You should try the hypperref package.

It allows to embed hyperlinks.

You can find documentation here http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Hyperlinks but there are essentially two important commands

\\href{url}{text} makes text clickable and creates a link to url .

\\url={url} inserts a clickable url

Here is an example use:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
You can have a look at \href{http://my.site.com}{my site} or contact me on 
\url{https://www.linkedin.com/my-profile}. 
\end{document}

and the output

Link appearance can be customized.
