Publish to Web missing?
Your Administrator may have disabled the option to Publish to web in the Admin Portal. Contact the administrator in case this is what happens.
However, there are more secure ways to share a report / dashboard. Check out the following link:

Before posting on the web, keep the following warning in mind:"When you use Publish to web, the report or visual you publish can be viewed by anyone on the Internet. There is no authentication used when viewing these reports. Only use Publish to web with reports and data that the anyone on the Internet (unauthenticated members of the public) should be able to see. This includes detail level data that is aggregated in your reports. Before publishing this report, ensure you have the right to share the data and visualizations publicly. Do not publish confidential or proprietary information. If in doubt, check your organization's policies before publishing"

- Hi there
The other option that I have seen people use is to embed the reports into another website and then use a Power BI Azure SKU, and then handle the reporting in that manner.

Further to add onto this, I would suggest sharing externally via the App's.
This will give you more granular control and ensure that the people you share with externally can only see the reports. If you send the Publish to Web link externally, they can send that onto anyone who will also be able to view the data.
Basically, i'm trying to work out how i can share with external parties who don't use Power BI, so won't have a pro licence.
I understood the web option would allow this. Is there any other way? or would anyone require a licence?
Maybe even embedding in a separate website?
