More than just a link. It's your identity.

Beacons.ai is a popular social aggregator, but for creators who treat their passion as a business, a simple list of widgets isn’t enough. While Beacons focuses on showing off your social feeds, TapToLink (TTL) is built for one thing: conversions. By combining professional niche domains with intent-driven Bridge Pages, we help you turn curious followers into loyal customers without the social media noise.

1. The “Niche Authority” Advantage

Beacons keeps everyone under one roof: beacons.ai. While this is great for their brand, it does little for yours.

The TTL Advantage: We help you own your niche.

  • Athletes: Use hoops.bio or pigskin.bio.

  • Nutritionists: Use macros.bio.

  • Creators: Use genx.to.

When a user sees a niche-aligned domain in your bio, it builds immediate trust and context before they even click the link.

2. High-Intent “Bridge” Architecture

Beacons is designed to be browsed. TapToLink is designed to be actioned.

  • Beacons: A user lands on your page and sees your TikTok feed, your latest tweet, your tip jar, and ten different links. They are often overwhelmed by “choice paralysis.”

  • TapToLink: We use Bridge Pages to focus the user. If you are promoting a specific product, your link sends them to a dedicated micro-landing page with one goal: warming them up for the sale. This “one-path” focus is why TTL users see higher intent and better conversion data.

3. All-in-One Utility vs. Feature Creep

Beacons is constantly adding new widgets—from media kits to income trackers. This can make the platform feel complex and cluttered.

TapToLink stays lean and powerful. We provide exactly what a professional needs to manage their traffic:

  • Bio-Stacks: For your central hub.

  • Bridge Pages: For your sales funnels.

  • Branded Shortlinks: For your social captions.

By replacing your bio tool, your landing page builder, and your link shortener (like Bitly), TapToLink simplifies your workflow and saves you hundreds of dollars in “subscription creep”.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is TapToLink better for affiliate marketing than Beacons?

Yes, because of our Bridge Page architecture. While Beacons is great for showing your personality, TapToLink is built to 'warm up' traffic before it hits a retail site like Amazon, protecting your conversion rates.

Do I need to manage multiple domains with TapToLink?

No. You get access to our entire ecosystem (20+ domains) through a single dashboard. You can have a fitness link on macros.bio and a professional link on genx.to all managed from one place.

Does Beacons have a built-in shortener like TapToLink?

No. Beacons focuses on the link-in-bio page itself. TapToLink is a complete 'Traffic Cop' suite that includes a professional branded shortener, replacing the need for extra subscriptions.
