Instagram profile template
Choose what you do and get a complete starting layout for your Instagram profile: a bio, five highlight names, nine post ideas for your grid and what to put behind your link.
Your profile
A plain drawing to help you plan, not Instagram itself. The tiles are ideas, not real posts.
Pick your bio
Counted as typed, with each emoji as two characters. Instagram's limit is 150. Check every line is true before you publish it.
Highlights to create
Five short names for the circles under your bio. Make a highlight from stories you already have, then choose its cover and name.
What to put behind your link
Your link is the one place a follower can act. These three are a good start for your kind of work.
Your first nine posts
One idea per tile, in a mix of Reels, carousels and photos. Swap in your own pictures and facts.
Take it with you
Copy the whole template as plain text and paste it into your notes.
Give the link in your bio a home
A Linkerzz page holds your links, your contact form and your best work behind one address. It is free to start.
How to use the Instagram profile template
- Pick what you do. Each choice has its own highlight names, post ideas and link plan.
- Add your name and a few details. They fill the preview and shape the bio.
- Choose a bio from the three offered, or press "Other bios" for a different set.
- Copy what you like, or copy everything at once.
- Build it in Instagram. Paste the bio from Edit profile, create the highlights and post your first nine, in the order that suits you.
What goes on an Instagram profile?
Anyone who opens your profile sees your profile photo, name, username and bio, and your highlights and posts below them. So the parts that decide whether someone follows are small: a clear photo, a bio that says who you help, a link that does something, and a few highlights and posts that show your work. This template plans each of them.
Highlights
Instagram's Help Center says that stories you add as highlights stay on your profile until you remove them, even after the story disappears. You make one with New, then choose stories, Next, and Edit cover to pick the cover photo and name. Short names read best under a small circle, which is why the suggestions here are one or two words.
The bio and the link
A bio can be up to 150 characters, according to Instagram. If you want more variety, the Instagram bio generator makes six at a time, and our guide on how to write a bio for Instagram explains the formula. For the link, see what to put in your link in bio, or how to add it.
Names and captions
Still looking for a name? Try the Instagram username generator. When your first posts are ready, the Instagram caption generator helps with the words.
Questions
What is an Instagram profile template?
A ready layout for your profile: a name and category line, a bio, a link, names for your highlight circles and a plan for the first nine posts in your grid. This tool builds one for your kind of work and shows it as a simple preview.
Is this an official Instagram template?
No. It is a planning tool made by Linkerzz, and the preview is a plain drawing, not Instagram itself. Nothing is posted for you; you copy the parts you like into Instagram.
How do highlights work?
Instagram's Help Center says stories you add as highlights stay on your profile until you remove them, even after the story itself disappears. To make one, tap New (or Story highlight), choose the stories, tap Next, then use Edit cover to pick a cover photo and a name. The people who can see your story can also see your highlights.
How long can the bio be?
150 characters, according to Instagram's Help Center. Every bio in this template is 150 characters or fewer.
Do the post ideas promise more followers?
No. They are starting points in plain words: what to show and say in your first nine posts. Use your own photos, prices and facts, and only share what is true and what clients agreed to.
Is anything I type saved or sent?
No. The template is built in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to our servers or stored.
Where does the link go?
Instagram says you can add up to 5 websites to your profile, and anyone can see them. A link in bio page puts everything you want to share behind one address, and the preview shows where yours would point.
Is it free?
Yes, with no sign-up.
