How To Add Link To Instagram Story 2022. The Link Sticker function on Instagram allows you to add links to your Instagram Stories, and it’s free to use.
Verified Instagram accounts have had the option to add links to Instagram Stories for a few years now, and they can be accessed with a simple swipe. It’s a useful feature for influencers, businesses, creatives, and pretty about anyone who wants to offer online material via Stories without having to refer people to their Instagram profile link, which was a major drawback for many.
With the advent of Link Stickers on Instagram Stories, all of that has changed.
Instagram has rolled out the Link Sticker feature to users all across the world as part of an ongoing slew of improvements and features to the app.
Links within Instagram Stories will appear as an on-screen sticker that viewers can tap to access, rather than swiping up, as they did previously. This is likely in an effort to be more clear about what you’re clicking on.
How To Include A Link In An Instagram Story
So, how do you include a link in your Instagram Story? It’s accessible via a sticker, just like most other interactive features within Instagram’s Stories feature. If you’re unsure, follow these steps:
- Make sure you have the most recent version of the Instagram app on your iOS or Android device.
- To create/upload an Instagram Story, swipe right from the main Instagram stream.
- From the navigation bar, select the Sticker tool.
- The Link sticker should be tapped.
- Tap Done after you’ve added the website you want to link to.
- Place the sticker in the proper location on your Story.
- To post your new Story, tap either ‘Your Story’ or ‘Close Friends.’
That concludes our discussion. Your link will now appear as a tapable link within your Instagram Story.
It’s also worth noting that, as with other Instagram Stickers, you can tap the sticker while editing it to see the many colour options. Hey, we have to make sure it matches the poster’s look, right?
Instagram has recently opened up access to Collabs, a feature that allows many users to share the same post, likes, and comment threads, which was previously only available to Influencers. For those that are interested, we go over how to post a Collab on Instagram separately.
