A hyperlink, often just called a "link," is a piece of text or an image that you can click on to take you to another webpage, document, or a specific part of a webpage. Hyperlinks are usually highlighted in a different color (often blue) and may be underlined to show they are clickable.

🌟Tip: When creating your hyperlinks in an email or in a report, check the box "Open in a new tab" to have the link open a new webpage instead of opening the link in the window they're already in!🌟


Why Use a Hyperlink?

  • Easy Navigation: Hyperlinks help users move quickly from one page to another without needing to type a web address. This makes browsing the internet faster and more efficient.
    ​

  • Connects Information: They connect related information, allowing you to link to additional resources, references, or detailed explanations without cluttering your page with too much text.
    ​

  • Improves User Experience: By providing links to other relevant content, you can improve the overall experience for your clients and agents. They can find more information easily.
