What Is an Instagram Link?

An Instagram link is a URL that points directly to an Instagram profile. The standard format is https://www.instagram.com/username. When someone clicks the link, it opens the profile in the Instagram app (if installed) or in a web browser. It's the easiest way to direct people to your Instagram account from any platform.

How to Create an Instagram Link

Enter your Instagram username in the generator above (without the @ symbol) and click Generate. You'll get a direct link to your Instagram profile that you can share anywhere. Your username is the handle shown on your profile — you can find or change it in the Instagram app under Settings → Edit Profile.

Where to Use Your Instagram Link

• Website — add a "Follow on Instagram" button to drive followers from your site. Learn more about using Instagram for business chat.
• Email signature — include the link with an Instagram icon so contacts can easily find your profile.
• Business card — pair the link with a QR code so people can scan and follow you instantly.
• Other social profiles — add your Instagram link to your TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, or LinkedIn bio for cross-promotion.
• Print & packaging — use a QR code on flyers, posters, or product packaging to grow your following offline.

Instagram Link Not Working?

If your Instagram link isn't opening the right profile, check these common causes:

• Typo in username — Instagram usernames are case-insensitive but must match exactly. Double-check for extra characters or spaces.
• Account is private — the link will still work, but visitors will see a limited profile and need to request to follow you.
• Account deactivated or banned — if the account has been removed, the link will show an error page.
• App not installed — on mobile, the link may open in a browser instead of the Instagram app. Users can usually tap "Open in app" to switch.
