Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about building your website with Milkshake.
What is Milkshake?
Milkshake is a free website builder app for iPhone, iPad and Android. You make a Milkshake site on your phone in a few minutes: pick your pages (we call them Cards), add your words, photos, links and products, choose a Look (our design templates) and publish. No coding or design skills needed. Milkshake has over 6 million users.
How can I get the Milkshake app?
The app is available for download on the Apple App Store for iPhones and iPads, or on Google Play for Android devices, at no cost.
What is a Milkshake website?
A Milkshake website is a website built from your mobile device using the free Milkshake iOS or Android app. These sites are quick to create and update entirely via your phone.
How can I use a Milkshake website?
You can introduce yourself, share services or products, promote content like blogs and videos, recommend items, sell digital products, showcase your work, launch businesses, or receive bookings and clients.
Why do I need a Milkshake website?
A site of your own gives everything you do a proper home. Each Card is a page, so your shop, your work, your latest video and how to reach you each get room of their own. And Instagram and TikTok only give you a link or two on your profile, so one Milkshake link takes people to all of it.
How many Milkshake websites can I make?
You can create up to 5 Milkshake websites at a time using account switching. If you need more, just remove an account to free up a slot.
What if I already have a website?
Paste its link on our Switch to Milkshake page and see it as a Milkshake site in seconds, then move the whole thing over. If you'd rather keep your old site, a Milkshake site works fine alongside it.
What are Cards?
Milkshake Cards are the website pages that make up your Milkshake website. Each Card has a specific purpose, like a Splash page, About page, Links page, Contact page, Top Picks page, or Sell page. Learn more about Cards.
What are Looks?
A Look is the design that you give to your Milkshake Card. You can use different Looks for each Card or keep your brand strong using one Look for all Cards. Learn more about Looks.
Can I make changes after publishing my Milkshake website?
Yes! You can open the app anytime to edit your site, then tap Publish for changes to appear on your live website.
How do I share a Milkshake website?
Share via social networks including Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, Facebook, YouTube, and others. You can also add it to digital documents, business cards, and email signatures.
Do I need to keep updating the link in my Instagram profile?
No! Your Milkshake link remains constant regardless of how many updates you make to your website content.
Will using Milkshake hurt my Instagram?
Not at all. Adding a Milkshake link to your Instagram profile won't harm your account. It should actually boost engagement by connecting followers to your offerings.
How much does Milkshake cost?
Milkshake is completely free to use. For extra features like removing branding, custom domains, contact forms, and advanced analytics, we offer Lite, Pro, and Pro+ plans. Check out our pricing page for full details.
Can I use my own domain name?
Yes! With a Pro+ plan, you can connect your own custom domain to your Milkshake website. On free and lower-tier plans, your site is hosted on a msha.ke link.
Does my site work on desktop and mobile?
Milkshake websites are optimized for mobile but work great on desktop too. Your visitors will have a smooth experience no matter what device they use. See examples.
Can I sell digital products with Milkshake?
Yes! Add a Sell Card to sell digital files like presets, guides, and templates straight from your site. Payments are handled securely by Stripe, and buyers get an instant download link. Selling works on every plan, including Free, and upgrading just lowers the per-sale fee. Learn more about selling.
Is Milkshake just a link-in-bio tool?
No. Milkshake is a website builder. Your site can have as many pages (Cards) as you need: About, links, Top Picks, a Contact form, blog posts, YouTube videos, a shop for digital products and more. Your link in bio is just the address people tap to get there. See how it works.
