In the admincp, go to vBulletin CMS > Widgets, and press the "Create New Widget" button at the bottom. Select "Static HTML" as the type, and fill in the other fields. After saving it, find it in the list of widgets and click the "Configure" link, and you can enter whatever html you want.

THANKS KH. I've done that but didn't work for me. link could not be clicked. I just want to create widget where i can put the web address (link) in there and users can click on it. is that possible without putting HTML Code in?

nevermind...duh!! i figured it out however, the links are side by side instead of under each other how do i fix that?

It needs to to be html, so you probably want
<a href="www.somelink.com">Link Text</a><br>

The <br> will put them each on a new line.
