I feel like I'm the only person who doesn't know how to use Url Tags...

Still not quite right... your outside brackets are backwards.

I know they are backwards, that the point. If they were forwards it would link to www.x.yyy in a hyperlink that said, "Text"

Why do you even have the tag at all, though? You can just put the bare URL in if you are trying to advertise something... or disable automatic parsing of URLs.
