Hi you can easily do it using GridView Template Field.

XML

<asp:TemplateField>
             <HeaderTemplate>
               Link
             </HeaderTemplate>
             <ItemTemplate>
                 <asp:LinkButton PostBackUrl='<%# Eval("Value" )%>' Text='<%# Eval("Value" )%>'
                       ID="lnk" runat="server" />
             </ItemTemplate>
         </asp:TemplateField>

Where value the link that you want to put. You can do the same from code behind as well.

protected void myGrid_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
            {
                Customer cust = e.Row.DataItem as Customer;
                if (!cust.ShowURL)
                {
                    LinkButton lnkWebURL = e.Row.FindControl("lnk") as LinkButton;
//                    Set lnkWebURL stugg
                }
            }
        }
