I want to add links to other sites, how do I do that?

Links are extremely useful for helping people to navigate around your site.  Links also help people to access to other related websites that you link to, open a file or send an email. If you are going to have a successful website it is vitally important that you learn how to create links.

You can read how to here, or watch it on Yola.tv

Here's how to add links to your page:

1. Drag and drop a text widget onto your page - located in your "Content" tab in the sidebar on the right.

2. In the text widget type in the text that you want people to click on (this is your link text).

3. Highlight the link text.  In the illustration below the words "2010 Fifa World Cup" have been highlighted. Then click on the "Insert Link" button (it's the 10th button from the left in the text editing tool bar, and looks like the link in a chain).

4. A link editor dialog box will open up and you will be given four options: You can link to a page on your site; an external URL; an email address; or a file on your computer.

5. Click on "OK" and you will now have a link on your page.

To check that your link is working preview your page and then click on the link.
