The motive behind make a post is that many of the people only understand what they have written and they have the ability to understand which we have written not by watching videos that's why for that people I am trying to help them that how can they a create the swipe up link on Instagram.
If you understand the videos then in YouTube give me see the videos is no problem but this post is for those to help those people by which the only understand the writing language not the telling language.
How to add links to stories in group?
Hey everyone you all know that in this I wanted to share you how to add a link to your Instagram story now this is often called a swipe up link so you swipe up and it will take you to a YouTube page for example or to your website you could use it to sell things or you could use it to get views on different posts or post.
I'll answer all your questions it's a little bit of a complicated setup mainly because there is an IG TV swipe up link which is nowhere and there is an old-school swipe up link that takes you to a YouTube post or a website or a blog and that's the one I'm gonna focus on in this post if it's your first time here I make easy-to-follow social media tech posts every single day of the week.
So let's go through the process I hope you know how to get this swipe up link so what you want to do is let you just jump into Instagram story here and you want to go ahead and take a picture now when you take a picture there's a couple of things that could happen you could get that link icon on top.
And there's couple things that link icon could do so you may go ahead and press it you get a link to ig TV post so this is kind of newer but it's gonna you may put a post from IG TV this is not what I want
I want to swipe up link so I'm gonna press down here if you don't see the link icon most likely it means you don't have that I GTV accounts so to get that all you would have to do is create an IG TV channel and upload one post I have a link in the description for that post the second type of swipe up link not the one that sends you to IG TV requires couple of things that you may not have yet you need two things to get to swipe up link one is you need to have the business accounts and the second one is you need to have 10,000 followers I'm in the process of making a very complete post on how to get to 10,000 followers so you could get this option and I'll leave that in the description as soon as it's ready so in this case I have the 10,000 followers but I don't have the business account so I need to go to the settings menu so on top the three lines I'm gonna press that and go to settings on the bottom and I need to scroll and switch to business profile so go ahead Press that
Just gonna press Continue here and it's gonna ask me to link this to a Facebook page so I have to link this to a Facebook page here or I could just press skip on the bottom press next it's gonna ask for my contact information I'm gonna press done.
Here now this has converted my page into a business page so I'm gonna press go to profile here now that I have a business page let's go to Instagram story here you want to gonna just take another picture and now I have the link option on top.
I'm gonna press it and if you don't see the option for URL here you just have to do one thing you have to give it a couple minutes and we start the apps so as long as you have 10,000 followers and a business accounts you will see a URL link here so I'm gonna go back to my Instagram story one more time and I'm gonna go ahead and take another picture and then I should see the link icon as usual on top.
If I press it now I have two different options so I have the IG TV post link and you get this by basically having an IG TV account on how to do exactly this so for IG TV post link swipe up link press that one but the second one and what I wanted to show you on this post is the URL link so if I press that I could literally type in any website blog post.
I want so I could just literally send people to youtube.com I just type in that URL press done and now I'm gonna go ahead and share this to my story so I'm gonna say your story here on the bottom plus sign.
