    For a HTML signature: 
    <a href="linked_url_including_http://">My LinkedIn Profile</a>

    That should do it

    You can only use HTML code if your sending emails in HTML format. Plain text emails cannot hold hyperlinks. Not all email clients support HTML email however most do.
    You would add the code in the Thunderbird signature panel, and see if it renders into a link. If it shows the <a href=""> code in the email you are sending emails as plain text
