When you surf the Internet, you’re always using links to get from one website to another. However, when you’re on a website, how can you tell if a link is an external or internal link? In this article, you’ll learn about external links, as well as how to add an external link icon on your WordPress site, so your own visitors will be able to know where they are going.
What is an external link?
An external link is a hyperlink on your website that directs the visitor to another website. This is the opposite of an internal link, which is when you link from one page of your website, to another page on the same site.
Both external links and internal links are good for your site, in terms of search engine optimization.
