How to Use Links
In HTML you can use the <a> tag to create a link. For example you can write <a href="https://www.freecodecamp.org/">freeCodeCamp</a> to create a link to freeCodeCamp's website.
Links are found in nearly all web pages. Links allow users to click their way from page to page.
HTML links are hyperlinks. You can click on a link and jump to another document.
When you move the mouse over a link, the mouse arrow will turn into a little hand.
Note: A link does not have to be text. It can be an image or any other HTML element.
In HTML, links are defined with the tag:
<a href="url">link text</a>
Example
<a href="https://www.freecodecamp.org/">Visit our site for tutorials</a>
The href attribute specifies the destination address (https://www.freecodecamp.org) of the link.
The link text is the visible part (Visit our site for tutorials).
Clicking on the link text will send you to the specified address.
