Hi, list.
This is something that has be bugging me for a long time. In my work for a SEO
blogging outfit, I have to annotate my articles with links. I have never
figured out how to make those links embed smoothly into my articles, so that
they merge with the text.
Here is an example of what I am talking about. Suppose I wanted to cite
“google.com,” as a link. Suppose I wanted my sentence to read, “according to
the google website.” What I see, when I read others’ blog entries, is the
words, “The Google website,” in bold, and with a VoiceOver announcement that
they are a link. I cannot reproduce this behavior.
I am using Pages to write my articles, and Google Docs to share them with my
boss. I know how to include a link using Pages, When I include the link, its
raw form, I.E. “http:// blah blah blah” appears. My chosen text, “The google ;
website,” can follow the raw link, but I cannot get rid of the hypertext, and
have my chosen text appear in bold the way I see it on the blogging site.
I have tried everything to make this happen. I have tried using HTML code, I.E.
“<a href= …” and that doesn’t work. I’ve tried pasting my link in and then
writing my alternative text in, that doesn’t work. Can someone please tell me
how this is accomplished, so that my links are given the alt text which matches
the structure of my article?
Sorry this is so long, but I wanted to clearly outline my quandary.
Thanks.
