How to create a hyperlink in HTML?

  • Share this:

To create a hyperlink in HTML, you can use the `<a>` element. The `<a>` element stands for "anchor" and is used to create a hyperlink to another webpage or a specific location on the same webpage.

To create a hyperlink to another webpage, you can use the `href` attribute to specify the URL of the target webpage. For example, the following HTML code creates a hyperlink to the StorialTech website:

<a href="https://storialtech.com">StorialTech</a>

To create a hyperlink to a specific location on the same webpage, you can use the `id` attribute on the target element and then use the `#` symbol followed by the value of the `id` attribute in the `href` attribute of the `<a>` element. For example, the following HTML code creates a hyperlink to a heading on the same webpage:

<h2 id="section1">Section 1</h2>

<p>
  <a href="#section1">Go to Section 1</a>
</p>

You can also use the `title` attribute to provide a tooltip that appears when the mouse hovers over the hyperlink. The `title` attribute can be used to provide additional information about the target of the hyperlink.

<a href="https://www.storialtech.com/programming" title="Programming Platform by StorialTech">Programming Platform</a>

Keep in mind that the text or content within the `<a>` element is what will be displayed on the webpage as a clickable hyperlink. You can use any valid HTML content within the `<a>` element, such as text, images, or other elements.
