own.page alternative: Page vs own.page

TL;DR

• own.page has a real free plan, then Pro at $79.90 a year. It leans toward a small personal site, with widgets and up to 5 pages on Pro.
• Page has no free published plan. It costs $5.99 a month, $49 a year, or $149 once, and every plan is the same page.
• Pick own.page if free is what you need, or if you want several pages. Pick Page if you want the cheaper yearly price, a one-time option, and full click history on the one plan.

The short answer

If you can live on a free plan, own.page is the better deal, because Page has none. If you plan to pay, Page is $30.90 a year cheaper than own.page Pro ($49 against $79.90), and it also offers a $149 one-time plan, which we did not find on own.page.

Page vs own.page at a glance

"Not stated" means we did not find it on own.page's pricing page. It does not mean own.page lacks it.

Price: what you actually pay

own.page is free, then $79.90 a year on Pro. Page is $49 a year, or $5.99 a month, or $149 once.

On a yearly basis, Page costs $30.90 less than own.page Pro. Over three years that is about $93 less, and over the same three years Page's $149 one-time plan ($149 against $239.70) comes out about $90 below own.page Pro.

That math only matters if you would pay anyway. Many people will not need to. own.page's free plan covers one page with unlimited links and a week of analytics, and for a simple list of links that may be all you need.

Analytics

own.page's free plan shows today, yesterday and the last 7 days. Pro adds full history and custom date ranges.

Page's report is the same on every paid plan. It counts views, unique visitors, and taps on each link, card, player and social icon. It splits visits by referrer, UTM tags, country, device and browser, and you can pick 7 days, 30 days, 90 days or all time. The clicks download as a CSV. Page does not name who tapped.

If you want to compare quarters or hand the numbers to someone else, Page's CSV helps. If a week of numbers is enough, own.page's free plan is enough.

Layout and widgets

own.page's pitch is a mini website. It lists widgets for YouTube, Spotify, GitHub, Calendly, newsletters and forms, and it lets you collect emails. On Pro you get 5 customizable pages and unlimited advanced widgets.

Page is plainer. You get a column of blocks: links, cards, social icons, text, players, a gallery, events, a year of GitHub activity, a discount code to copy and a contact card that saves to a phone. Up to 60 blocks fit on a page, and there are 9 theme presets you can recolor. The contact block is not a CRM and keeps no lead list.

If you want a richer, website-like page, own.page is closer to that. If you want a short page that gets someone to one link fast, Page is enough.

Selling and fees

Neither tool is a checkout. On Page, a shop link leaves the page, checkout stays on your shop, and Page takes no cut. Your shop's own payment fees still apply. own.page's blog says it charges no transaction fees on either plan.

own.page vs Linktree

Who should pick which

Pick own.page if:

• You want a free plan that stays free.
• You want a few separate pages, or a page that feels like a small website.
• You want widgets such as forms and newsletters on the page.

Pick Page if:

• You would rather pay $49 a year than $79.90, or pay $149 once and stop thinking about it.
• You want full click history and a CSV on the one plan.
• You want a page that stays short and fast to scan. See link in bio for freelancers for a worked example.

What Page does worse than own.page

• No free published plan. You can build a draft free with no card, but others cannot open the page until you pay.
• Fewer widget types.
• No checkout, courses or bookings. A shop link goes out to your shop.
• No mobile app. You edit in a browser.

Switching from own.page to Page

1. Copy your links, bio and photo from your own.page editor.
2. Claim your name on Page and paste the links into the draft. It is free and needs no card.
3. Publish when it looks right.
4. Replace your own.page address in your Instagram, TikTok or X profile with your new Page URL.

Page has no import file, so you paste your links in.

Conclusion

Start with own.page if free matters most. Come to Page if you are going to pay anyway and want the lower yearly price, the one-time option, and the full click history on every plan. The draft is free, so you can build it and compare before you pay. See Page pricing.
