Answer 1

First, you will need to create a reference to:
Microsoft Internet Controls
Microsoft HTML Object Library
In VBE, click Tools > References
Sub clickLink()
Dim ie As New InternetExplorer, Url$, doc As HTMLDocument
Url = "http://UrlToYourLink.com"
With ie
.navigate Url
Do While .Busy Or .readyState < READYSTATE_COMPLETE
DoEvents
Loop
doc = .document
.Visible = True
End With
Dim myBtn As Object
Set myBtn = doc.getElementsByClassName("button rounded")(0)
myBtn.Click
End Sub

Answer 2

The Internet control is used to browse the webpage and the HTML Objects are used to identify the username and password textboxes and submit the text using the control button.
Dim HTMLDoc As HTMLDocument
Dim oBrowser As InternetExplorer
Sub Login_2_Website()
Dim oHTML_Element As IHTMLElement
Dim sURL As String
On Error GoTo Err_Clear
sURL = "https://www.google.com/accounts/Login"
Set oBrowser = New InternetExplorer
oBrowser.Silent = True
oBrowser.timeout = 60
oBrowser.navigate sURL
oBrowser.Visible = True
Do
' Wait till the Browser is loaded
Loop Until oBrowser.readyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE
Set HTMLDoc = oBrowser.Document
HTMLDoc.all.Email.Value = "sample#vbadud.com"
HTMLDoc.all.passwd.Value = "*****"
For Each oHTML_Element In HTMLDoc.getElementsByTagName("input")
If oHTML_Element.Type = "submit" Then oHTML_Element.Click: Exit For
Next
' oBrowser.Refresh ' Refresh If Needed
Err_Clear:
If Err <> 0 Then
Debug.Assert Err = 0
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
End Sub
The program requires references to the following:
1 Microsoft Internet Controls
2. Microsoft HTML Object Library

Answer 3

Microsoft internet controls are a great way to do this, but if you aren't allowed to add new references, here is another way to go about web scraping.
This methode ain't as 'clean' as Microsoft internet controls and HTML object but it gets the job done.
Sub GoogleSearch()
Dim ie As Object
Dim objSearchBnt As Object
Dim objCollection As Object
Dim i As Integer
'initialize counter
i = 0
'Create InternetExplorer Object
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
ie.Visible = True
'navigate to the url
ie.navigate "Www.google.com"
'Statusbar shows in the buttom corner of excel
Application.StatusBar = "Loading, please wait..."
'Wait until page is ready
Do While ie.busy
Application.Wait DateAdd("s", 1, Now)
Loop
'Store all the elements with input tag
Set objCollection = ie.Document.getElementsByTagName("input")
'Go through all input elements
While i < objCollection.Length
'input search field
If objCollection(i).Name = "q" Then
objCollection(i).Value = "Hello World"
End If
'search button
If objCollection(i).Type = "submit" Then
Set objSearchBnt = objCollection(i)
End If
i = i + 1
Wend
objSearchBnt.Click
'Clean up
Set objSearchBnt = Nothing
Set objCollection = Nothing
Set ie = Nothing
'Give excel control over the status bar agian
Application.StatusBar = ""
End Sub
