Why Individuals Use Link Management

Not only companies and creators need organised links. Individuals increasingly require clean, trackable and well-structured digital navigation tools for:

• job applications,
• portfolio sharing,
• school or university projects,
• personal branding,
• daily communication,
• community groups and hobbies,
• small personal projects,
• nonprofit or event organising,
• travel planning or study collections.

A dedicated link system helps individuals stay organised across platforms and maintain clarity when sharing links with others.

Organising Personal Links

Individuals often manage many types of links:

• portfolio links,
• important documents,
• social profiles,
• CV or LinkedIn attachments,
• educational resources,
• travel itineraries,
• community and hobby groups,
• event invitations.

Cuttly provides an organised dashboard where individuals can manage all of these URLs in one place.

Link-in-Bio Pages for Personal Use

Link-in-bio pages aren’t only for creators or businesses. Individuals also use them for:

• personal websites without coding,
• digital CV hubs,
• study resource lists,
• portfolio collections,
• links for events or community groups,
• family or friend sharing hubs.

Cuttly Link-in-bio pages are simple, mobile-friendly and can be hosted on cutt.bio, cutt.ly or custom domains. Explore the Link-in-Bio Tool.

QR Codes for Everyday Life

QR Codes have become part of everyday communication. Individuals use QR Codes for:

• resume or portfolio QR on printed CVs,
• QR Codes for wedding invitations,
• QR for events, workshops or classes,
• QR on personal business cards,
• home or school project materials,
• QR Codes for clubs, sports or meetups,
• contact-sharing at conferences.

Analytics for Personal Projects

Individuals benefit from analytics when sharing:

• resumes or job-related materials,
• portfolio websites,
• event invitations,
• community or club resources,
• personal projects or pages.

Analytics reveal when links are clicked, on which devices, in which countries and from which sources.

Tags & Campaigns for Organisation
