WordPress tip: Adding links in your posts

I recommend doing this when adding links in your posts:

After you highlight your word/s that you want to turn into a link, click on “Target.”

Click the option “Open link in new window”.

That way people don’t navigate away from your page; rather, your page stays open while they’re on the other page.

Then, when they’re done, there’s a better chance they will continue migrating within your blog, rather than forgetting where they found link to begin with.

What do you think? Any other good tips?

    Yes, thanks! I will try to remember from now on because it’s actually pretty annoying when it navigates away from the page. I just did it with my new link, hopefully it worked!
