What the heck is

I know this question may seem pretty elementary for some, but for those of you who don’t know what is a link , I am going to answer the question I keep getting asked. There! If you know what a link is, then by all means share your thoughts. Don’t criticize. Help the people who don’t know out.  We all started somewhere. {End Rant}

A link is short for hyperlink. In layman’s terms, a hyperlink (or link) is a reference to a resource somewhere else on the internet. Links can point to anywhere you want them to: a picture, another website, a file, another area of the page, etc.  HTML (or Hyper Text Markup Language) is what is the language used to create most web pages and thus what’s used to create a link.
