Links

Links are found in nearly all web pages. Links allow users to click their way around the internet. HTML links are called "hyperlinks." A hyperlink is a text, or an image, that, when clicked on, will move to another document.

Hyperlinks are defined with the <a> tag, using the syntax:

<a href="url">link text</a>

For example:

<a href="http://www.w3schools.com/html/">Visit our HTML tutorial</a>

URL stands for "Uniform Resource Locator" (or Universal Resource Locator), which is the address of a webpage.
