SENDING INSTAGRAM LINKS ON THE DESKTOP
Copying a URL from the desktop version of Instagram is much easier than from within the mobile app. The reason is that the URL is clearly visible in the browser's address bar. Simply navigate to the profile or post you want to share, then copy a URL you see in the address bar and paste it wherever you want.
You can do this for all posts and profiles, regardless of whether they are private or not. Note, however, that the person you send the URL to will not be able to see the profile or any of its content if it is set to private.

ADDING LINKS TO POST AND STORIES
Many users would also appreciate being able to link to pages other than their Instagram posts. Unfortunately, this is not possible. You can copy a link to your post description, but it won't be clickable.
The only way to include a clickable link in your post is to run a paid promotion. For this, you will need a business account. It will allow you to add CTA (Call to Action) buttons and links to your sponsored posts.
As for Stories, things are a lot simpler (and less expensive), but only if you have a verified account or at least 10.000 followers. In this case, you can add links to your Story in just a few steps:
- When taking a photo, tap the link icon at the top of the screen.
- Tap the + URL button.
- Paste the link you want to add.
When you use a link in your Story, everyone who sees the Story will have the “See More” option to open the link by swiping up.
LINK COPIED AND SENT
