Webpage markers and hyperlinks
Using Named Anchors (Markers)
Named Anchors or Markers are the links inside our webpage that allow the visitors of the webpage to click on them and navigate to another section inside the same webpage.
We can use markers to navigate into the pages when this is not so long.
If the webpage contents need a lot of space, it is better to create another small webpages.
Using Hyperlinks
Hyperlinks allow us to combine text, images linking our website to another internet webpages or to other documents located in a folder in the computer or to an email address.
You can recognize hyperlinks on the webpage, because they are underlined words. If you click on them, a little hand will show, so you can identify that they have a link to other places.
