Add a URL to a picture if your picture represents a web page or entire website. Companies, for example, often include website URLs inside product images so that consumers will know where to find out more about the product just by viewing the image. You can add URLs within the picture itself for offline viewing or as a mouseover or interactive link for Internet viewing.

Select the option within your graphic program to add text.

Choose a text color that stands out against the image background color. For a photograph taken at night with a dark background, for example, choose "white" as your text color.
Step 5
Type the URL into the text area. Adjust the size of the text so that it fills up most of the image background, but does not extend beyond the picture or into the main image details.

Save the image using with a new name, such as photoname-URL.jpg, so that you do not override the original unedited image.
