Step 2: Get the URL of the Page You Want to Link To

go onto the internet and find the webpage that you want to make a link to. Then copy the URL from the bar at the top.

Step 3: Highlight the Text You Want to Add a Link To

click and drag over the text you want to add a link to

Step 4: Click on the Link Button

click on the link button. This should look like the earth with a chain in front of it. A thing saying 'link' should come up when you highlight it. This button will be right of the italic button

Step 5: Add the Link

When you press the link button a window should come up. Make sure the link type is URL and if the URL starts with www then make sure the protocol is http://. If your URL starts with somethingelse then you should be worried. Now paste the URL you got earlier into the box labelled 'URL'

Thanks for sharing. It was very helpful. One suggestion: if you use the word "hyperlink" in the title and/or keyword, you might draw more readers.
