Comparison
A Beacons alternative for creators who want to own their page
Beacons bundles a link-in-bio page with a creator store and media kit, and takes a cut or a monthly fee for the good parts. If you mainly need a beautiful link page, owning it outright is simpler.
The short answer
The alternative to Beacons for creators who just need a link-in-bio page is a self-hosted page you own: one HTML file, your own domain, no platform branding, no fees on what you sell through your links. Beacons is better if you want its built-in store, media kit, and email tools in one dashboard.

When Beacons is the better choice
Beacons is better if you want selling, a media kit, and email capture in one place without stitching tools together. Bloom is for creators who want a distinctive page they own and already sell elsewhere.
