How to Set Up a Custom URL in Your Steam Profile

Fancy customizing your Steam profile with your own URL? Here are the steps you need to follow.

Steam is the most popular online gaming platform for PC gamers, with an extensive catalog of games available and a social system built in that allows you to connect with your friends.

Games are always more fun when you're playing with friends, so ensuring they can find your profile easily is a worthwhile task. If you're looking to change your Steam custom URL, you've come to the right place.

What Is a Steam Custom URL?

A Steam Custom URL is the URL that appears when somebody goes to your profile page, after the steampowered.com/ part of the web address. People can come to your profile to send you a friend request, look at your achievements, give you a gift, or compare their profile to yours. You can even remote play together.

Steam doesn't have a unique display name feature like other platforms, meaning that you can have the same display name as somebody else. Due to this, finding somebody's profile can be confusing because often, they'll have the same display name as 20+ others. To get around this, custom URLs are useful as, by following a link with a custom URL, you'll find the correct person you're looking for.

Changing Your Steam Custom URL Via the Website

Changing your Steam custom URL via the website is simple and you can achieve this following these steps:

Head to the Steam website and log in.
Click on your display name on the top-right of the screen and then select View Profile from the dropdown menu.
On the right-hand side of the screen, underneath your level, click Edit Profile.
In the Custom URL field, type out your desired URL.
Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click Save.

By following these steps, you should now have a custom URL that you're happy with. Don't worry if you're not, you can change your custom URL as many times as you want.

Changing Your Steam Custom URL Via the App

You can also change your Steam custom URL via the mobile app. You will obviously need the app downloaded onto your mobile or tablet to achieve this.

To change your URL via the app, follow these simple steps:

Tap the burger menu on the top-left of the app, and tap on your display name at the top of that menu.
Underneath your level, tap Edit Profile.
In the Custom URL field, type in your desired URL.
Scroll down to the bottom of your page and tap Save.

You should now have your new custom URL.
