As you may have guessed, this article is in regards to linking and primarily which is the best *code* to use when doing so.
Should you have it open in the same window…effectively drawing people away from your site…or a new window…leaving the original one in tact for the reader to go back too.
This thought popped into my head while reading a post by Lynn Terry, entitled Stop Linking To Your Home Page!
