Instagram is an American social networking application that the world is quite aware of.

Since social media became a known subject, it has been a common thing to use it as a platform to carry out or spread the news about our businesses.
Apart from the stated, another facility that the platform provides is sharing links of various websites, products, YouTube channels, etc., not only in Insta page bio but also in our stories.
So, today we are going to focus on how to add a link to our Instagram stories and who all are eligible to do that.

Share or Add a YouTube link to Instagram Story
According to reports, on average, a person spends about 28 minutes on Instagram daily. But what’s the benefit of it if one can’t use the time productively on the platform?
Well, you can if you know how to.
Instagram comes with a feature using which one can share multiple links in their stories, which can be easily accessed by others just with the help of a simple swipe up!
This feature can help people in spreading their businesses, spread out the news about their art pages, or about their YouTube channels.
But, the feature comes with a twist.
Eligibility to add YouTube Video link to Instagram Story
There is an eligibility criterion for accessing the said feature.
As users often ask this, let’s clear the doubt before we get into how we share the link.
Instagram indeed offers its users with the feature of sharing links in their stories, but only to those accounts which have at least 10k followers on their Instagram Account or if one has a verified account that comes with a blue tick.
All the users who want to add youtube links in Instagram story without being verified, they can’t add without follow the above process.
Until and unless a user passes either or both of the marks, Instagram doesn’t let them avail the discussed feature, no matter what.
And we should remember, this is also a recent development, as before this, only the verified accounts were able to use the swipe up and no one else.
So, for those who are wondering how to avail the feature, you can always apply to have your accounts verified. But remember, Instagram is still the jury.
Now, that all is said and done, let’s look into how to do the deed.
Happy spreading your business!
