Post subject: How to make my links
|
|
|
I've never considered this before but someone mentioned to me that it does make a difference.
When putting links in my HTML how should I be doing it...as a literal link to the page withing my site...
i.e. <a href="my-page.html">
or should I be making a link to the site then the page...
i.e. <a href="http://www.mysite.com/my-page.html">
Since I'm not linking out of my own site...I never really thought it made a difference, But possibly the SE's like to see the FULL URL and link page in the A HREF tag?
Any insights on this one? |

There's no difference, the search engines view them as being the same page. For simplicity I just use <a href="my-page.html">
However, the one exception is when linking internally to your home page, dont link to your index.html page, use the full URL (www.domain.com), if thats the standard link URL you use for inbound links. |
