    Optionally, yes. You can set your Facebook profile to stop search engines from crawling your profile:

    Alternatively, your friend may be using a made-up name or an alias on their Facebook profile. Have you tried searching for an alias they might be using too?

    You could also try asking a mutual friend to send on her profile link. Bear in mind that their privacy settings may set so that it might not be visible publically.

    If you are not on FB and your friend has her privacy settings set to not publicly display her newsfeed then I doubt there is anyway to see the link (unless it's a link to a third party i.e. YouTube or some other website)
