What is a link?
URL, http://, hyperlink, link..all these terms refer to the web address of any given webpage. For example the url of WI is: http://www.webkinzinsider.com

How do I get my link?
Go to the webpage you want to direct people to..at the top of the page in the "address bar" you will see the address link:

How to Copy/Paste your link?
Rather than having to type out the whole address link..simply copy and paste it. With your mouse "highlight" over the full address. Below is what it should look like "highlighted"

While it is still highlighted with your mouse "right click" on it and choose "Copy"

Now you are ready to click on that lil "earth icon"

Once you click on that lil "earth" icon you get that popup box pictured below that will ask you to enter your "link", just "right click" in the URL: bar and select "Paste". It will auto enter your link address!

This is a test. I put my http for my GE in my signature. I want to see if it is there.

Nope, not there! Back to the drawingboard!
