How to Copy a Link onto Instagram: Quick Guide

Want to share a link on Instagram but don't know how? Don't worry, I've got you covered.

The best place to add a clickable link is your Instagram bio.

Here's how to do it:

  1. Open Instagram and go to your profile.
  2. Tap on 'Edit Profile'.
  3. Under 'Website', paste the link you want to share.
  4. Save the changes and boom, you're done!

If you have a business or creator account with over 10k followers, you can use the Swipe Up feature.

For those who don't, here's a workaround:

  1. Open Stories and take a photo or video.
  2. Tap on the chain link icon at the top.
  3. Add your link and publish the story.
  4. Keep directing your audience to 'Swipe Up' to access the link.

Direct Messages

Sometimes a direct approach works best.

  1. Open Instagram and go to Direct Messages.
  2. Start a new conversation or open an existing one.
  3. Paste the link directly in the message box and hit 'Send'.

Link in Instagram Post Description

Sadly, Instagram doesn't allow clickable links in post descriptions. But here's a nifty trick:

  1. Mention in your post caption: 'Link in Bio' or 'Check our Story for the link'.
  2. Guide your audience to the link either in your bio or stories.
