How to add link to Instagram story
When you use Instagram link stickers to include a link to your website in your Instagram Story, driving traffic to your website becomes much easier.
Instagram has for a long time restricted who has the ability to use hyperlinks in their Instagram Stories. However, by the end of 2021, it had removed all restrictions, enabling anybody to use them in their stories. You are no longer need to have a business or creator account, nor are you required to be verified, nor are you required to have over 10,000 followers.
Instagram announced in August 2021 that it will be discontinuing the swipe-up feature. Why? There were other wild speculations: perhaps Instagram has hidden intentions to move Stories vertically, similar to TikTok, rather than horizontally?
Regardless of the outcome, users may now include links in their Stories by adding a link sticker.
How to add a link to your Instagram Story
Instagram's "Link" sticker feature completely replaces the swipe-up tool, which was how users previously linked to external webpages from stories.The 'Link' sticker
A link can be added anywhere to a story. Here is how to do it.
1. Open the latest version of the Instagram mobile app.
2. Tap the Stories camera at the top of your screen.
3. Take a photo or video in the app or choose from your camera roll.
4. Head to the Instagram Stories sticker tray icon.
5. Scroll until you see the "Link" sticker. Select it.
6. You’ll be given the option to either enter or paste a URL.
7. You'll be able to reposition your link sticker by dragging or resizing it with a pinch.
8. You can also choose different colours.
9. Tap Done.
And that’s it!
When the sticker is shown, the website's name will be displayed. For instance, sharing this article would result in a bubble that reads "YOO.RS." As with many other stickers, you can move it across the screen by dragging it, resizing it by pinching in or out, and altering the style with a press. For the time being, each Story post can only contain one link.
