Having a great Instagram bio is very important. After all, it is the first thing that people see when they visit your profile. The problem is that Instagram only allows you to use 150 characters to describe yourself in your Instagram bio. You may feel that mere 150 characters are not enough for your bio.
Thankfully, Instagram also enables users to add links to their Instagram bio. It is a welcome compensation for the lack of the ability to use more than 150 characters in the Instagram bio. You can add any external link to give more information to your followers.
In this article, we will explain how you can add a link to your Instagram bio.
How to Put a Clickable Link on Instagram Bio
You can put a link on your Instagram bio with the help of either the Instagram app or the Instagram website. We have explained both procedures of adding a link to your bio.
Using Mobile App
This method will work both for using Android or iOS devices.
Step 1: Launch your Instagram app.
Step 2: Tap your profile icon in the bottom right corner of the screen to head into your profile section.
Step 3: Tap the Edit Profile option.
Step 4: Locate the website field and enter the link you wish to add to your Instagram bio. You can either manually write the website link or paste it after copying from some other source.
Step 5: Tap the tick mark in the top right corner if you are using an Android device. On the other hand, tap Done in the top right corner of the screen if you are using an iOS device.
Your website link will now appear on your profile right below your Instagram bio. If you are operating a public account, everybody can see your bio and thus tap the website link. But if your account is private, then only your followers can see your Instagram bio and the website link.
Using Web Browser (PC)
Step 1: Visit instagram.com using your computer’s browser and log into your account.
Step 2: Click your profile icon in the top-right corner of the interface. Then, select Settings.
Step 3: Locate the Website field and enter the link you wish to add to your bio.
Step 4: Scroll down to find the Submit option and click it.
You have successfully added the website link to your bio.
Can You Add Multiple Links to Your Instagram Bio?
Instagram only allows you to add a single link to your bio. However, you can use services like “linktree” which allows you to put multiple links.
