How to Add Links to Instagram Stories

How to Add Links to Instagram Stories: Instagram recently improved the ability to add links to stories with a new link sticker option. Previously, this functionality was only available to select users, and links were shown as a swipe-up button at the bottom.

However, with the recent changes, users can now add a link to any part of the story on the screen. The swipe-up method of linking stories to Instagram was only available to users with more than 10,000+ followers. However, those restrictions have been removed and now all users on Instagram can post links to their stories using link stickers.
