Hi Friends,
In computing, a hyperlink, or simply a link, is a reference to data that the reader can follow by clicking or tapping. A hyperlink points to a whole document or to a specific element within a document. Hypertext is text with hyperlinks. The text that is linked from is called anchor text.

The tag to create a link is called <a>, which stands for anchor. While the word "anchor" might seem a little obscure when describing links, it has to do with the fact that you can use the <a> tag to identify a particular spot within a Web page—an anchor point. Granted, there are certainly better words out there that would make more sense, but we're stuck with anchor so just go with it! Within the <a> tag, you put the address of the page to link to in quotes after href=, like the following:

<a href="http://www.stalefishlabs.com/products.html">click here!</a>

A hyperlink is an icon, graphic, or text in a document that links to another file or object. The World Wide Web is comprised of hyperlinks linking trillions of pages and files to one another.
