Add hyperlink to fotter section

Hi –

In the footer.php file in my child theme, I’ve updated the “FOLLOW ME” box in <section id=”bsocials”> to have the name of another website.

I’d like to hyperlink the box for $socialtext so that QWKDOG has a link. Any recommendations for that? Thanks!

<?php
$socialtext = get_theme_mod(‘rokophotolite_social_text’, __( ‘QWKDOG’, ‘rokophotolite’ ));
$sociallabel = get_theme_mod(‘rokophotolite_social_label’, __( ‘QwkDog Design | QwkDog.com’, ‘rokophotolite’ ));
if(!empty($sociallabel)) {
echo ‘<p> ‘.$sociallabel.’ </p>’;
}
if(!empty($socialtext)) {
echo ‘<p> >> <span class=”follow”> ‘.$socialtext.’ </span> << </p>’;
}
?>
