# Post your Kollekt link to Instagram Stories
> Share your Kollekt link in an Instagram Story. Takes about 30 seconds.
## Four steps to post your Story
### 1. Copy the link first
In Kollekt, tap the Share button at the top of Home, Direct Line, or Chat. Then tap **Copy link**.
The link needs to be on your clipboard because Instagram doesn't carry it over by itself.
### 2. Tap Share story
From the same Share Sheet, tap **Share story**. Instagram opens with your Kollekt card already placed as the Story background.
### 3. Add the Link sticker
Tap the **sticker icon** in the Instagram toolbar, choose the **Link** sticker, and paste the Kollekt link from your clipboard.
On some phones, the link disappears from your clipboard when you switch to Instagram. If that happens, go back to Kollekt, tap **Copy link** again, then paste.
### 4. Post the Story
Drag the link sticker where it fits best on the card, then tap **Your Story** to post.
## What to say on the Story
Add a line of text on top of the card so fans know why to tap. Specific is better than generic. "Tap through" is weaker than telling them what they'll find. A few that work:
* **"New track in the Direct Line → tap to hear it first."**
* **"Voice note about \[thing] on my Kollekt."**
* **"Everything I post before anywhere else → tap."**
* **"If you want the good stuff first, my space is here."**
* **"Behind the scenes from today → on Kollekt."**
The first time you post a Story about Kollekt, give fans a bit more context. What it is, and why you're inviting them. See [Announce Kollekt to your fans](/for-artists/bring-fans-in/announce-to-your-fans) for example captions.
## Tips
* **Post Stories when you have a reason.** "Hey, I'm on Kollekt now" is fine once. After that, post when you have something specific to share. A new Direct Line message, a subscriber-only post, a Chat moment.
* **Post when your followers are most active.** The link only lives for 24 hours, so drop it when the most people will see it.
* **Want a different look?** Swap in your own image before posting. The link sticker works with any Story background.
