Tech Tip: External Links
July 15, 2009
If you're tired of linking to external websites and the visitor leaving your site completely, there is an easy fix.
Click into the HTML coding and find your website coding. Behind the URL add this text, target="_blank".
To demonstrate, here is a link to one of my funnier posts, it will open in a new window.

hey wow thanks for this great tip! your blog is great I love your sense of humor! found you from pdubs site!
PW is gonna make you famous, girl! I know this doesn't have to do with your post, but I was asking my daughter if she knew why on some blogs, the things that are supposed to run down the side either stay at the top or go to the bottom. She didn't know. With your page, I have to scroll down down down to get to your posts. On my daughters, all the links and stuff go all the way to the bottom. Just wondered if you knew. Thanks, your best friend, Sabra in North Carolina
Sabra,
If you're using Explorer 6 it's time to update to version 7 to view my site correctly. Here is the link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloadS/details.aspx?familyid=9AE91EBE-3385-447C-8A30-081805B2F90B&displaylang=en
Good luck!

I LOVE this!! Thank you so much! I'm definitely going to share this tip with my readers and I'll be sure to link to you! (in a separate window of course ;))
I wish I were as smart as you. I was so excited when I read your post, but I am still too clueless to figure it out! Thanks so much for leaving such a great tip though. Do you know an easy way to number your comments? Thanks again.
Really good tips!
Clueless,
I did a search and this person outlined how to number your comments in blogger.

If it's confusing, let me know and I'll consider breaking it down into easy talk in a future post.
Any other questions?
