I am trying to have my store link on instagram in the website section, but instagram is counting it as spam. Even if i put it in my bio it counts as spam. I did some experimenting, and when i took of the '.myshopify' part and turned it into just 'epoch-watch.com' , it did not count as spam. 

Does anyone know how to remove my website from being spam, or does anyone know why '.myshopify' is considered spam? 

Thanks, any answers will helpThis is the error it showsThis is the error it shows

You're going to want to connect your domain to your store anyway for a more professional appearance, I would handle that now and solve both problems.
