AllHyperlinks

It is currently considered better to hyperlink text on a Web site instead of putting the URL of the page that you're linking to.

Old way:

New way:

When hyperlinking text, make sure that it's obvious what the link will go to. If you are giving instructions on what to look for when the reader gets to the page, make sure it is apparent what to do.

Not clear: " At the bottom of this page is a list of [|five ways] in which you can work to fight back social oppression and raise social justice in your school." Does this mean that the reader should look at the bottom of the page that s/he is currently on? Or should the reader click on the link "five ways" and look at the bottom of that page? And if the reader is to go to the "five ways" link, whose page is this and why should I trust it?

Clearer: "At the bottom of the [|National Education Association's Webpage on social justice], there is a list of five strategies that you can use to work to fight back social oppression and raise social justice in your school."
