How To Create A Link

1. Find the site, article, or other internet location that you want to link to. I went to the Star's homepage and found an article about the loonie falling two cents against the American Dollar.

2. When I click the Star's link to read the article by itself, this is what my browser's address bar looks like.


3. I copied the link from the address bar, and then, in the site's Blogspot (where we all post articles in), selected the text that I wanted to link.

4. With that text selected, I click the "link" button in Blogspot's toolbar. It's the one with a little globe that has a link chain on it:

5. Then I pasted the URL into the pop-up window that came up.

And if you click okay, you too can have lovely links like this one:

According to the Star, the loonie fell two cents against the American dollar today.

If you move your mouse over that link and look in your browser's status bar (the bar along the bottom), you'll see that it reads: http://www.thestar.com/Business/article/585291. And if you click it you'll see the exact article I wanted you to.
