Using Links
Link Text
-
Links should stand out through use of underlined text and distinctive color.
-
The text for links should be descriptive of the destination, not a plain Url or "click here".
-
Screen readers announce links. Do not use "link to.." or other redundant language in the description.
Link Destinations
-
Review links on a frequent basis to ensure they aren't broken.
-
When possible, make sure links go to webpages and documents that follow accessibility guidelines.
