Thread: Help!

I have a couple of websites, I am useless when it comes to computers and you will probably laugh at my question. "How do I link other websites to my site and my site to other websites"?

I look forward to any help, advice, suggestions or observations that can be given

Keep Smiling

Hi kevin

Can't help you I'm afraid, I have the same question. Perhaps someone can point us in the direction of a video.

Its not easy to answer in a few lines !

But they are generally split into 2 sections

Incoming back links = links that come from other sites and link to your site !
Outgoing links = links from your site to an external website.

So might be a good idea to google incoming backlinks and outgoing backlinks, and do a bit of research. As there are lots and lots of information about these, probably be easier for you to search on Google and find something that fits your needs.

To put external links on your site you might well need to learn some basic html.

Hope this helps

I think you a referring to hyper links.....
They are done in your site coding....
My sites are WYSIWYG and the links are automatic with a couple of button clicks...

To add a link to another site and have it open in another window or browser tab, your html code will look like the following:
<a href=" address of site you want to link to including the http://" rel="no-follow' or target="_blank" >Some Text or name you wish to be clickable to take you to that site-known as anchor text</a>
This works in any site except forums where the code to be used ,is called BBcode, similar to code used in css files so that every page of a site looks basically the same.

So; clicking on a signature link that looks like words only ,will bring you to a site just as clicking the word

Myself and Bill are doing some stuff together at the moment.
