first bloging

So there are “the one” and “the other” Links.

The “one” Link is when the Link is opened in the existing window at least if you don’t want your visitor to leave your Blog. This type of Link will close your Blog, open the Link and after some more clicks your premier visitor won’t find the way back to your blog –> one lost visitor !

The “other” Link is when the Link is opened in a new window.

Advantages:

• Your visitor can search for the desired information in the opened Link and can return to your Blog with no big effort.

Therefor make sure you used the right typ of Link!

Blog Post. There you simply have to decide where exactly your data schould be integratet.
