Tutorial 26: The Care and Feeding of Hyperlinks, Part II
Summary
Informational links should be used when something that can be
linked to is mentioned in a document. If you wish to link to something
else, you should make a separate mention of that resource. Omitting
useful links or adding useless ones in order to steer readers is
always bad practice. If you wish to avoid reader seepage due to
excessive links, put non-essential links at the end of your
documents. Proper linking can aid your site's usability as well as
helping search engines and other user agents process your pages to
your advantage..
