Instagram is a popular social platform for sharing links about your work or some noteworthy articles and stories. Influencers and creators also often use links to ask their followers to access their work online, promote other brands, or advertise products. Earlier, Instagram provided a “swipe up” option to add links to Instagram Stories, but that was recently replaced by Instagram stickers. This new feature enables users to add links anywhere in Instagram Stories. It’s no longer limited to the bottom of the page.
How to add Instagram Stories link
Not all Instagram users can add links to their Instagram Stories. Only those who have more than 10,000 followers on the social media platform, have a verified account, or represent a well-known brand can add links to Instagram Stories. Instagram may be enforcing these caps to prevent misinformation and incorrect links from spreading on the platform. If you have access to the link button mentioned above, then you need to follow these simple steps to add the link to your Instagram story. To reiterate, users must exercise caution when sharing links with their audience. Check the link’s authenticity and make sure it’s not a phishing or spam link.
