[prvit]

Pretty sure that’s a common expression (in American English too) referring not to URLs but making contact with people.

“Why didn’t anyone bother to put me in touch” is how I’d interpret it.

While "to link up" is an idiom in American English, "to link <someone> up" is not. The phrase is intransitive -- even if the referent were a person, one would usually say "to link up with <someone>". Moreover, the phrase implies a casual social encounter, which wouldn't be appropriate here; a more formal introduction would be implied by a phrase like "get me in touch".
