    How do you make a word in your article be linked to other sites? When you click that word, it automatically goes to another website or article? Is there a certain HTML code or something?

    Also, will it help my hubs rank higher in google search engine? Or what will be the good effects of including this kind of links in my hubs? Thanks, everyone!

      You go into the edit mode on your text capsule, then you highlight the word or phrase you wish to become a link, and then you click the little chain icon, and copy/paste in the link you want.

      Jesus, you've got some impressive looking titles for your articles. Very interesting.

      Now, you should know it is generally frowned upon to link to other websites these days. It isn't against the rules, just frowned on some. I would think what you should be linking to is amazon.com products, so you could possibly make some sales. I'm assuming you've joined the amazon program.

        Thanks, Wesman Todd Shaw. I've never noticed that link button until now.

        Thanks, man. Yours too. I love music as well.

        Yeah, I joined the Amazon program. But haven't used the Amazon capsule. Should I add calculators from Amazon to my hubs about calculator techniques?

          No don't use amazon capsules. You can drop in amazon products as links, and that works better for everyone. The thing is, ad blockers on browsers can block out amazon capsules, but they can not block out hyperlinks.

    Don't reply to spam - you're giving them link juice!

      Oh, God. I don't know that, Ma'am Bev. That is why I was a little bit confused earlier. What is a link juice?

        Links from HubPages count as quality backlinks and thus more search engine traffic.

        As you've replied, you've included the link again. The mods have deleted the original but not your reply, so it stays. The best thing to do is report your own post so that they remove it.

        I've done it before and it happens all the time, so don't worry about it big_smile
