My team and i would like the option to hyperlink images in our Social Posts. Visuals seem to get more engagement and if our audience could click on the image and get to a landing page, it would simplify the workflow. I like to lead users to landing pages when I release new videos, so if they could click on my video thumbnail image and be taken to the landing page immediately, that would be awesome!
I don't think it's possible to add links to images in social posts.
If you add a link in your post, Facebook will grab the OpenGraph image from the link URL and display it in your post, including the link, which will make it clickable.
But it's not possible to upload an image to a post and then wrap a link around it.
I really want this new feature to be available. Such a headache to schedule it in LinkedIn directly. Was using Sprout Social before and they had it as a standard feature.
We would really like this feature to be available. It would make it easier for our audience to click the CTA and hyperlinks we add to our social media posts and get traffic to our website.
Agree - we need this feature. Our social images have CTAs and it's a huge pain to go in and post them at the desired time instead of being able to schedule it out.
