A link is a word, group of words, or image that you can click on to go to a new page or a new section within the current page. There are a couple of ways to add links to your posts or pages. You can use either the Visual editor or the Text editor, as described below.

- Title (Optional): Title of the link when a visitor hovers over it (a small tooltip will appear with the title)
- Open Link in a New Window/Tab: If this box is checked clicking on your link will open up a new window/tab.
