How to make links in your blog

Knowing how to arrange your links in your blog is an important part of blogging and one of the very basic things you will need to know

Hyperlinks can be text or image links

Starting with text links

Links are enclosed within the
<a> </a>
anchor tags

The start of your link is
<a href=

Followed by the url you want to link to enclosed in “quotations” , for this example I will use blogger.com, example:

<a href="www.blogger.com"

Next you want to add the visible text of your link, this could be the name of the site you are linking to or simply “click here”, you would add it like this:


<a href= "www.blogger.com">Blogger<

Finally you need to close your tag like this:


<a href= "www.blogger.com">Blogger</a>

So, if you want to link to another page the code would be:


<a href="www.blogger.com">Blogger</a>

And if you want to make that link open in a new window the code would be:


<a href="www.blogger.com" target= "blank">Blogger</a>

Later I will post how to make image links for your blog
