you better and sets you apart from the crowd.

This blog post offers 80+ best Instagram bio ideas and tips to create an eye-catching profile. We hope these ideas will inspire you and aid you in constructing a captivating bio to gain more followers. Now, unleash your creativity and create a unique bio to express your personality!

An Instagram bio is all about making a strong first impression. 

Most people decide whether to follow (or ignore) an account based on your bio.

If your Instagram bio is enticing, someone might decide to engage with your content or follow your account. If it isn’t, you might lose their interest. 

In this article, we’ll look at some cool Instagram bio ideas that you can literally copy and paste into your profile. You’ll also learn how an Instagram bio works, how to write one, and some cool Instagram bio tricks.

What is an Instagram bio?

An Instagram bio is the small area under your username, where you can share some details about yourself or your brand. Your Instagram bio can include a brief self- or brand description, contact information, emojis, branded hashtag, and more. 

Here’s an example of one of the best bios on Instagram, by Sabrina Phillip . 

Instagram bio example

Sabrina’s Instagram bio is powerful. The first line tells you what she does: “I help women make millions online.” 

The second line highlights her roles: “speaker, podcaster, multiple-7-figure CEO.” 

The third line adds a personal touch: “dog mom to @thescottishdoodles.” 

The fourth line talks about her additional interest: “travel writer @sabrinainscotland.” 

And the last line is her CTA, directing you to her webpage at www.liinks.co/sabrinamphilipp . 

She also includes emojis to make the text more eye-catching. 

If you’re looking for Instagram bio ideas that balance professional accomplishments with personal interests, Sabrina’s profile is a great example.

What makes a good Instagram bio?

You can write your Instagram bio any way you want. However, it’s best to apply tried-and-tested Instagram bio tips:

1. Describe your personal brand

The best Instagram bios tend to have a self-description. Things to consider adding: your job title(s), the company you own or work for, some claims to fame, things you love, and what makes you stand out.

Queen Latifah’s Instagram bio does a great job of describing her personal brand. In the first line of her bio she writes, “Actor/Rapper/Singer/Producer.” When people visit her fan page, they’ll learn that she’s not just an actor and may check out her other gigs to learn more about her. 

Instagram personal brand

Plus, that little blue verification mark appears on her page, so people instantly recognize her account's authenticity when they visit. A key takeaway from her profile is that you can hook people even with a short Instagram bio.

2. Highlight your interests

To make a good first impression, you need to connect with your audience. 

How can you do that? By sharing your interests. 

For example, Paola Antonini’s Instagram bio shares a subtle hint about who she is and what her Instagram account is all about. For her interests, she shares, “Lifestyle | Travel | Gratitude.”

When you see the word “gratitude” thrown in there, you get a little intrigued. And after scrolling through some pictures, you immediately see that she has a prosthetic leg. 

Many of her Instagram posts include pictures of her living life, traveling, and having fun, which makes her interesting. Her 2.6 million followers likely agree. 

The best bio will always be the one that’s easy to read and highlights your key passions.

3. Share your contact information 

If you’re the owner of a fan page or business, or you’re a public figure, your Instagram bio should include your contact information. 

Most people write something like, “For business enquiries, email [email protected] .” You can also direct people to your DM for sending messages. 

The app company A Color Story includes its email address in its Instagram bio for easy communication. This simplifies the way followers and potential collaborators can get in touch with the business.

4. Add a call to action

Whether you’re a business owner or an influencer , having a call to action in your Instagram bio is a must. 

Remember: You’ve got one link that you can include for users to click on. So throw in a request to “Sign up for my course,” “Check out my latest blog post,” or “Shop the hottest fashion products now.” 

Tony Robbins’ Instagram bio example includes the CTA “⬇️ Podcast.” The arrow emoji points down to the link to get some extra attention.

5 Instagram bio tricks to try

Want to learn a few tricks to make your Instagram bio pop? Here are four of the most popular ones:

1. Change the font in your Instagram bio

Using a tool like LingoJam , you can easily copy and paste different Instagram bio fonts for your profile. All you need to do is type in the words you’d like in a different font, like your name. 

Then, scroll through fonts until you see one you like. Copy and paste it right into your Instagram bio.

2. Add symbols to make it more noticeable

Using a website like CoolSymbol , you can copy and paste symbols and fancy text. 

You’ll find lots of cool symbols like stars, copyright, arrows, currency, brackets, hearts, zodiac signs, and more. As soon as you click one of the symbols, it immediately gets copied. Then you can head on over to Instagram to post it in your bio.

3. Create a link in bio to improve visibility

You probably already know how to add your website link in your Instagram bio. But what about when you want to add multiple links? 

A cool little website that will help you do this is Linkpop . All you need to do is log into your Shopify account, add the links you want to the landing page, and share your unique link on your Instagram profile.

5. Add your location if it makes sense

You can add a location to your Instagram bio if you are listed as a public figure or business. If you are, follow these easy steps:

  • Go to your profile and select the Edit Profile button.
  • Under Public Business Information, select Contact Options. 
  • Choose Business Address and fill in the fields.
  • Save the changes.
  • Test the address in your bio to ensure it links to the right place.

Drive more engagement with a killer Instagram bio

The best Instagram bios can help elevate your Instagram account, along with your personal and professional goals. 

Whether your goal is to grow your followers or make more sales , you can add calls to action to your bio to get people to do specific things when they visit your profile. 

But don’t neglect the opportunity to share more about yourself and your brand. One of the most important things is to be memorable and engaging—so don’t be afraid to get a little fun and quirky.

  • A description. This can be anything from your mission statement to your latest product feature. It tells users what your brand is about in just a few words.
  • Calls-to-action. Want to direct social media users to your products and/or services? Use the "Shop Now" call to action (CTA). You could also have a "Contact Us" CTA to direct users to your phone or email.

Beyond the essentials, an Instagram bio can also have hashtags relevant to your brand or industry. Now that you know what to include, let’s see some examples from real brands.

Are you using social media right if you don't include emojis?

There are two routes you can take with emojis in your bio.

You can use several emojis to highlight multiple things, or you can limit your use to one emoji that relates to your brand.

41. Brook Green Hotel

Creative Instagram bio ideas, brook green hotel

Don’t be afraid of playing with different emojis, even if their colors don’t match your brand guidelines. Brook Green Hotel, for example, demonstrates its service with relevant but off-brand color emojis.

Pro tip: Emoji-heavy bios are best for family hotels or modern places with a young target audience. Likewise, emoji-heavy bios look strange for premium-class hotels.

42. Jungalow

What we love: The saying “to find my own fragrance” is amplified by the rose emoji. You already have a reason to start searching for your ideal body cream or perfume.

59. Telluride Yoga Festival

instagram-bio-telluride

Here’s another example of an offer-focused bio for short events. Our favorite part of the bio is how it brings the key information down to just a date, a place, and an encouraging statement.

60. Simpli Coffee

Good Instagram bio ideas with offers and call to action, arya concept spa

Want your Instagram visitors to convert into customers? Put the “Reservations” CTA and the “Contact” link or button in your bio.

Your Instagram bio doesn’t need to be long. In fact, in some cases, it’s best to keep it short and sweet. Here are examples of brands that did this well.

Simple Instagram bio ideas, github

In the world of developers, it’s safe to say that everyone knows GitHub. With such overwhelming brand awareness within your target audience, it’s okay to use such short bios.

Yet, we don’t recommend replicating this approach for lesser-known brands, since nobody will understand who you are and what you do.

66. Shopify

Simple Instagram bio ideas, shopify

Similarly, Shopify is also not that descriptive of what it offers, but do you know someone interested in e-commerce who isn’t familiar with Shopify? Probably not. You can keep vague bios for big names.

67. Desi Dimova

instagram-bio-desi-dimova

Desi Dimowa, a driftwood artist, contrives to deliver a cohesive brand image using just five words. The bio includes what the shop is about, how to contact the seller, and where to buy ready artwork.

68. Backroads

Simple Instagram bio ideas, backroads

Backroads travel agency simply describes its offerings with no fancy hashtags or emojis. Yet, it still gathers a great deal of following and engagement. Like with GitHub, this approach may work for large brands but is likely to fall flat for small companies.

70. Malenki Shoes

Pro Tip: Experiment with the copy but ensure to add a link to your site so that prospects can discover your products/services.

72. Mangishi Doll

Simple Instagram bio ideas, mangishi doll

Here’s another great example of a short but effective Instagram bio. When you read this bio, you know what the brand is about and what they offer.

Remember: At the end of the day, if your bio doesn’t do either of these, that’s when you’re in trouble and should reassess. Otherwise, longer isn’t always better.

Simple Instagram bio ideas, ttm

You can hardly find a more informative and succinct description of a recruitment company on Instagram. Its bio paints a complete picture of TTM’s service and its target market. The link tree, in turn, takes visitors to explore TTM’s solutions.

74. Philz Coffee

Simple Instagram bio ideas, philz

Philz Coffee keeps its bio short and sweet. Instead, they promote their app heavily. This puts value, a way to reduce the wait in line, at the forefront for page visitors.

Restaurants and coffee shops each offer unique opportunities for bios. For restaurants, a brief mention of the food or cuisine they specialize in will play a huge role. Highlighting innovative recipes can be effective as well.

For coffee shops, focusing on the various specialty drinks that are available can be engaging. Furthermore, emphasizing any interesting vendors or locally sourced products can also add an additional level of interest for potential visitors.

As such, bios should always cater to the theme and specific atmosphere of each business to make it memorable and easily distinguishable from competitors. They can be short, emoji-loaded, descriptive, and more. Let’s study some examples.

75. Shore Pour

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, shore pour

Shore Pour coffee shop front-loads the bio with a coffee selection paired with the best sweets in stock. You can also see the opening hours and the site to learn the brand history.

76. Honey Bun

https://www.instagram.com/honeybundublin/

Honey Bun offers visitors a cup of coffee and a bakery experience. It designates the location and operating hours.

What we like: The use of emojis helps visitors scan the text and quickly discern the essential information.

77. Kinjo Sushi

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, kinjo sushi

Launching special deals to boost takeaway orders? Advance the offer by notifying your followers in the bio.

What we like: This sushi bar lists the main menu categories, so you know what to expect.

78. Zwei und Zwanzig

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, zwei and zwanzig

Not everyone is a fan of this type of bio design, nevertheless, the overload of veggie emojis does the job and represents a vegan restaurant at a glance.

We like this bio for its uniqueness and clear message.

79. Choice Luxe Bistro

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, choice luxe bistro

This restaurant page provides a concise explanation of experiences you might find at Choice Luxe Bistro. It also gives you the operating hours and states the possibility of booking a table.

The verdict: A simple bio can help inform visitors about the essentials.

80. 5senses

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops

5senses is a manifestation of a polished restaurant bio that offers food selection, emphasizes an important meal option like gluten-free, and prompts followers to reserve a table. We like how well-structured the bio is and how emojis amplify the brand story.

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, ror

R.O.R’s bio only includes the locations of the chain’s three coffee shops and a link to the site. This might work for R.O.R. but doesn’t necessarily mean you will benefit from copy-pasting the approach. Keep testing your bio to find your voice.

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, smyth

Smyth is a Michelin-starred restaurant that, to our surprise, says nothing about the prestige award. In its bio, Smyth prefers to invite you on a journey of rich food experiences.

Pro tip : Place the menu under the link tree.

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, oriole

In contrast, Oriole brags about two Michelin stars and its chef.

We like both approaches since they communicate different values and marketing positionings. Smyth focuses on the quality and the uniqueness of its meals, while Oriole takes advantage of the chef’s personal brand. Both strategies find their clients.

84. Haven House

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, have house

The Haven House, a coffee bar, has a brief yet effective bio listing its beverages and menu items.

However, this bio would benefit from mentioning its location. Either include a whole address or fill in the space with something else useful.

85. Cool Beanz

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, cool beanz

Cool Beanz leads with its business hours and a link to a map and menu inside. However, this brand would benefit from mentioning why this shop is unique.

86. Urban Backyard

Instagram bio ideas for restaurants and coffee shops, urban backyard

Lastly, Urban Backyard falls for a minimalistic bio describing only two hot beverage categories and announcing a new location. Simple, elegant, and yet informative.

While putting together 90 Instagram accounts with different bio ideas, we encountered some examples that we prefer to set apart. This section includes funny and mission-focused bios with a tagline.

87. Funny: Skittles

Social media is a place to engage and have fun with your audience. So, if you’re struggling to come up with a bio, stop overthinking and consider going the funny route.

Take Skittles .

88. Funny: Cards Against Humanity

Cards Against Humanity is another great example.

Creative Instagram bio ideas, cards against humanity

Their Instagram bio is hilarious and straightforward. It tells users what their product is and pokes fun at their target audience.

89. Mission-Focused: Sabai Design

Want a sure-fire strategy for your Instagram bio? Share your brand’s mission and/or values.

Sabai Design , a sustainable furniture brand, did just that.

Creative Instagram bio ideas, sabai design

When a user lands on this brand’s profile, they’ll know exactly what the company sells and what it stands for. In today’s world, consumers want brands that champion social responsibility and are transparent about their practices.

Another thing Sabai Design does is include branded hashtags in their bio and invite users to use them when sharing their content.

90. Tagline or Slogan: Fe Noel

Adding your tagline or slogan can be incredibly effective in attracting your target audience.

Take Fe Noel .

Creative Instagram bio ideas, fe noel

Their tagline reads, “Women’s collection designed...for the leading woman.”

Any user who identifies with that will be interested in learning more about the brand. And that’s exactly the effect you want an Instagram bio to have.

91. Tagline or Slogan: Black Like I Never Left

Another example of this comes from the home goods brand, Black Like I Never Left .

Creative Instagram bio ideas, black like I never left

In their bio, they explain what their brand is about and include relevant hashtags.

What the Best Instagram Bio Ideas Have in Common

To start with the very basics, an Instagram bio is a brief description of your account that appears at the top of your profile page, right next to your profile picture.

how to write creative bio on instagram

It plays a crucial role in attracting and convincing users to follow you. In the marketing world, your Instagram bio is a snapshot of your brand and a way to showcase your identity and purpose.

That’s why it’s even more important to craft a compelling Instagram bio that is concise, easy to read, and informative. That being said, you can also inject some fun and creativity into it. 

Emojis and jokes are fair game, even for professionals on the platform and they can be cleverly used to illustrate the lighter side of AI and its benefits in everyday contexts.. So don’t hold back on that and use them to convey what you do and persuade users to follow you.

But enough of the to-dos; let’s check if your existing bio is good enough. 

Before revamping your existing bio, ask yourself these questions and see if you can answer them:

  • What is your brand promise?
  • What is the personality of your brand— Funny? Serious? Informative? Playful? Witty?  Sarcastic? 
  • What are your unique skills or offerings?
  • Are you a local, national, or global business?
  • What sets your product or service apart from others?
  • What action do you want users to take after visiting your profile?

Moreover, the most crucial part is to include a clear and compelling call to action in your bio. This call to action can vary depending on your goals. For example, to build your Instagram following, you can ask visitors to press the follow button or share their photos using a branded hashtag. 

If you have other conversion objectives, such as directing users to buy products, go to your landing page , like your Facebook page, following you on TikTok, or signing up for your digital newsletter, you can include appropriate instructions and links in your bio.

Now that you are well-equipped with the basics let’s move to the showstopper section of this blog!

3. Highlight keywords with hashtags: Choose a few keywords related to your brand or niche and turn them into hashtags within your bio. This helps users easily identify your key focus areas and enhances discoverability.

4. Tag other accounts: If you’re collaborating with other brands or influencers, you can mention and tag their Instagram handles in your bio. This not only shows your association but also helps drive traffic to their profiles.

5. Utilize the @mention feature: Use the @mention feature to highlight user-generated content or testimonials in your bio. This adds social proof and credibility to your brand.

Bonus: Use font generators such as “LingoJam” or “Cool Fancy Text Generator”, that allow you to convert your regular text into different font styles.

Crafting an impactful Instagram bio is crucial for maintaining the interest of your audience and establishing your brand’s presence. Your bio is often the first impression people get of your business on Instagram, so it’s important to make it attention-grabbing and informative.

Instagram Bio Ideas: How to Craft the Perfect Bio for Instagram

Looking for Instagram bio ideas? We've got them for you. In this article, we'll share tips for how to write a killer Instagram bio as well as share examples of IG bios to spark your creativity.

Instagram Bio Ideas: How to Craft the Perfect Bio for Instagram

Your Instagram bio is the first thing someone sees when they land on your profile. Crafting witty, funny, or informative Instagram bios can help people understand who you are before scrolling through your Instagram profile to see your content.

As a brand or content creator, you can give people a quick snapshot of what you stand for, the brands you own, what makes you unique, your business hours, or what your business is in one sentence.

A compelling Instagram bio can hook someone in to follow you even before looking at a single post, so creating one for your Instagram account is a must.

In this article, we'll walk you through a start-to-finish guide on how to craft the perfect Instagram bio, including:

  • How to Write an Instagram Bio that Stands Out
  • How to Cultivate a Specific Aesthetic with Your Instagram Bio
  • How to Make the Most of Your Link-In-Bio
  • Instagram Bio Ideas You Can Use for Inspiration

Let’s get started.

How to Write a Compelling Instagram Bio

Writing an Instagram bio can seem intimidating. You're making a first impression on people coming to your page, so you want to get it right. Fortunately, there are several strategies and tools you can use to speed up the process. We've covered a few here.

What Makes a Strong Instagram Bio?

how to write creative bio on instagram

A strong Instagram bio is typically six lines long and includes these key elements:

  • Name. The first line is where you can include your brand name, full name (for content creators), or main keywords (if you want to be searchable).
  • What you do. The second line is where you share a simple statement about what you do. Avoid jargon or vague statements about what your product is to help people quickly understand what your Instagram account is about.
  • Other projects. The third line might include your associations, such as a company you own (if you're a creator) or other brand accounts your business owns.
  • Value prop. The fourth line should include a key benefit or main value proposition of your business or personal brand – why would people want to buy from you or work with you? Answer that question in a single statement that makes clear why your brand is different from your competitors.
  • Call-to-Action. The next line should be your main CTA. What’s the action that you want people who visit your Instagram profile to take? You can use an emoji to point to the link below to help draw the eye.
  • Link. The last line in the bio will be the link you want people to visit. This might be a link to your website, a link landing page with multiple high-value links, or a specific URL you want people to visit at the moment (your latest YouTube video or a seasonal promotion you’re running, for example).

How to Write a Searchable Instagram Bio

Including keywords in your Instagram bio is part of Instagram SEO or search engine optimization. What does that mean? By using relevant keywords in your Instagram bio, it'll be easier for your account to pop up in Instagram’s search results.

For example, if you own a digital marketing agency, you'll want to include the words "digital marketing agency," or "marketing agency" in your bio. You might even replace your brand name with the keywords you select, while keeping your brand name for your handle only.

how to write creative bio on instagram

Many digital marketing agencies use the hack where they replace their name with the keyword they want to rank for, so when people search those terms on Instagram, they show up closer to the top. People will still be able to find your business by your brand name, especially if your handle remains unchanged. It's a double source of traffic to your profile.

If you’re a brick and mortar business, location keywords are also important to include in your bio. For example, this bridal apparel store, Miosa Bride , has two locations. Their second location includes the city (Folsom) in the name part of their bio. This both helps distinguish this location from their primary store in Sacramento and catches search traffic from brides searching for wedding dress stores in the Folsom area specifically.

Use Instagram Bio Templates

There are multiple formats you can follow on how to structure your Instagram bio. The bigger the brand is (and the more brand recognition it has) the shorter your Instagram bio can be. For example, organizations like Airbnb don't need to over-explain who they are and what they stand for. Most people have heard of them.

how to write creative bio on instagram

If you're a content creator, you might include tags to brands you're associated with, your other social media accounts, or promote an upcoming event or launch. Many Instagram influencers share their TikTok account size in their bio to showcase that they're on other platforms and they've got big audiences there, too.

Best Tools for Writing an Instagram Bio

There are various tools you can use for writing an Instagram bio. If you need help crafting copy for an Instagram bio, you can use AI writing tools like Wordtune or Chat GPT4 to help give you a draft as a starting point.

You might ask an AI tool to "Write me four short lines for my Instagram bio for my course creation business geared towards entrepreneurs that describes my business in one line, has a key benefit in lines two and three, and has a call-to-action to sign-up for my webinar in line four." The more information you feed an AI tool, the better your results will be at crafting an Instagram bio that makes sense for your business.

How to Cultivate a Consistent Aesthetic in Your Instagram Bio

Your Instagram account is an extension of your visual branding, whether that’s personal branding or company branding. If you already have or want to craft a specific, immediately recognizable visual brand, your Instagram bio and profile need to contribute to that branded feel.

Here are a couple of areas you can focus on to create a seamless visual aesthetic on Instagram.

Use Emojis for an Aesthetic Instagram Bio

Emojis are a great way to showcase personality, add a pop of color, and add emphasis in your bio. You can use emojis to replace words or as a bullet point to create line breaks in your Instagram bio. Emojis are often used by content creators or playful brands.

Which emojis you use, or if you even use emojis, is largely dependent on the kind of brand or account you run. For example, if you run a fashion or beauty brand, a few cheeky emojis can inject a lot of personality to your bio. However, if you're running the account for a cancer research institute, they might come across as flippant or insincere because of the sensitive subject material.

how to write creative bio on instagram

Ultimately, emojis need to make sense with your brand personality and voice.

Add Aesthetic, Custom Covers to IG Story Highlights

While Story Highlights aren't exactly in the bio, they're one of the first things people see when looking at your bio. You can use templates to create unique Story Highlight covers that stand out. For example, YouTube's Instagram bio includes custom graphics for their Story Highlights that use a vibrant color palette with a simple graphic to make the Story Highlights pop when browsing their Instagram profile.

how to write creative bio on instagram

Alternatively, you can use a cohesive color palette or attention-grabbing photos, add a simple pattern design, or use icons to make your Story Highlights stand out. Alani Nutrition , an energy drink brand, uses bright, solid colors as their highlight covers. This keeps the super-saturated, vaporwave visual branding they have on all of their packaging and in their posts but doesn’t distract from the actual content below.

How to Make the Most of Your Instagram Link-in-Bio

Many brands see Instagram as mainly an awareness channel. And now that Meta has canceled the Reels Play bonus program, it’s true that there’s no direct way to make money on Instagram if you’re not an e-commerce brand. However, Instagram can still be a useful tool for growth.

One of the best ways to make Instagram work for you is knowing when and how to drive traffic away from Instagram to where it will have the most business impact. There are two main places you can add links: with the link sticker in Instagram Stories and your Instagram bio. Let’s talk about how to make the most of that link in bio .

Use a Call-to-Action in Your Instagram Bio

As a brand, your Instagram bio needs a clear CTA that directs people back to your product and website. And even if you're a content creator, there are probably still actions you want people to take when they visit your Instagram bio – whether that’s going to another channel where you make longer form content, checking out a collab you participated in, or using an affiliate link to buy a product you recommend.

In the last line of your bio, make sure to explicitly state what action you want people to take. You can also add some visual cues. An emoji, such as a finger pointing down or the downward arrow, will help draw the eye to the link below your bio.

Don’t be shy! Be direct in asking for what you want and telling people what they will get if they click that link.

Use a Link Landing Page as Your Link in Bio

Instagram bios only have one spot for a link, which can seem a little limiting, but it doesn’t have to be!

You can use tools like Linktree to create a link landing page. If you have multiple links you want to direct your Instagram followers to, a link landing page creates a single link for people to click on to find multiple resources.

For instance, if you’re a content creator, you may want to link to your merch store, an active brand collaboration, and your latest YouTube video. You can add all of those under your link landing page. Alternatively, if you own a small business, you might link out to multiple blog posts, your product page, other social media accounts, contest details, or even an FAQ page.

how to write creative bio on instagram

These link landing pages often have free plans with a limited number of links, branding options, etc., so you can trial the product. For more customization, like adding your own brand colors and fonts, you can always upgrade to keep that aesthetic, branded experience.

CLI Studios' Instagram bio follows a standard format that brands can emulate to share as much context to potential new followers as possible. They include a short line that describes exactly what they are: "The only dance app with every major style."

Then, they hook you in with a value proposition by highlighting what makes them great: their app has "1000+ online dance classes." Then, they mention you should tag them to be featured. This is a great way to get people to share their user-generated content with you and drive organic engagement.

Finally, they answer the question "what's in it for me" by offering you a free 7-day trial. They also use their Instagram bio to call out their other relevant accounts. In their bio link, they use LinkTree to include several links about their programs, audition details, blog, TikTok account , and more. What makes this a good Instagram bio is that you understand immediately what the brand is about and are even encouraged to engage with them on Instagram by tagging them.

Clever Instagram Bios

The iconic inventor of Spanx, Sara Blakely , is a great example of what it takes to make a clever Instagram bio. Her bio highlights her relatable personality (who doesn’t love fries?), her personal mission statement (“it’s my calling to support women”), and her sense of humor.

Take her Instagram profile photo , in which she’s wearing a bra over her shirt, for example. Spanx sells undergarments, so it’s on brand while also showing that Sara Blakely is a funny gal who doesn’t take herself too seriously.

She tags her Spanx account in her bio, so you can check out her business. Tagging your business on your personal Instagram bio is something most entrepreneurs and creators do to help boost their business' visibility on Instagram.

Best Instagram Bios for Content Creators

Mr. Beast has one of the best Instagram bios. As a business owner or content creator, you need to have a call-to-action in your Instagram bio that drives people back to your product or that asks people to collaborate with you on a project.

Mr. Beast doesn't mess around with his bio. In one sentence, he shares his vision of what he stands for "I want to make the world a better place before I die." But in the second line he makes the ask of how you can support him, by going to Walmart to buy the chocolate he sells. His Instagram bio link goes directly to his chocolate website, so you can learn more about the chocolate (or buy).

Cute Instagram Bios

The easiest way to create cute Instagram bios as a brand or creator is to use emojis. It'll help set a visual tone for who you are and what you stand for. Blume uses emojis at the start of each bio line to visually break up the bio into a bulleted list as well as add some color, personality, and tone.

Their bio highlights what they are, their unique value propositions (plant-based, organic, plastic neutral plus, all-female team, and Canadian). They also include a link in bio where you can shop their collection, subscribe to their email newsletter, find recipes or store locations, and more.

Creative Instagram Bios

how to write creative bio on instagram

Having a creative Instagram bio isn’t just about using different fonts and emojis. You can also create a creative Instagram bio by highlighting your business's product. In Teva's Instagram bio, they ask people to send them their old sandals so that they can be recycled. Their products are made with recycled materials to help reduce waste.

Asking people to send old sandals isn't something you'll find on most Instagram accounts. But the ask is related to their mission and values, which helps you better understand that the company values sustainability without explicitly saying that. Non-profit organizations can also run a fundraiser on Instagram and promote them to their followers.

Funny Instagram Bio Ideas

how to write creative bio on instagram

If you're looking for funny Instagram bios, look no further than Snickers . Their Instagram bio includes a single sentence that reads, "If you think this is Twitter, maybe you just need a SNICKERS." It's a clever way to promote their chocolate bar while poking fun at a different social media app. They include a bit.ly link in their bio that leads directly to a sweepstakes contest. It's likely that they regularly update their bio link with their latest promotional events.

Funny Instagram Bios for Smaller Accounts

how to write creative bio on instagram

The Instagram account for the tumblr poet also uses humor in their Instagram bio. Their whole bio is dedicated to the emo online poet archetype, including the profile picture, which is just the pensieve face emoji edited to be wearing a black beanie.

The bit continues with a funny quote that reads, "i followed my heart, but it did not follow back,” likely a reference to the old trend of “follow for follow back” on Instagram and tumblr. But it also pokes fun at the expression "follow your heart."

It’s not just jokes, though. They also use the space to promote their poetry book, Flowers Are Just Tiny Trees, with a clear call-to-action and a finger emoji pointing towards their link in bio where you can purchase the book.

Cool Instagram Bios

how to write creative bio on instagram

Beardbrand's Instagram bio highlights what their brand is, has a cool call-to-action to text them for a free personalized style consultation, and encourages brand engagement by asking you to tag them in your photos. Most brands don't offer consultations when it comes to their product offering which helps make their profile stand out.

The word "beard" shows up in their bio multiple times, which makes it easy to quickly understand what this Instagram profile is all about while also implementing good social media SEO tactics. Their Instagram bio links to various blog posts, social media accounts, a product quiz, and their homepage among others.

Other Instagram Bio Examples

how to write creative bio on instagram

Kylie Cosmetics uses their Instagram bio as a promotional tool for their product launches. In their bio, you'll find the date to an upcoming volume mascara and liquid eyeshadow launch coming April 6.

Promoting your product launches on Instagram helps build hype for upcoming launches so people can mark their calendars and get ready to purchase your latest product (especially when your brand has millions of loyal customers). Their bio link leads directly to their online store where you can purchase beauty products.

The best Instagram bio ideas come from browsing various Instagram accounts in your niche and looking at how people position themselves. We've shared Instagram bio examples for you to get a general idea of how people format their bios, promote themselves or their brands, and convince you to buy from them or work with them.

10 Instagram Bio Tricks You Should Know

Your Instagram bio is like your business card on the ‘gram. With just 150 characters, you need to make an impact and get your brand message across. Follow these 10 tricks to create a standout bio that converts profile views into followers.

Show Your Personality

Don’t simply list your name, company, and a link. Show off your brand’s personality with fun emojis, quirky phrases, and humor. Give people a taste of your vibe.

Highlight Your Niche

Help potential followers immediately understand what you’re all about. For example: “Helping foodies find the hottest new restaurants in NYC” or “Making natural skincare products for glowing skin.”

Ask a Question

Engage your audience by prompting them to respond in comments or DMs. For instance: “What does your perfect day look like?”

Use Branded Hashtags

Include 1-2 branded hashtags to make it easy for people to find and share your content. Keep it short like #FoodieFinds or #NaturallyGlowingSkin.

Add a Call-to-Action

Tell people what to do next - follow you, shop the link in your bio, or sign up for a newsletter. CTAs give clear direction.

Link Your Website

Drive traffic to your online destination for sales and email signups. Use a link shortener like bit.ly .

List Your Location

If you have a physical location, let people know where to visit you. This works for local businesses.

Mention Your Awards

Build credibility by touting press features, certifications (e.g. #1 Best Pizza in NYC), or accolades.

Share a Discount Code

Run promotions to gain followers by offering a coupon code, exclusive giveaway, or special offer just for your Instagram audience.

Rotate Your Bio

Change up your bio regularly to promote new products, sales, events, and more. Keep it fresh!

With these tips, you can create an Instagram bio that captures attention and gives visitors an immediate sense of your brand. Show off your unique personality and tell people why they should hit that follow button!

More FAQs about Instagram Bio

Curious about some of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to crafting the perfect Instagram bio? Let's go over some of the top concerns people have.

Where is the Bio on Instagram?

The bio is located on your Instagram profile page. It is the text box below your profile picture and username where you can write a short description about your page.

How to Change Bio on Instagram?

To change your Instagram bio:

  • Go to your Instagram profile by tapping the profile icon in the bottom right corner.
  • Tap the "Edit Profile" button in the top right corner.
  • Tap the "Bio" button next to your pronouns.
  • Type your new bio, up to 150 characters.
  • Tap "Done" in the top right corner to save your changes.

Your new bio will now show on your Instagram profile page.

How to Add a Link to Instagram bio?

To add a link to your Instagram bio:

  • Tap the "Links" button next to your bio.
  • Add your website URL to your bio, making sure to include "http://" at the beginning.
  • Instagram will automatically detect the URL and turn it into a clickable link.

Your link will now show in your bio and users can simply tap the link to be taken to your website.

How Long Should My Bio Be?

You have 150 characters to work within your Instagram bio - so keep it short and sweet! Aim for 1-2 sentences or 50-150 characters max. Anything longer risks getting cut off.

Should I Use Emojis?

Yes! Emojis are a fun way to express your personality and brand. But don't go overboard - the best ones to use are relevant to your niche or brand. A camera emoji works for photographers, a pizza slice for foodies, etc.

How Can I Get More Followers from My Bio?

A strong bio makes you look established and worth following. But don't explicitly ask for follows. Instead, pique interest with your description and niche hashtags. Having a link to your website or online shop can also draw in potential followers.

Instagram Bio Ideas: The Perfect Formula, Hacks, and 18 Ideas on How to Get Started

Instagram Bio Ideas: The Perfect Formula, Hacks, and 18 Ideas on How to Get Started

What is a bio in Instagram? Some of the most valuable space on the internet. This compact description on one of the world’s favorite social media applications is “real estate” you don’t want to waste. So if you’re looking for what to put in an Instagram bio or just want cool Instagram bio ideas, you’ve come to the right place. 

Good bios for Instagram quickly and creatively give your target audience a comprehensive first impression. Whether personal or professional in nature, your account deserves to be summarized with a solid description so that followers can understand the work you do or the interests you’re most passionate about. A good Instagram bio level sets viewers on what they can expect to see from your account. 

Because of the limited character count, making the best Instagram bio might feel a little daunting. But, we’re here to walk you through how to make a good Instagram bio. To make yours extra special, consider using a different font to standout. Right, let’s get to work on creating the perfect bio.

Table of Contents

What is an Instagram Bio? 

Your Instagram bio is like a business card for your profile. When you know what to put in an Instagram bio, you start using this space as a way to show off your key skills, aspects of your unique personality, and in the case of professional accounts, even your contact information. 

The Instagram bio character limit is 150 characters, so you’ll need to be brief. You can always check your character count using the Picsart word and character counter tool .

Below, we’ll get into some Instagram bio ideas and tips on how to stick to just the essentials. Pro tip: it helps to start off by narrowing your ideas down to the words that express your personality or brand best.

Why Does Your Instagram Bio Matter?

Even people who do not yet follow you on Instagram can see your bio, and depending on how you use it, this space could help propel your account success . At a very minimum, the bio will give people an idea of what you’re all about. 

If you are using social media to grow a personal or professional brand , then this short bio at the top of your business profile can help viewers get a quick idea of your offering. This can be especially important if you want strangers to follow you organically because they like your content or mission. 

If your Instagram profile is more private in nature, this space is the first of many on your account where you can highlight your personal style, accomplishments, values, and interests. 

The Perfect Formula: How to Write an Instagram Bio

Who you are.

Before you start excitedly listing interests and accomplishments in your bio, give your viewers a quick crash course on who you are. For many of us, this will include some kind of job description or personal information. For example, you can tell the world if you’re an architect, a coffee lover, or a proud mom of three. If you want the virtual universe to know you’ve recently become a pet parent, start there. 

What You Like

Now, it’s time to gush. Describe a few things that are close to your heart. This may be a hobby, like cooking or travel, or a project or organization you’re particularly invested in. If you’re not sure where to start, check out some Instagram bio examples of the accounts you follow. 

How to Find You

When considering what to put in an Instagram bio, adding a website link is a great way to use the limited space to guide your viewers to discover more of your content. 

If you have a business account and want users to be able to contact you outside of your DMs (direct messages), then be sure to include a website URL. Many personal accounts choose to feature the website of an organization they support, a fundraising link, or their portfolio . Remember that your Instagram bio is public, even if your account is private, so don’t share any personal contact information here.   

How to Engage

Many Insta bios, especially those of companies and influencers, include a call to action. If you have a project that you want to share or a product you wish to promote, show viewers how to find it. They’ll often use a link in bio tool and reference it in their post copy, directing people to their Instagram bio to find the link and click through for more information.

Creative Instagram Bio Hacks 

Include your website.

Since your website houses a lot of information, you can save space by directing people here. And, if you sell a product online, then routing people to your e-commerce site is essential to making sales. 

An image says a thousand words, so let emojis speak for you. You don’t have a lot of space, so you can use emojis to save on characters. If you’re an avid reader or share book reviews often in your Instagram Stories , for example, use the book emoji. For further help and resources on emojis, be sure to make full use of the Picsart emoji tool .

Watch the Characters

Get creative about how you use up those precious 150 characters. Don’t repeat information (like your brand name) in the description that can be found elsewhere on your account heading. It’s ok to spend time doing some soul searching on what you’d like to include. Try making a long list of words that describe you or your work and then narrowing it down to just the essentials. Another pro tip is to feature only your most relevant and recent work or accomplishments.

Whether you’re a business or an individual, having an eye-catching Instagram profile is essential if you want to make an impact.

A good Instagram bio is what makes people follow you, want to learn more, and most importantly — click your bio links!

Your bio for Instagram should be unique and engaging enough that it gives potential followers a glimpse into who you are and what they can expect from following your account.

With our complete collection of Instagram bio ideas, plus our helpful tips for crafting the perfect Instagram bio, you’ll have all the tools needed to create a winning profile in no time at all!

Here is a quick summary of what we’ll cover in case you want to jump ahead:

How to Write a Great Instagram Bio

Crafting a clever Instagram bio should be at the top of your list when it comes to marketing yourself and setting your Instagram account up for success.

Before you begin, make sure that you have an Instagram business profile so you get access to extra analytics!

Here are a few steps you can take to write a killer Instagram bio:

1. Introduce Yourself

Good Instagram bio should give potential followers a glimpse into who you are and what they can expect from following your account, so begin with introducing yourself in one or two sentences.

instagram linktree profile example

Here are a few basic bio ideas to get an idea of what you can start with here:

  • I’m a ____ passionate about ____.
  • I’m here to share my love of ____ with the world.
  • A lover of all things ____.
  • Life is an adventure – come join me!
  • Tell me your story and let’s make something great together.
  • Just a ____ trying to make the world a better place.
  • Follow me for an inside look at my journey into ____.
  • Navigating the ups and downs of life one day at a time.
  • Sharing stories, tips, and resources for living your best life.
  • Bringing joy to all through my love of ____.

How to Change the Font in Your Instagram Bio

You may have noticed that some people have different fonts in their Instagram bio and wondered how they did that. After all, you can’t change the font of your text anywhere in your Instagram account profile.

You can actually use a free tool like LingoJam to copy and paste customizable fonts into your Instagram bio.

2. Include Keywords

Choose keywords that accurately reflect what kind of content people will find when they follow you, such as “travel” or “fashion”, etc., so that users searching for those topics will find your profile more easily.

3. Add Emojis and Line Breaks

You can add line breaks and emojis for a more visually appealing Instagram bio which can help draw attention to key points about yourself and/or business!

This makes the aesthetic of your profile really stand out from other accounts.

If you want additional customization, you can also use a free tool like CoolSymbol to add additional symbols to your Instagram bio.

Bonus tip: You can also add a branded hashtag to your bio for Instagram to help others discover you and inspire them to use your hashtag!

4. Include Contact Information

You may or may not want to include any contact information, but it’s a good idea if you’re running a business.

People can send you direct messages, but other businesses and potential partners may want to reach out via email, and opening that channel could lead to additional opportunities.

5. Add a Call-to-Action (Link)

An Instagram bio link is especially important if you run a business or are using Instagram to make money.

You’re only allowed 1 link in your Instagram bio, so use it wisely.

You can include your website URL, an email opt-in, or a landing page for a link-in-bio tool like LinkTree or one of its alternatives.

linktree links from profile example

With a link-in-bio tool, you can link to a landing page that includes several important links for your business, including your podcast, YouTube channel, and more.

6. Review and Revise Regularly

It’s important to review and revise your Instagram bio regularly so that it accurately reflects who you are, what you do, and what your Instagram followers can expect from following your Instagram profile.

Checking out your competitors to get ideas is also a good idea!

Instagram Bio Rules and Limits

Instagram bios are limited to 150 characters, and that includes spaces — meaning you have to be very selective in the words and phrases you include in your bio

Instagram also has some rules about what is and is not allowed in Instagram bios.

For example, Instagram does not allow any profanity or references to drugs, weapons, violence, or other inappropriate topics.

Additionally, there are some specific rules that apply to the links that you can include in your Instagram bio.

The following links are forbidden in your bio area:

  • Snapchat or Telegram links
  • Any link that is included in Instagram bios of multiple accounts (seen as spam)
  • A site that redirects too many times (or URL forwarding)
  • Any other site with spam or associated with spam or poor ranking
  • Any site with explicit content (not suitable for children under 16)

You can also use a service like Bitly to shorten your links, if necessary.

Instagram Bio Ideas for Every Occasion and Niche

Whether you’re a business, an individual, or some combination of the two — displaying your Instagram bio proudly is essential for growing your Instagram presence.

250+ Irresistible Instagram Bio Ideas (& Tips) For 2024

by Jay Gross

on Jun 10, 2024

Are you looking to beef up your Instagram account with some incredible Instagram bio ideas?

Well, you’ve come to the right place.

Instagram has become the go-to social media channel for many, but you’ve gotta have a good plan if you want to stand out amongst the crowd.

So, in this post, we’ll explore the best Instagram captions and bio quotes that’ll impress your potential followers, showcase your brand identity, and level up your social proof.

Let’s begin.

how to write creative bio on instagram

What is an Instagram Bio?

Your Instagram bio is your place to show users who you are. It’s where you make your first impression, parade your brand identity , and tempt people to follow you — in 150 characters or less.

Your bio quotes or Instagram story highlight can include:

  • Descriptions
  • Contact info
  • New products or services

5 Tips for Creating an Irresistible Instagram Bio

So you get it, right? As a content creator , you need your Instagram bio to stand out .

Let’s start with five essential tips to create the perfect Instagram bio…

1. Show Them Who You Are

Will people be inspired to be a follower of your Instagram profile and endlessly scroll your Instagram feed?

Or will they gloss over your dazzling content altogether?

For example, let your brand personality shine by creating a branded hashtag! This way people know what you’re about and why they should be there.

2. Include Keywords

Keywords in your bio help people find you.

Think Google Search .

What’s your Instagram’s main focus?

Find out what your ideal target audience is searching for — then include the keywords in your Instagram bio that match up with their search intent.

3. Include a Call-To-Action (CTA)

A CTA is an essential part of any website, Facebook page , or (you guessed it) Instagram page . CTA’s are action buttons or clickable link directives that inspire a follower to take action.

CTA’s include:

  • Linking your new YouTube video
  • Promoting your new blog post
  • Announcing a new product or service
  • A direct link to your business contact number

But don’t forget to track your results using social media metrics .

4. Make it Stand Out

Make your bio stand out from the crowd. Not in what it says, but in how it looks .

How do you do that?

Add rich text to help your words pop and make them more visually appealing.

Simple ways to do this include:

  • Line breaks

But don’t overdo it — you want to add style without being tacky.

5. Use Creative Writing

Exciting and creative writing captivates your target audience and leaves them wanting more.

Here’s how you can keep your followers hooked:

  • Motivate them with power words
  • Make them laugh
  • Help them feel your creative Instagram bio with sensory words

How to Write The Perfect Instagram Bio (With Examples)

Instagram bio writing 101

Your Instagram bio is a key piece of digital real estate for your brand. It’s typically the first thing Instagram users see when they open your profile and gives visitors a glimpse of what you have to offer. You only get one shot at a good first impression - so use those 150 characters wisely.

As a social media marketer, you already know Instagram marketing is all about connecting with potential customers and building interest in your product or service. A great Instagram bio does all that and more. It tells your audience who you are, what you do, who you serve, and prompts them on next steps. The best Instagram bios incentivize social media users to hit the follow button without even thinking, so make sure your bio is compelling enough to make people want to stick around.

So what truly makes a good Instagram bio? Keep reading to find out!

Components of a Killer Instagram Bio

There are a million different ways to write a great Instagram bio. While each brand’s bio will be unique to them, here are a few common elements that your bio should contain: 

Username and Display Name

Don’t mix these up! Despite their similarities, your username (or Instagram handle) and profile display name serve different purposes for your page.

Whenever you comment, like or follow another Instagram account, your username is the first thing they’ll see. In most cases, your Instagram handle will be your name, your brand’s name, or something close to it. 

Your username is the first thing Instagram will check when users search for your brand on the platform, so make sure it’s simple and contains the most relevant keyword to your brand or product category. Double check that your username doesn’t contain any unnecessary symbols that would confuse your target audience or prevent you from appearing in searches.

Your Instagram display name , on the other hand, is the name people will see at the top of your Instagram bio when they visit your profile. By looking at your display name, your target audience should be able to identify what your page provides and if it’s something they’re interested in. Your display name is a great opportunity to include additional keywords and boost your Instagram SEO . We’ve done that with our account by adding our product category to the name - which is “ social media scheduling tool ” – to increase our reach and draw in more search traffic.

Business Category

Your business category is displayed at the top of your Instagram profile and helps visitors understand what type of business you are. Note that this option is only available to creator and business accounts.

When setting up your Instagram business profile, you’ll be asked to select the category that best represents your brand. Instagram has literally hundreds of categories, so try to find one that matches your business as closely as possible. Bonus if it contains one of your keywords! You can edit your category at any time, as well as choose to hide it from your profile using the Edit Profile menu.

Profile Photo

Your Instagram profile photo is one of the first things people will notice when they visit your profile page. Here are some tips to ensure your picture makes a lasting impression:

  • Use your headshot or brand logo to build brand awareness.
  • Make sure your image is high-resolution and cropped to the correct size (110 x 110 pixels).
  • Incorporate a pop of color to stand out from the crowd - this could be through your photo background, a product, clothing, or text.
  • Make sure it’s on brand. Your profile picture colors and tones should complement the rest of your Instagram feed aesthetic. 

We love this example from social media coach Lucy Vincent. It incorporates color and rich contrast, while coming off as professional and friendly:

Description

Your description is the star of your Instagram profile! It’s your chance to show off your brand’s personality, share crucial details about your business, and inspire people to take action. Think of it as your elevator pitch. Your description should showcase who you are as a brand and touch on the following areas:

  • What your business does. Start with the basics. What product or service do you offer? Ideally, this line or sentence should be straightforward and incorporate keywords where possible. You can also add line breaks, bullet points or emojis to make it look neat and easy to read.

Superfood brand Blume does this perfectly through a combo of their Instagram display name and bullet points highlighting their unique product features:

  • Who you serve. Let’s be real - Instagram users want to follow people they like and trust. To build connections with your target audience, your bio should speak directly to them using language they understand. 

See how IG expert Mya Nicol speaks directly to her target audience – coaches and service providers – in her bio:

how to write creative bio on instagram

  • How you do it. Why should people follow you? What can they hope to gain? Your business bio should give visitors an idea of the kinds of content to expect from you and help them understand your value, like social media strategist Daniele does here:

how to write creative bio on instagram

To sum it up, there are many different ways to write your Instagram bio description, but the best bio will help your business stand out and allow your personality to shine through. 

Contact Information

Funny enough, this is the one section that a lot of businesses fail to fill out properly. Especially if your business has a brick and mortar component, you should be adding your address and phone number at a minimum.

Instagram has built-in action buttons for your email, phone number, and address. You can choose whether these are displayed or not, but we recommend adding all three if possible. If you opt not to display these on your profile, provide another avenue for potential customers to contact you such as a link to the contact form on your website or a link to book a discovery call.

Branded Hashtags

In this new era of user-generated content, branded hashtags are a fun way to engage your audience and encourage Instagram users to share their experiences with your brand’s product or service.  

For example, check out how Lululemon created a social media movement among fitness lovers by encouraging people to join their branded hashtag, #thesweatlife . This has resulted in over 1.5 million posts using the hashtag:

Call to Action

Put simply, a call to action or CTA is a way of getting people to do something. People are much more likely to perform an action when you give them clear directions, so your call to action is crucial if you want visitors to convert to customers.

Your call to action and bio link should work together to guide users to learn more about your business. Here are some of our favorite (and effective!) calls to action:

  • Visit our online store
  • Book a discovery call
  • Download our free guide
  • Find our products 
  • Sign up now

Ideally, your CTA should sit directly above your bio link. To grab viewers’ attention, use emojis like a pointing hand or add emphasis through fun Instagram fonts or capitalized words like Media A La Carte does here:

how to write creative bio on instagram

Your Instagram bio link is a clickable link that can be used to drive traffic to your website, latest blog post, landing page, downloadable offer, or signup form. It’s a clear next step for your Instagram users that converts them into customers.

In 2022, there’s really no reason to limit yourself to a single bio link. Add multiple links to your profile through a trackable Instagram bio link like LinkTree or Sked Link . A tool like Sked Link allows you to link to a customizable menu that connects Instagram users to multiple pages at once. It also has advanced analytics capabilities which help you track how many Instagram users click on your link. The best part? Sked Link is totally free for Sked Social users!

Action Buttons (*NEW*)

Take your call to actions one step further with Instagram’s new action buttons . Thanks to Instagram’s ongoing efforts to support small businesses, you can now add the following action buttons to your business account:

  • Book Now: Book an appointment.
  • Reserve: Make a reservation at a restaurant.
  • Order Food: Get food delivery or takeout from a business. 

To set up an action, you need an existing account with a partner to select them. 

To access these features, head to your business profile, tap Edit Profile , then under Profile Information, click Action Buttons. Tap to add the action button you want, then tap save (iOS) or the checkmark icon (Android) to go live. Note that only one action button can be displayed on your profile at a time.

Keep in mind that the feature is still rolling out and may not be available to all accounts just yet. If you’re lucky enough to have it, play around with the feature and see if it leads to more conversions for your business.

Incorporate key elements such as a clear description, brand personality, and a call-to-action to engage your followers. Utilise tips like using emojis, hashtags, and a Link in Bio tool to make your profile stand out and attract attention.

Identifying Your Purpose and Audience

When crafting your Instagram bio, consider whether you aim to represent yourself personally or promote a business . Tailor your bio to resonate with your target audience, ensuring that the content and tone align with their interests and preferences. Understanding your purpose and audience is vital in creating an engaging and effective bio on the platform.

Personal vs. Business Bios

Crafting an impactful Instagram bio involves different strategies for personal and business accounts, each tailored to attract the right audience for your profile. In personal bios, focus on showcasing your personality and values to engage like-minded followers. For business bios, highlight unique selling points and offerings to appeal to potential customers. Align your bio with your branding strategy to maintain consistency and authenticity.

Key Elements of a Good Instagram Bio

These components are essential in grabbing the attention of your audience and conveying essential information about your brand. Make sure each element is optimised to engage users and drive traffic to your profile.

Username and Display Name

To create an engaging Instagram bio, make sure your username and display name reflect your brand or personal identity effectively, attracting followers and conveying your message clearly and memorably. Your username should be simple yet memorable, while your display name should represent your brand or personality clearly. Utilise symbols, emojis, or special characters strategically for added creativity. Optimise both names to align with your Instagram branding strategy and target audience.

Profile Picture

Make sure that your Instagram profile picture is a clear, high-resolution representation of your brand or personality to make a strong visual impact on your audience.

Consistency with your branding is key for a successful Instagram bio, helping create a cohesive and recognisable presence.

Bio Section

Crafting an impactful Instagram bio requires incorporating key elements such as a display name, page category, pronouns, a brief description, one external link, and contact information to engage and inform your audience effectively. Utilise emojis, hashtags, and line breaks to improve visual appeal. Including targeted keywords can boost search visibility, and a clear call-to-action encourages user interaction. Keep it concise within the 150-character limit to attract and retain visitors.

Call to Action

In your Instagram bio, make sure you include a clear call to action that prompts users to engage with your content or visit your website. Use engaging language with action verbs like 'shop now,' 'learn more,' or 'book now' to drive user interaction. Add clickable buttons or links to direct visitors to specific pages or offers.

Utilise this tool strategically to drive traffic, promote campaigns, and improve engagement. Incorporate key elements like a clear display name, a compelling 150-character description, and contact information to make your Instagram bio more engaging and effective.

Tips for Making Your Instagram Bio Stand Out

To make your Instagram bio stand out, make sure you use keywords specific to your niche, strategically place emojis to add personality, and emphasise your unique selling points. Keeping your bio concise and regularly updating it will keep your audience engaged and interested in what you have to offer. Remember to highlight what sets you apart and make it easy for users to connect with you through a clear call-to-action.

Use Keywords Relevant to Your Niche

Incorporate industry terms, product names , or services relevant to your niche to effectively communicate your expertise. Research and include popular hashtags and trending keywords to improve visibility. Optimise your bio with keywords potential followers might search for, creating a strong connection that drives engagement on your profile.

Incorporate Emojis Strategically

Incorporating emojis strategically in your Instagram bio can greatly improve its visual appeal and effectively convey your brand's personality. Use emojis to break up text, highlight key points, or set the tone of your bio. Choose emojis that align with your brand identity and content to make your bio more memorable and relatable. Remember, emojis can add a touch of creativity and emotion, enhancing the overall engagement with your audience.

Highlight Unique Selling Points

Using an AI-Powered Instagram Bio Generator

If you're looking to streamline your Instagram bio creation process, an AI-powered generator can be a game-changer. It offers personalised suggestions quickly based on your input, saving you time and effort. By following a few simple steps, you can have a compelling and tailored bio ready to go in no time.

What is an Instagram Bio Generator?

An Instagram Bio Generator is a specialised tool designed to help you craft the perfect bio for your Instagram profile. Using AI technology, this generator takes your input—such as your account type, a brief description of yourself or your brand, and the desired tone—and then creates a customised bio that aligns with your personality or brand image. This tool simplifies the process of writing a bio, ensuring that it is engaging, concise, and reflective of your unique style.

How Does an Instagram Bio Generator Work?

The process is both straightforward and sophisticated, leveraging advanced AI algorithms to deliver personalised results. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of how it works:

  • Account Type : You start by specifying the type of account you have. This could be a personal account, a business profile, an influencer page, a blog, etc. This helps the AI understand the context and target audience.
  • About : You provide a brief description of yourself or your brand. This might include your interests, profession, values, or any key points you want to highlight.
  • Tone : You choose the tone you want for your bio. Options might range from professional, friendly, humorous, inspirational, to casual. This ensures the bio matches your desired voice and resonates with your audience.
  • Context Understanding : The AI analyses the provided inputs to understand the context of your profile. For instance, if you have a business profile, the AI knows to include elements that reflect professionalism and brand identity.
  • Natural Language Processing (NLP) : The AI uses NLP to comprehend the nuances in your description and tone. It picks up on keywords and phrases that are essential to accurately representing you or your brand.
  • Crafting the Bio : Using its understanding of your inputs, the AI crafts a bio that is not only grammatically correct but also engaging and authentic. It ensures the bio is succinct, typically adhering to Instagram's character limit.
  • Customisation : The AI might offer multiple versions of the bio, giving you options to choose from. This allows you to pick the one that best fits your style and preferences.

Why Use an Instagram Bio Generator?

Crafting the perfect Instagram bio can be a challenging task. It needs to be concise, engaging, and reflective of your personality or brand—all within a limited character count. An Instagram Bio Generator can simplify this process and offer several key benefits:

  • Saves Time and Effort:  Writing a bio from scratch can be time-consuming, especially if you're not confident in your writing skills. An Instagram Bio Generator quickly creates a well-crafted bio based on your inputs, saving you valuable time and effort that you can spend on other aspects of managing your profile.
  • Professional and Polished Appearance:  An AI-powered generator ensures that your bio is not only grammatically correct but also polished and professional. This can be particularly important for business profiles or influencers who want to maintain a certain level of professionalism and attract potential followers or clients.
  • Customisation and Personalisation:  The generator tailors the bio to fit your unique style and needs. Whether you want a friendly, humorous, professional, or inspirational tone, the generator can create a bio that matches your preferences, ensuring that it accurately reflects your personality or brand identity.
  • Optimal Use of Character Limit:  Instagram bios are restricted to 150 characters. An Instagram Bio Generator efficiently utilises this limited space, ensuring every word counts. The AI focuses on including the most relevant and impactful information without exceeding the character limit.
  • Engagement and Attraction:  A well-crafted bio can significantly enhance your profile's attractiveness and encourage more users to follow you. The generator creates bios that are engaging and appealing, helping you stand out in the crowded Instagram environment.
  • SEO and Keyword Optimisation:  The AI can incorporate relevant keywords that improve your profile’s discoverability. For business profiles, this can be particularly advantageous for reaching a broader audience and improving your profile’s visibility in search results.
  • Consistency Across Multiple Profiles:  If you manage multiple Instagram accounts, an Instagram Bio Generator can help maintain a consistent tone and style across all profiles. This is especially useful for brands with various segments or influencers managing both personal and professional accounts.

Steps to Use the Instagram Bio Generator

Creating a standout Instagram bio using an AI-powered generator is a straightforward process. Follow these simple steps to craft a bio that reflects your personality or brand effectively:

1. Select Personal or Business Account

The first step is to identify the type of account for which you need a bio. This helps the AI tailor the bio to your specific needs.

  • Personal Account : Choose this if the bio is for an individual profile, where you might want to showcase personal interests, hobbies, or personality.
  • Business Account : Select this option if the bio is for a brand, business, or professional profile. This will prompt the AI to include elements that highlight your business’s offerings, values, and contact details.

2. Write About Details

Next, provide a brief description of yourself or your brand. This information helps the AI understand the core elements that should be included in your bio.

  • Personal Details : Mention key interests, hobbies, or unique traits. For example, “Love hiking, photography, and tech gadgets.”
  • Business Details : Include your business’s mission, key products or services, and any unique selling points. For example, “Sustainable fashion brand, ethically sourced materials, eco-friendly.”

3. Select a Tone

Choose the tone that best fits your desired style. This ensures that the bio resonates with your audience and aligns with your overall image.

  • Professional : Suitable for business profiles or professionals who want a formal and polished bio.
  • Friendly : Ideal for those looking to create a warm and approachable vibe.
  • Humorous : Perfect for individuals or brands that want to showcase a fun and playful side.
  • Inspirational : Great for motivational profiles or brands that want to inspire their audience.

4. Click on Generate

Once you’ve entered all the necessary details and selected the tone, click on the “Generate” button. The AI will process your inputs and create a customised bio.

Common Mistakes to Avoid in Your Instagram Bio

Creating an effective Instagram bio is crucial for making a strong first impression. However, there are several common pitfalls that you should be aware of to ensure your bio is both engaging and effective. Here are some key mistakes to avoid:

1. Overloading with Emojis

Emojis can add personality to your bio, but using too many can make it look cluttered and unprofessional.

  • Avoid : Filling your bio with excessive emojis.
  • Solution : Use emojis sparingly to highlight key points or add a touch of personality without overwhelming the text.

2. Being Too Vague

A vague bio can confuse visitors and fail to convey what your profile is about.

  • Avoid : Using generic statements like “Lover of life” or “Dreamer”.
  • Solution : Be specific about who you are or what your brand represents. For instance, “Travel blogger sharing adventures around the world” is much clearer.

3. Lacking Keywords

Without relevant keywords, your profile might not appear in searches related to your niche or industry.

  • Avoid : Ignoring important keywords relevant to your niche.
  • Solution : Include keywords that reflect your interests, profession, or business to improve discoverability. For example, if you’re a fitness coach, include terms like “fitness,” “health,” or “wellness.”

4. Ignoring Contact Information

If you’re a business or influencer, making it hard for people to contact you can be a big missed opportunity.

  • Avoid : Not providing any contact information.
  • Solution : Include a way for people to get in touch, such as an email address, or use Instagram’s contact buttons (email, call, directions).

5. Not Showcasing Your Unique Value

Failing to communicate what makes you or your brand unique can result in a lack of interest.

  • Avoid : Generic bios that don’t differentiate you from others.
  • Solution : Highlight what sets you apart. For instance, “Eco-friendly beauty products | Cruelty-free | Handcrafted with love.”

6. Ignoring a Call-to-Action (CTA)

A CTA encourages visitors to take the next step, whether it’s visiting your website, following you, or checking out a product.

  • Avoid : Not including a CTA.
  • Solution : Add a simple and clear CTA, such as “Check out our latest blog post!”, “Shop our new collection!”, or “Follow for daily tips!”.

7. Writing in Long Paragraphs

Long blocks of text can be hard to read and off-putting.

  • Avoid : Writing lengthy paragraphs without breaks.
  • Solution : Break up text with line breaks and bullet points to make it more readable. For example:
  • “Travel blogger ✈️
  • Sharing adventures around the world 🌍
  • New blog posts every week 📅”

8. Not Updating Regularly

An outdated bio can give the impression that your profile is inactive.

  • Avoid : Leaving your bio unchanged for long periods.
  • Solution : Regularly update your bio to reflect any new changes in your life or business, such as new services, achievements, or contact information.

9. Ignoring Links

Instagram allows you to add one link in your bio, which is prime real estate for driving traffic to your website, blog, or latest project.

  • Avoid : Not utilising the link option.
  • Solution : Always include a relevant link and update it regularly. Use link-shortening tools like Bitly or services like Linktree to manage multiple links.

10. Using Poor Grammar and Spelling

Mistakes in grammar and spelling can make your profile look unprofessional.

  • Avoid : Sloppy grammar and spelling errors.
  • Solution : Proofread your bio carefully or use a grammar-checking tool to ensure it’s error-free.

Final Tips for a Successful Instagram Bio

Creating an effective Instagram bio involves more than just avoiding common mistakes. Here are some final tips to help you craft a bio that stands out and effectively communicates your identity or brand:

1. Be Clear and Concise

Your Instagram bio has a 150-character limit, so clarity and brevity are key. Make sure every word counts.

Tip : Focus on the most important information and express it in a straightforward manner. Avoid unnecessary filler words.

2. Highlight Your Unique Selling Point (USP)

What sets you or your brand apart from others? Make sure this is evident in your bio.

Tip : Identify your unique attributes or services and succinctly include them in your bio. For example, “Handcrafted vegan skincare” or “Award-winning travel photographer.”

3. Use Keywords Wisely

Incorporate relevant keywords that describe your interests, profession, or niche to improve searchability.

Tip : Think about the terms your target audience might use to find profiles like yours and include them naturally in your bio.

4. Incorporate a Call-to-Action (CTA)

Encourage your visitors to take a specific action, such as visiting your website, following you, or checking out your latest post.

Tip : Use action words and clear instructions like “Click the link for more recipes” or “Follow for daily fitness tips.”

5. Utilise Line Breaks and Emojis

Make your bio visually appealing by using line breaks and emojis to break up text and highlight key points.

Tip : Emojis can add personality and context but use them sparingly to maintain a professional appearance. Line breaks make the bio easier to read.

6. Include Contact Information

Make it easy for people to reach out to you by including your email or other contact methods.

Tip : If you’re a business, use Instagram’s contact buttons for email, call, or directions to make it convenient for potential customers.

7. Update Regularly

Keep your bio fresh and relevant by updating it regularly to reflect any new changes or information.

Tip : Set a reminder to review and update your bio periodically, especially if there are new milestones, products, or services to highlight.

8. Leverage the Link in Bio

Instagram allows you to add one clickable link in your bio. Use this to drive traffic to your latest content, product, or website.

Tip : Use a link management tool like Linktree to offer multiple links if you have several things to promote.

9. Show Your Personality

Let your personality shine through to connect with your audience on a personal level.

Tip : Use a tone and language that reflects who you are or what your brand stands for. If you’re fun and quirky, let that show; if you’re serious and professional, your bio should reflect that.

10. Consistency Across Platforms

Ensure your bio is consistent with your branding across all social media platforms.

Tip : Use similar language, tone, and keywords across your social media profiles to create a cohesive brand identity.

Last Updated On : April 8, 2024

Do you want to create a killer Instagram bio?

If so, you're in the right place!

In this blog post, we will discuss how to create an awesome Instagram bio that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a lasting impression on your audience.

I’ll also share some tips and Instagram bio ideas that are sure to inspire you.

So what are you waiting for? Let's get started!

What is an Instagram Bio?

Your Instagram bio is the one place on the platform where you can really show off your personality . This is especially important if you're trying to build a personal brand or attract followers who are interested in what you do.

It also applies to business accounts that want to reflect their brand personality through the bio to attract the right target audiences.

Think of your bio as an opportunity to tell your story and give people a taste of who you are. Be creative, be fun, and be yourself!

Here are some quick tips to help you create a killer Instagram bio:

  • Use emojis to add personality.
  • Use hashtags to reach a wider audience.
  • Use keywords to describe you and your business to help people find you more easily.
  • Keep it short and sweet.

Here’s an example:

instagram bio

Helen Sula is a travel blogger and content creator. Her Instagram bio clearly defines what she has to offer on Instagram (both feed and Stories). It also includes a link to travel, blogging, and Instagram tips that can dangle a carrot in front of new followers and prompt them to explore her website and other links.

add multiple links in your instagram bio

For this, she has used Tailwind’s link in the bio tool, “ Smart.bio. ” You can also opt for similar tools such as Linkin.bio by Later and Linktree .

We'll learn more about adding links to your Instagram bio in the latter sections of this post. So, keep reading!

What Makes Your Instagram Bio Important?

Your Instagram bio is one of the first things people see when they visit your profile. It's important to make a good impression and give people an idea of who you are and what your Instagram account is all about.

Your Instagram bio is also a great place to include a call-to-action (CTA) that encourages people to take a specific action, such as visiting your website or following you on another social media platform.

You can also use your bio to promote special events , such as a webinar or contest, and to drive traffic to your latest blog post.

In short, your bio is an important part of your Instagram marketing strategy, so it's worth taking the time to get it right.

Now that we've covered the basics, let's take a look at some Instagram bio ideas and tips to help you use your Instagram bio space to the fullest.

How to Write the Perfect Instagram Bio

Nailing your Instagram bio can be tough. But, luckily, there are a few simple tips you can follow to help you write the perfect bio for your Instagram profile.

Tell Users What You Offer

The first step is to make sure your bio tells users what you offer . This might seem like a no-brainer, but you'd be surprised how many people don't do this.

If you have a business, be sure to include what you do in your bio. For example, if you have a clothing brand, you might want to include something like, “We make stylish and affordable clothes for women of all sizes.” in your bio for Instagram.

If you have a personal brand, you might want to include what you do or what you're known for in your bio. For example, if you're a social media expert, you might want to include something like, “I help businesses grow their online presence.”

Lucas O’Keefe, an Instagram growth coach, has done a good job with his Instagram bio. It clearly mentions that you can find easy tips and tricks to grow your Instagram account on his Instagram profile.

instagram bio example lucas

And his Instagram feed totally stands up to the promise he made in his bio.

lucas instagram feed

Instagram bios are a perfect space to let people know what you're all about and what they can expect to see on your profile.

So, make sure you use the right words to make it clear enough.

Include a Call-to-Action (CTA)

As we mentioned earlier, your bio is a great place to include a call-to-action (CTA). This might be something like:

  • “Visit our website”
  • “Sign up for our newsletter”
  • “Follow us on [insert other social media platform]”

Including a CTA in your bio is a great way to encourage people to take action and learn more about you and your business.

For example, the world-famous fashion brand, ZARA's, official Instagram account includes a CTA in their bio that encourages people to visit their website and discover their new collection.

add cta in instagram bio

The CTA is followed by a quick link to their website, which makes it easy for people to take action.

Here’s another example:

Mad Over Marketing uses their Instagram bio to get more people to subscribe to their marketing newsletter with a crystal clear CTA.

You can use the same strategy to make your Instagram bio space count for your business.

Use Keywords and Hashtags

When it comes to Instagram, keywords are important. That's because people often search for specific keywords when they're looking for something on the platform.

For example, if someone is looking for a new pair of jeans, they might search for “jeans” or “denim.”

If you have a business, you can use keywords in your bio to help people find you. For example, if you sell handmade jewelry, you might want to include keywords like “handmade,” “jewelry,” or “accessories.”

Including keywords in your bio is a great way to ensure that people who are looking for what you offer can easily find you.

Similarly, you can also use hashtags in your bio to help people find you. For example, if you sell travel-related products, you might want to include hashtags like “#travel” or “#adventure” in your bio.

hashtag searches on instagram

Hashtags are a great way to connect with people who are interested in the same thing(s) as you. They can also help increase your chances of showing up on relevant hashtag search results pages.

Along with generic, niche-specific hashtags, you can also include your own branded hashtags in your Instagram bio. This will encourage your followers and new profile visitors to explore more content about your brand on Instagram.

One example is the popular clothing brand, Forever 21. In their bio, they include the branded hashtag, “#F21xMe” that their followers can use to share their photos wearing the brand's clothes.

branded hashtag in instagram bio

This is a great way to connect with your audience and get people talking about your brand. In fact, users who are interested in seeing more of your content are likely to follow your branded hashtag.

Use Emojis to Add Personality

Adding emojis to your Instagram bio is a great way to add personality and make your profile more visually appealing.

Emojis can also help you communicate what you're all about in a quick and easy way without using a lot of words. And they're just plain fun! So if you're looking for a way to make your bio stand out, emojis are a great option.

For example, if you're a food blogger or content creator, you might want to include an emoji of a fork and knife in your Instagram bio. Or if you're a travel brand, you might want to include an emoji of a globe or the flags of the countries you've visited so far.

Here’s an example of using emojis in your bio from one of the most popular food influencers on Instagram, Fiona.

You can also use emojis to add personality to your CTA as well. For example, if you're encouraging people to sign up for your newsletter, you might want to include an emoji of an envelope in your bio (see above screenshot).

The possibilities are endless!

So have fun with it and experiment to see what works best for you and your brand.

See how the travel-related account, Wanderlust Collective, uses different emojis to make their bio stand out. They also encourage users to share their travel stories with the hashtag, “#wondermore.”

Place Links Strategically

As we mentioned before, placing links in your Instagram bio is a great way to encourage people to take action. But where you place those links is just as important as the links themselves.

That's because people will typically look at the first and last thing in your bio.

If you want people to click on your links, make sure to place them at the beginning or end of your bio. This is especially important if you have multiple links in your bio. You want to make sure people can easily see and click on all of them.

For example, if you have a blog and a YouTube channel, you might want to put the link to your blog at the beginning of your bio and the link to your YouTube channel at the end.

Or if you're running a special promotion or sale, you might want to put the link to that page at the beginning of your bio so people won't miss it.

What if you want to give people access to links to all important resources, sales pages, and your other social accounts without cluttering up your bio?

In that case, you can use tools such as Linktree or Tailwind’s Smart.bio. These tools allow you to create a single page with multiple links that you can then link to in your Instagram bio.

You can also change the links easily whenever you need to. These tools also come with features like counters and analytics so you can see how many people are clicking on your links.

This is a great solution if you want to give people access to more content without taking up valuable space in your bio.

If you visit my Instagram profile , you’ll find a Linktree link at the end of my bio.

link in instagram bio

When you click on it, you’ll find links to all of my podcast episodes, blog, service pages, and other resources.

linktree links for instagram

When choosing the links to add , you should think about what you want people to do when they visit your profile and include a link accordingly.

If you want people to buy your products, link to your online store. If you want people to sign up for your email list, link to your opt-in page. And if you want people to learn more about you and your work, link to your website or blog.

The bottom line is to make it easy for people to take the next step with you . And including links in your bio is a great way to do that.

Keep It Short and Sweet

When it comes to your Instagram bio, less is more. That's because you only have 150 characters to work with. And while that might not seem like a lot, it's actually plenty if you use it wisely.

So don't try to cram too much into your bio. Instead, focus on making it clear, concise, and easy to read. Use short sentences and simple language. And if you can, include a call-to-action.

Remember, your bio is not the place to tell your whole life story. It's simply a way to introduce yourself and give people a taste of what you're all about.

If you want to share more, you can always link to your website or blog in your bio. That way, people can learn more about you if they're interested.

There you have it! These are just a few simple tips to help you write the perfect Instagram bio.

Instagram Bio Ideas You Can Copy and Paste

Now that we've gone over some tips for creating a great bio, let's take a look at some awesome Instagram bio examples you can use.

Just remember to customize them to fit your own personal brand and style.

Good Instagram Bios

Let's start by looking at some good examples of Instagram bios that have something special about them.

For example, beauty content creator, Huda Kattan, keeps her bio short and sweet, while also giving her followers a glimpse into everything she does and believes in.

It clearly states that she is a makeup artist and blogger, and also shares that her brand, Huda Beauty's products are tested on Huda, NOT animals 🐾.

This tells us a lot about her brand and what she is passionate about, without having to say much.

Another great example comes from a travel blogger, Alexandra Baackes. Her bio says “Wandering heart, New York state of mind. On the go since 2011. Come travel with me @wanderwomenretreats!,” which immediately tells us what she is passionate about (traveling) And what she does (runs travel retreats for women).

Instagram Bio Hacks to Try

Want to learn a few tricks to make your Instagram bio stand out? Check out these hacks:

LingoJam is a great option because it has a lot of different fonts to choose from. You can also change the color of the font, which can be helpful if you want your bio to match your profile picture or highlight a certain word.

All you have to do is type in your bio text and then copy and paste the generated font into your bio.

Ready to take your social to the next level with an amazing Instagram bio? We share how to write the best bio for Instagram that will really boost your business.

So you’ve created your Instagram account and are ready to upload some Insta-worthy photos and videos…but then you find yourself stuck on the little box under your profile picture: your Instagram bio. Coming up with Instagram bio ideas can be tricky, especially if you aren’t sure where to start. Good Instagram bios make a strong first impression on visitors and promote your brand in a fun, creative way. Having a cool Instagram bio can even convert visitors scrolling through your profile into followers. Creating an Insta bio may seem daunting, especially since you have only 150 characters to work with. Fear not—in this handy guide, we’ll show you how to craft the best bio for your Instagram in minutes.

First up: how you can use your Instagram bio to strengthen your brand.

Connecting Your Instagram Bio to Your Brand

A great Instagram bio tells visitors who you are and what they can expect from your services or wares. It sums up your brand or business to new visitors, and convinces them they just have to follow your account for more. Building a strong brand identity makes it that much easier for you to create a strong Instagram bio, as a strong brand identity helps you build on your brand’s tone, personality, and purpose to craft the perfect bio.

Here are a few quick ways you can pull from your brand to create a cool Instagram bio.

Weave Keywords from Your Brand into Your Instagram Bio

Pick two to three words that best sum up your brand or business and use them in your Instagram bio. Make sure the words you select feel instantly relevant to what your brand does or what your business sells. Maybe you use words from the name of your business or a short phrase that encapsulates the overall vibe of your brand. Go for keywords that are easy for the casual visitor to understand. Avoid overly long words or words that are too obscure, as they can turn off visitors.

Food personality and author Padma Lakashmi has a good Instagram bio that uses a few keywords effectively. The first line highlights her key interests, which relate to her brand: “Feminist, Mother, Immigrant.” The second line notes her main gig and social proof, “Host of @bravotopchef.”

A phrase that contains keywords can also do the trick, like the one used in the Instagram bio of street photography site Humans of New York: “New York City, one story at a time.” This Instagram bio sums up the purpose of the Instagram account and includes keywords from the title of the account. It also draws visitors in and tells them exactly what they can expect when they follow Humans of New York.

Include Hashtags that Connect to Your Brand

Adding one or two hashtags to your Instagram bio is a great way to reinforce your brand. With Instagram’s recent upgrade, all hashtags in your bio can be turned into clickable links that take visitors to your online portfolio website . A simple and effective approach to hashtags is to include a call to action in the hashtag, where you encourage visitors to engage by using action words. You can also use keywords from your brand in the hashtag, such as the slogan or key message of your brand or business.

Choose a phrase you find inspiring or motivating and include a call to action to really make your hashtags effective. Creating effective hashtags in your Instagram bio should be a major part of your social media strategy for your brand.

For example, essential oil company Saje Wellness uses the hashtag “#spreadwellness” in their Instagram bio, using part of their brand name as a call to action to visitors.

Add an Emoji or Two

One of our favorite cool Instagram bio ideas? Use the visual language of emojis to your advantage by including some cute emojis that speak to your brand in your Instagram bio. Maybe your opt for the nailpolish and makeup emojis to tie into your beauty business , or pick an object emoji that reflects your brand’s personality, like a tiger emoji that represents your fierce approach to business. Rather than overwhelm visitors with a ton of emojis that are random or unrelated to your brand, pick a few that fit the tone and content of your Instagram.

Lifestyle media company Refinery29 , for example, leans into emojis incredibly well in their cute Instagram bio, using an emoji to represent each of the different content streams they offer through their brand.

You can also use emojis to visually highlight text in your bio, like in CEO and lifestyle personality Marie Forleo ’s Instagram bio, which uses two emojis to draw attention to the text.

Tap Into Instagram Stories Highlights

Another cool feature you can use to add a little oomph to your Instagram bio is Instagram Stories Highlights. This tool lets you pin stories from your Instagram just underneath the written content in your bio. Choose stories that feature your brand or show your business in action. Make sure you select highlights that tell visitors more about your personality and your brand as this will encourage them to follow you.

Group your highlights under topics, such as “Travel Photography,” “Shop,” “Work Outs,” or “Behind the Scenes” so it’s easier for visitors to click through your stories and engage with your profile.

Television creator, author, and producer Mindy Kaling uses Instagram Stories Highlights to show off her personality and her brand to her followers, grouping them under topics that are eye-catching and easy to access.

Stay Focused on Your Target Audience

Regardless of whether you include hashtags, emojis, or pin Stories, you should always keep your target audience top of mind when you are creating your Instagram bio. Think about how you want to help and inspire your ideal followers. Focus on the target audience for your brand or business and tailor your Instagram bio to what they are interested or engaged in. The more you consider the wants and needs of your ideal follower, the more you’ll attract quality followers who could eventually become your customers.

Linking Your Instagram Bio to Your Online Portfolio

As we’ve mentioned a few times in this handy guide, a good Instagram bio will highlight your brand—and one of the most effective ways you can promote your brand is through your online portfolio. A killer online portfolio is your number-one marketing tool, showcasing your best work, giving visitors a sense of your brand, and keeping them updated on exciting projects you’re working on. Here’s how a good Insta bio can connect more people with your portfolio.

Include an Outbound Link to Your Portfolio

Don’t be shy about promoting your portfolio website to visitors. Make sure you let them know just how awesome your online portfolio is by including an outbound link in your Instagram bio. This can be a simple link copied and pasted into the last line of your bio. You could also include a finger pointing emoji to really encourage visitors to click on the link and explore your online portfolio.

Because the link is going to be front and center in your Instagram bio, make sure your website URL is clean, simple, and easy to access. Avoid long URLs and if possible, purchase your domain name so the link appears with just your brand or business name. Another option is to go for an .art domain name , which is designed exclusively for artists and creative professionals.

Maintain an Amazing Online Portfolio

Keeping your online portfolio fresh and up-to-date is essential, especially if you are going to be linking to it in your Instagram bio. There’s nothing worse than clicking on a link to an online portfolio and finding an out-of-date website with poor design!

Don’t have an online portfolio yet? Use a website builder to build one in 10 easy steps and take your brand to the next level.

Pick one that has gorgeous templates to choose from, and offers features like a built-in blog and online store , plus client proofing .

This way, your new fans will always have something wonderful to browse through after perusing your Instagram bio—and could go from being Instagram followers to IRL clients.

Maximize the content you are creating on Instagram every day by integrating it into your online portfolio. This will help you keep your online portfolio connected to your social media, and vice-versa.

Pick an Online Portfolio with Instagram Integration

Integration tools make it easy for you to connect your social media accounts to your online portfolio. Go with an online portfolio site that publishes your Instagram feed right on your website .

Keep Viewers Coming Back to Your Instagram Bio

Now that you’ve aced your Instagram bio and your online portfolio, here’s a few tips on how to make sure fans keep returning to your content.

Update Your Social Media Accounts Regularly

Keep your social media presence fresh by updating your accounts regularly with new content that aligns with your brand or business. This is especially important if you are using integration tools and are linking to your social media in your Instagram bio. Updating your accounts on a regular basis will ensure your followers never scroll through stale content and stay connected to your brand.

Don’t have the time or energy to post on Instagram every day? Use an Instagram scheduling tool to make posting on Instagram easier, and more effective. Schedule several posts ahead of time so your Instagram remains current and you can stay on top of your social media accounts.

Keep Track of Your Social Media Stats

Building an effective Instagram account with a cool Insta bio is an accomplishment in itself, but that shouldn’t be where you stop. Track how well your Instagram bio is working with Instagram analytics tools that make it easy for you to keep tabs on your clicks, follows, and likes. Once you know how your Instagram is performing in real time, you can tweak your approach if necessary. With a good Instagram bio and a polished online portfolio, you should have no problem maintaining high stats.

You now have all the tools you need to create a cool Instagram bio. Good luck crafting your masterpiece!

50+ Instagram bio ideas to get inspiration for your business profile

As a business looking to build its online presence, you likely have a profile — or several — on Instagram. But is your profile catching the attention of your target audience and converting them to followers? With so much competition, you need a killer bio in your profile if you want to grow your Instagram followers and boost engagement. 

In this guide, you’ll learn why a good Instagram bio is essential for your business profile, along with tips for how to write one. You can also take inspiration from 50+ examples and templates for your Instagram bio to garner the results you want. 

What is an Instagram Bio?

How to write a good instagram bio, 10 instagram bio hacks to stand out, funny instagram bios, aesthetic instagram bios, cute instagram bios, classy instagram bios, motivational instagram bio ideas, creative instagram bio ideas, instagram bio ideas with emoji, cool instagram bio ideas, instagram bio quotes, short bio for instagram, instagram spacing bio.

An Instagram bio is a short piece of text at the top of a profile page that introduces your brand’s page and grabs users’ attention. It’s the first impression potential new followers (and customers) have of your brand and profile. 

Now we know the bio meaning, here are some of the important things to bear in mind. Firstly, Instagram bios can be a maximum of one hundred and fifty characters, so choose your words wisely. As well as your business name, username, and description, you can also include one link to your website, landing page, or other social media account. 

Now let’s look at why your brand’s Insta bio matters.

Why is your Instagram bio so important?

Your Instagram bio doesn’t take up much space, but it has a big impact. It’s the first thing your potential customers see when they go to your profile. They’ll decide whether or not your brand has what they’re looking for in the first few seconds it takes to read your bio. So you want it to be good. 

An Insta bio is the prime location to establish a connection with your audience. They’ll be looking for information about who you are and what you do, as well as any contact info like a website or other social handles. In your bio, you can tell your target customers why your business solves their problems. 

Showing off your brand personality is also important on Instagram. Whether you’re quirky and laid-back or ultra-cool, communicate your tone with a well-written bio. Potential customers will show more interest in your business if you express your brand identity.

What makes a good Instagram bio? You probably know a good one when you see one, but that doesn’t help much when it comes to writing your own. It can be hard to boil your whole business down to 150 characters! Just think of it as the ultimate marketing challenge and ask yourself some questions about your business to get started:

  • What makes your brand unique? Write a bio that describes how you stand out from your competitors.
  • What’s your brand tone or style? Are you funny, formal, offbeat, cute, or something else? Use the same tone and style you have on your website and other communication channels.
  • Where are you located? If you’re trying to appeal to local customers, make sure you include the location of your brick-and-mortar shop or business.
  • What action should people take after visiting your profile? Your bio should always prompt users to take action after reading — usually, it’s heading to your website.

Asking yourself questions about your brand is a good start, but you’ll need to do a little more legwork if you want a high-converting bio. Try these actionable hacks to help you craft the perfect bio. 

1. Add hashtags

Instagram lets you add hashtags to your bio, making it a great place to promote your company’s branded hashtags. This encourages followers to use your brand’s hashtags in their posts, boosting visibility and online presence. 

Note that adding hashtags to your bio doesn’t make your profile searchable with those hashtags, so it’s best used for your company-specific tags.

Activewear brand LuLuLemon encourages its followers to post pictures of themselves in their sportswear using its branded hashtag #thesweatlife.

2. Use a CTA

Want Instagram users to navigate to your website? Do you have a sale or promotion going on? Perhaps you want more subscribers to your newsletter? Your bio is the perfect place to add a compelling CTA that encourages users to take action.

We like this compelling call-to-action from jewelry maker Patrick Adair Designs. I mean, who doesn’t want free stuff, right?

3. Show off company personality with emojis

You want your Instagram bio to express your brand personality, and emojis help get the message across. They’re also a creative way to save space in your bio and break up chunks of text.  The key is to use them strategically and sparingly. Too many emojis are overkill.

4. Keep it short and sweet

You get 150 characters, but you don’t have to use them all. Make your bio snappy and easy to read. Remember that your bio should tell users what your brand’s unique selling point is as quickly as possible, so get to the point and avoid overly complicated language. It pays to be concise. 

5. Display company info

Put your company’s contact info in your Instagram bio to make it easier for people to find you. If you’re a local business with a brick-and-mortar store, add your address too. It also helps to build your brand credibility online and spark trust.

6. Add multiple links with Linktree

Linktree is a handy tool that lets you add multiple links that users can access from your bio. When they tap the link, they go to a page with several links you’ve added, such as your blog, YouTube channel, email signup list, or whatever else you want to add.

7. Choose a category

If you have a business account on Instagram, you can choose a category for your business. A category helps users know what kind of business you are and tells Instagram’s search algorithm to display your profile when people search for businesses in your area and category.

8. Use keywords

Using relevant keywords that your target audience may search for will make it easier for users within your demographic to find your profile. Don’t overdo it, but a couple of well-placed keywords in your IG bio could land you a new following. 

Use a social media management tool like Sociality.io to discover the top keywords users are searching for in your niche.

9. Social proof your bio

Building credibility and trust is a surefire way to get users to stop scrolling and hit the follow button. Down the line, that could lead to sales and viral status. So how do you build credibility quickly and in just 150 characters?

Social proof your bio by including any awards, accolades, or media mentions like this bio from Johnny Cupcakes.

10. Keep it updated

Your Instagram bio isn’t a do-once-and-forget type of thing. It needs to be updated routinely to reflect changes to your business, brand, or cultural shifts. 

Make it a point to review your Instagram bio regularly to make sure it’s still performing well.

50 Instagram bio ideas to get inspiration

Need some inspiration? We’ve rounded up 50 sensational IG bio ideas to get your creative juices flowing. Whether you’re all about aesthetics or comedy, these 50 bio ideas for Instagram will give you some food for thought.

Humor can be a great way to encapsulate your brand. Try a pun or joke to break the ice in your bio, like one of these funny bio ideas: 

Let’s start with everybody’s favorite rainbow-colored snack. Skittles is known for its fun and light-hearted branding, and this is reflected in its funny bios. In just three short sentences, Skittles manages to add humor, make a play on its iconic “Taste the Rainbow” tagline, and convince users to hit that follow button.

Innocent isn’t just known for its deliciously healthy drinks, fans of the brand will know it also has some pretty funny bios. The brand’s current bio is a tongue-in-cheek call-to-action that compels users to buy its drinks in an irreverent way, proving it’s not so innocent. 

Funny Instagram bios - innocent

It’s no surprise that funny card-game brand Cards Against Humanity would take a comedic route for its IG bio. The brand knows exactly who its target audience is and wastes no time poking fun at them in the bio. Cheeky and a little silly; very on brand. 

Funny Instagram bios - Cards Against Humanity

Don’t worry; you don’t need to be a world-famous company like these brands to flex your funny bone in your Instagram bio. If you want to add a splash of humor to your bio, try to think of a play on words related to your brand name or niche. 

Poo-Pourri is a great example of how a relatively small brand can harness humor to make its IG bio pack a punch. As well as lightening the mood with a little toilet humor, it even tells followers where to find its product in stores. 

Funny Instagram bios - Poo-Pourri

Instagram is all about aesthetics, so your bio should reflect that. Opting for a stylish and visually appealing bio will enhance your IG profile, represent your brand, and help you stand out for all the right reasons.

Here are some Instagram bio ideas aesthetics.

  • Interesting fonts that catch users’ eyes
  • Bold or italic writing
  • Pastel-colored emojis to fit your color palette
  • Kaomojis for a fun and quirky vibe, like these smileys: (*^‿^*) (◕‿◕) (*^‿^*) ʕ ᵔᴥᵔ ʔ

When used properly, emojis are a fun way to break up text, get your message across, and show off your brand’s personality. After all, a picture paints a thousand words. With that in mind, you want to choose emojis that really reflect what you’re trying to say and that enhance rather than distract from your message.

Here are a few Instagram bio emoji ideas to inspire you.

Fast Food chain Wendy’s is known for its funny social media posts, and this emoji-only bio is no different. It perfectly sums up what the brand is all about by using just a couple of strategically curated emojis. In fact, we’d go as far as saying this is the best Instagram bio with emoji we’ve ever seen.

Creating an Instagram cool bio will make your profile shine in a sea of competitors, allowing your brand identity to come through. However, it can be tough to find ways to make your IG bio cool and relevant.

Here are a few examples of brands with unique and cool Instagram bios.

Baby goods company Tasty Tie takes an interesting approach with its IG bio. On top of some well-placed emojis to give it a cohesive look and feel, Tasty Tie does something most other brands don’t. Can you see what?

That’s right! Next to the CTA (tag your little one @tastytie), it says that the brand follows users back. That’s a clever way to grow your following and build an engaged audience.

how to write creative bio on instagram

Of course, not all brands can follow every one of their followers back. So, bigger companies will need to find other ways to stand out and connect with users. Another hack for doing this is to keep your company’s bio short and value-driven. Focusing on your brand’s raison d’etre will give you heaps of credibility and spark trust.

Ethical footwear company Toms does exactly that with a short bio that says a lot.

Sometimes, the best way to demonstrate your brand personality is with someone else’s words. Quotes can be inspirational, quirky, or humorous. Any of the following bio short quotes would work well for a business on Instagram:

  • Energy and persistence conquer all things – Benjamin Franklin
  • If you don’t like the road you’re walking, start paving another one – Dolly Parton
  • Imagination is more important than knowledge – Albert Einstein
  • The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing – Walt Disney
  • Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts – Winston Churchill
  • Play by the rules, but be ferocious – Phil Knight
  • Every problem is a gift—without problems, we would not grow – Anthony Robbins 

A word of warning, though. When it comes to choosing a quote, it’s vital that you go for something on-brand, unique, and relevant. Adding a quote just for the sake of it won’t garner the results you’re looking for.

For instance, if you’re a lifestyle brand, you should look for positive aesthetic quotes that fit with your products and services and look and feel. A travel provider will probably want to add aesthetic short quotes about the benefits of seeing the world, whereas a sustainable fashion company may want something related to saving the world. 

Just because you have 150 characters to play with doesn’t mean you should use all of them. In fact, as you’ll see in the examples below, sometimes the shorter, the better. Users are short on time, so tell them the essential information in as few words as possible. Trust us, they’ll thank you for it.

Dunkin’ Donuts keeps its Insta bio short and sweet, just like its delicious donuts. Not only does it play off its “American runs on Dunkin’” tagline, but it uses emojis of a donut and coffee to let potential followers know exactly what the brand does right away. Proof that you don’t need to use the full one hundred and fifty words to make something impactful and on brand.

It couldn’t get much more concise than makeup mogul Anastasia Beverly Hill’s bio. In just a few words, it tells us what the brand does, gives us social proof, offers a branded hashtag, and has a clear CTA. Low fuss, high impact.

Ice cream makers Ben and Jerry’s say a lot in a few words with their “Peace, Love, & Ice Cream” bio line.

Playing around with line spacing in your bio doesn’t just make your content easier to read, it showcases your brand’s personality too. If you haven’t already, get creative with your bio and use punctuation, emojis, or symbols to make a unique-looking bio that’s easy on the eyes.

Alternatively, you can use the IG line break generator or the notes app on your phone to create space in your bio. The best scheduling software will also allow you to create line breaks to highlight key information and make your bio more readable and polished.

Roadside burger joint Shake Shack uses a simple period to create a line break in its IG bio. This breaks up the text nicely, giving the bio a clean and crisp appearance.

Instagram spacing bio

In closing…

Getting your Instagram bio right could be just the thing to boost brand credibility and visibility and win new followers. However, you need to have a strong brand identity. Knowing who your brand is for and what you offer allows you to engage your target audience. And when in doubt, keep it short and state your company’s mission. The most important thing to remember about an Instagram bio for your business profile is that it should provide value for your potential customers.

Of course, your bio is only one integral part of managing your Instagram business account . You also have to engage with followers, publish awesome content, and even analyze what your competitors are doing on the platform to truly grow your presence on Instagram.  With the Sociality Engage , Publish , and Competitor Analysis modules, you and your team can easily manage multiple accounts and get all the insights you need to create an effective Instagram strategy.

While your Instagram content might be what draws someone over to your profile initially, your Instagram bio is one of the major components that will keep them there—and maybe even earn your brand a follow.

Think about this: if you like a photo or video on Instagram and then go to the profile and their bio is completely blank (or lacks vital information) you’re going to immediately lose interest or think the account is a fake and leave. No follow and no looking back.

Others do the same, so it’s important to fully optimize your Instagram strategy —bio and all.

What is an Instagram bio?

Why an instagram business bio matters, what to put in an instagram bio, tips for writing the best instagram bios for business (+ examples), create a compelling instagram bio for your business.

An Instagram bio is a description of your business that sits at the top of your Instagram profile. It can only be up to 150 characters, so you want to be concise, sharing what your business does and who it serves in as few words as possible.

Take a look at our own Instagram bio to get an idea of what this might look like:

An Instagram bio example from Sprout Social

We’ll get into each of these more thoroughly later, but our full bio includes:

  • Our Instagram handle
  • Our brand name
  • Bio description

There are a few more things you can consider including within your own bio to further share what your business does.

First of all, why does your Instagram business profile bio matter so much? As simple as it may seem, an Instagram bio plays a critical role in establishing your brand presence. It shows people who you are and what you sell. You can also use the same space to tell them why they should care about your business and its offering.

In many cases, your Instagram profile may be the first point of contact whether someone finds you through an Instagram hashtag or by clicking through from a paid post or sharing on Stories. Your bio is an important first impression while clarifying why they should follow you.

That’s why you should focus on creating an Instagram business bio that effectively portrays your brand personality and establishes your unique value proposition. In other words, it should factor into your overall  Instagram business strategy .

Writing your Instagram bio for business is one key part of  creating the perfect Instagram business profile . Here are the essential elements that go into your Instagram bio:

1. Name and username

Your Instagram username is your @handle and your Instagram identity. It’s a part of your Instagram profile URL (instagram.com/myusername) and holds a prominent location at the top of your profile page.

On the other hand, your name is your real or full brand name. Depending on data sources like audience and  keyword research , you may know of abbreviations or name variations commonly used for your brand name. You might consider using those in one spot in your Instagram bio, such as in your username.

For instance, in the following Instagram business profile example, the username for Sprouts Farmers Market is just @sprouts but the name section has the full name of the business.

An Instagram bio example from Sprout's Farmers Market

2. Profile photo and branding

This should be relevant to your  brand’s visual identity . Best practices dictate that you should use a high-res image of your logo in order to improve brand recognition and keep all of your social media profiles on brand. However, solopreneurs and public figures often use headshots, and that’s a perfectly acceptable alternative.

For brands with a widely-recognized visual identity like National Geographic TV, the iconic yellow rectangle logo makes for a great profile photo.

Another way to brand your Instagram profile is through your Instagram highlight covers . While not necessarily a part of your bio, these still show up at the top of your profile and give you an opportunity to inject even more color into your Instagram.

3. Instagram bio copy

This is the section under your name, where you get to express yourself (or in this case, your brand personality). You have 150 characters to tell people what your Instagram profile is about, what your brand offers and why they should follow you. So you don’t have much to work with, which makes it even more crucial to plan ahead and perfect your Instagram business bio.

Here’s an example of great bio copy from BarkBox. They start with a simple sentence that explains exactly what their business does. They tag their parent company. Then they even include a couple of hashtags that BarkBox customers can use when showing off their boxes.

An Instagram bio example from BarkBox

4. Bio links

This is the only section that allows you to add clickable links on Instagram to your website, so make sure you use this space wisely. While you can always add a URL to your homepage, you can also add up to five links more frequently by posting new products, new content, new projects and more.

Many brands use a link-in-bio tool to maximize the five link limit by taking the user to a landing page with shortcuts to featured content and product pages.

An Instagram bio example from Away

5. Category

Instagram also allows you to specify which category your brand falls under—whether you run a restaurant or a media and entertainment company. This shows up right under your business name if you choose to enable it, so it helps free up space in your Instagram bio for other important details.

As we can see below, Bloomscape has selected “Patio/Garden” as their brand category.

An Instagram bio example from Bloomscape

6. Call-to-action and contact buttons

You could further free up space in your Instagram bio if you make the most of the call-to-action buttons available for Instagram Business accounts. This allows people to take action straight from your Instagram profile when on the mobile app, making it easier for customers to convert on actions—from buying tickets to booking tables.

Keep in mind that these are only accessible on the mobile app, and they’ll look something like the “View Shop,” “Message,” and “Call” buttons below:

An Instagram bio example from Elemis

Now that you know what goes into an Instagram bio, let’s take a look at tips on how to write the best Instagram bios for business.

1. Know what your goal is

Since you have to stay within the 150-character limit, it’s crucial that you have a clear sense of direction when writing your Instagram bio. Knowing exactly what you want out of your bio will help you narrow down what to say.

For instance, you could simply use it to convey your brand’s personality and announce your Instagram presence. You could also use it to promote your latest products and offers or inform people about what your business does. If you do promote sales and recent products, be sure your team is ready to regularly refresh your Instagram bio and ensure this info is up to date.

Some businesses also use this section to express their  brand mission and what they stand for. Check out the following Instagram business profile example from Grove Collaborative. The company’s bio tells us a little bit about what the business sells and what its overall mission is.

An Instagram bio example from Grove Collaborative

Here’s another great example of a basic bio that’s straightforward and explains exactly what the company (Slack in this instance) does:

An Instagram bio example from Slack

2. Let your brand personality shine through

Make the most of your Instagram business bio to express your brand personality. This includes the language and tone you use or what you say, in general. For instance, Reese’s uses a fun and friendly tone in its bio while using the opportunity to establish its brand authority.

An Instagram bio example from Reese's

Some businesses may also add relevant emojis if that kind of approach fits the brand personality. But note that special characters and emojis may not translate well on a screen reader. Be sure to keep  accessibility best practices  in mind for all your followers and avoid filling your entire bio with characters that are hard to read or understand for customers using screen readers.

3. Include relevant hashtags and profile links

Instagram lets you add clickable hashtags and profile links in your bio. So make the most of this to direct customers to your other Instagram handles or to relevant, tagged content.

The option to add profile links is great for businesses that  manage multiple accounts . See how Madewell added a link to their Instagram account for menswear.

An Instagram bio example from Madewell

Brands can also take a page out of Weezie’s book, tagging the accounts of their founders as well as their brick-and-mortar store (ideal when you have two different social media strategies for your retail versus ecommerce avenues).

An Instagram bio example from Weezie Towels

As for hashtags, adding them to your bio will let you direct your audience to stunning tagged user-generated content. You could use a branded hashtag to collect user-generated content like Cupshe. The swimsuit brand included several hashtags they track for content to feature on their own account.

An Instagram bio example from Cupshe

4. Make sure it’s easy to read

As mentioned earlier, your Instagram bio should be able to convey what your business does or what it offers. So it’s crucial that people can easily read and process the information without too much trouble. Formatting such as line breaks and spacing makes it easier to read and emphasize important information at a glance.

You could use a pipe or vertical bar character to space out your info like in the following Instagram business profile example from Leder Games. They used the symbol to separate their most popular game offerings.

An Instagram bio example from Leder Games

You could also use line breaks to style your info in a list format. See how this bio skillfully uses lists, incorporating emojis as a kind of bullet point.

An Instagram bio example from Kundalini Candles

Keep in mind that these characters and line breaks will factor into your total character count. So make sure you use them sparingly and strategically to avoid going over the character limit. You could also test different formatting to see how they impact your overall profile engagement. Use a tool like  Sprout Social’s Instagram analytics suite  to measure how your profile engagement changes as you update.

5. Include a compelling call to action

While the call-to-action buttons frees up a lot of space in your bio, it doesn’t hurt to get more direct with your CTA. Make sure people know exactly what they need to do when they visit your profile by including a CTA in your bio.

Get very specific with this depending on the goal of your Instagram business account. You could invite them to visit your website, shop your feed, check out your latest blog post, download your new guide or even share their own photos using your branded hashtag. If you want to  grow your Instagram following , you could even add a CTA to “follow us” for your regular content such as daily recipes, fashion updates and so on.

For example, Ahrefs uses their bio text to create a CTA that points (literally, thanks to their use of emoji) to their latest feature release.

An Instagram bio example from Ahrefs

Dress Up uses its bio to direct people to sign up for SMS marketing messages by offering a discount right inside the bio. This is a great way to get people to take immediate action  and increase your text marketing list.

An Instagram bio example from Dress Up

Your Instagram bio could make all the difference in boosting your social presence. It’s the perfect place to exhibit your brand identity and show off your creative side. It could also help you showcase your uniqueness and entertain your audience.

Plus, by strategically using a link in bio tool, your bio can help increase clicks and conversions and improve your Instagram analytics by helping you reach your goals.

Instagram bio FAQs

When you edit your profile, you’ll add your bio link into the field next to “Website.” You only get one link here, which is why many brands prefer to use a link-in-bio tool that helps them create an Instagram-specific landing page.

Edit your profile and paste your preferred link into the “Website” field. Simple as that!

The Instagram bio character limit is just 150 characters, so use them wisely.

It’s short, informative, and gives potential followers a well-rounded idea of what they can expect from your content. 

How can you achieve it? Our top tips for the perfect Instagram bio await, below.

Add Your Branded Hashtag

Use Instagram Stories Highlights

Update Your Bio Regularly 

#1: Keep It Short & Sweet

Brief, yet captivating is the golden standard for a good Instagram bio. 

This makes long phrases and emoji overload a huge no-no.

Instead, stick to short, easy-to-read phrases that get the point across quickly. 

Aka, don’t overcomplicate it — for the most part, your content speaks for itself. 

FYI: You can create a clickable version of your Instagram feed with Linkin.bio by Later . Sign up today to level-up your Instagram bio:

#2: Include Relevant Keywords

ICYMI: a strong Instagram SEO strategy is one of the best ways to increase your reach on the platform. 

And while this mainly involves the captions you write — your account’s name and bio can play a role too. 

So, take a moment to brainstorm keywords your target audience may search for on Instagram, and pop them into your name field . 

See how food blogger and author Sam Turnbull uses the keyword “vegan recipes” to boost her account’s discovery:

Sam Turnbull's Instagram profile, with an arrow pointing to her name field.

Now, if someone searches this keyword, Sam has a better chance of popping up as a result.

#3: Use a Link in Bio Tool 

With the ability to add only one external link to your Instagram bio, how do you narrow it down? 

Hint: you don’t have to.  

With Linkin.bio by Later , you can create a landing page with button links and a clickable version of your Instagram feed: 

Drive Traffic by Encouraging Viewers to Head to Your Link in Bio

This makes it easy to direct followers to specific web pages referenced in your posts, your other social accounts or websites , a product page — you name it.

A streamlined experience for your audience without having to frequently update the URL in your Instagram bio? Talk about a win-win.

#4: Show Your Personality

After all, your Instagram bio is all about you or your brand — so don’t shy away from sharing your story and giving a peek into your personality. 

Use this space to speak directly to your target audience and highlight your skills, background, or a common phrase you use.

This way, potential followers will immediately understand what you’re all about.

See how Chelsea Davis introduces herself in four short lines:

@chelseadoestravel Instagram profile.

#5: Include a Call-to-action

A good Instagram bio will drive followers to perform an action — whether it's participating in a survey or listening to your latest podcast episode.

And that means including an effective call-to-action (CTA). 

Just remember the golden rule: be clear and specific. 

For example, Girlboss invites followers to subscribe to their newsletter, Girlboss Daily in a simple one-liner:

Screenshot of Girlboss' Instagram bio with an arrow pointing to their CTA.

And to encourage even more profile clicks, make use of Action Buttons. 

Depending on your account, you can include: Order food, Book now, Get quote, Reserve, View shop, or Learn more.

Screenshot x2 of @loopsbylauryn & @thelucasokeefe Instagram bios, with arrows pointing to their CTA buttons.

Simple: ask and you shall receive.

#6: Add Your Contact Info

With an Instagram Business profile , you unlock the ability to add contact information to your Instagram bio. 

This includes your email address, phone number, and brick-and-mortar address — no additional character count required. 

Rug tufting business Fuzzy Lab and marketing community Pretty Little Marketer both have contact information available for new visitors and their followers:

Screenshot x2 of @fuzzylab_tufting & @prettylittlemarketer Instagram bios, with arrows pointing to contact information.

The takeaway? Make it easy for a visitor or follower to reach out with the click of a button.

P.S. Did you know that Later is an official Instagram partner? Sign up today to start planning and scheduling your content in advance:

#7: Add Your Branded Hashtag

Another tip for a good Instagram bio? Two words: clickable hashtags. 

Whether you’re promoting an Instagram contest or a UGC (user-generated content) campaign , including a clickable branded hashtag in your Instagram bio is a huge engagement tactic . 

See how home goods brand Brentwood Home encourages UGC with their branded hashtag: 

Brentwood Home's Instagram bio with an arrow pointing to their branded hashtag.

Now, the brand has a dedicated space of organic customer content that they can engage with, repost, and (by request) repurpose. 

NOTE: While a branded hashtag can help you spotlight and collect UGC, placing hashtags in your Instagram bio doesn’t make your profile discoverable via hashtag search.

#8: Use Emojis Sparingly

A splash of color (or emojis) is a great way to add some personality into your Instagram bio — but don’t overdo it. 

Why? It has the potential to affect the accessibility of your content for those with visual impairments. 

So, it’s best to keep things short and sweet. 

Use emojis sparingly to highlight any CTAs (call-to-actions) or to add some pizzazz to your bio, like Later :

Salute emoji. 🫡

#9: Use Instagram Stories Highlights

Instagram Stories Highlights are perfect for sharing FAQs, roundups, and community spotlights.

They also have the potential to make your Instagram bio more appealing and click-worthy. 

Think: product launches, booking info, and anything else worth the 24-hour shelf life extension. 

And if you want to add a little spice, you can create a set of on-brand covers to ensure a consistent look and feel.

Nail artist Christina uses Stories Highlights to organize appointment availabilities, price lists, art inspo, and more: 

Screenshot of @glowbychristina's Instagram bio.

In other words: timely, clean Instagram Stories Highlights = boosted Instagram bio views + a stronger brand aesthetic on your profile. 

TIP: To create your own Instagram Stories Highlights covers, read this Later blog: How to Create Instagram Stories Highlights Covers (+ Free Icons!) .

#10: Update Your Bio Regularly 

An up-to-date Instagram bio gives viewers the most current info about you and your happenings.

On the flip side, an outdated bio can be misleading and result in the loss of potential followers.

So, if you haven’t updated your Instagram bio in a while, this is a sign (or 10) to give it a refresh.

With Later Link in Bio you can create a custom landing page that turns the link in your Instagram bio into a home with all of your important links. Create a free account today .
