Linking Post Tutorial

Got to visit again today the site of my “master” on blogging and she’s got a very valuable information on linking post.  She said that  “When you are offering another link within your blog, it is important to have that link open up in a new window.”  I have actually noticed this already with some of the blogs that I have frequented.  And this idea sounds great really because it keeps your reader/visitor/guest on your page longer.

I am going to try to do it and I hope it will work :-)… If not, then try again ha ha….as always!!!!  If you would like to check out the site of my master, then visit her at this site. (Once clicked, that link should open a new window).  And by the way, please do visit also my other site where I showcase my layouts… MyPhotoblog. (Here, the link replaces the blog itself)

In her tutorial, her instruction in doing this is  “You do that by using the target="_blank" function and Editing the  HTML in your post to add the TARGET BLANK code to make it work!

But since I am doing this post using the Windows Live Writer, I think I don’t have to do it that way.  When you use the hyperlink function, you are given two choices, that is, whether to open link in a new window or automatically link to the text.  So it makes it easier here to do this thing.

I am crossing my fingers now…let’s check it now if it works!!!!
