Custom URL


In order to make it easy for fans to find you on www.AustinOnlineMusic.com you have a custom URL that is easy to remember. Your custom URL is:

www.AustinOnlineMusic.com/TonyBarkerMusic

Here is the HTML code for your custom URL:
<a href="http://www.AustinOnlineMusic.com/TonyBarkerMusic" target="_blank">www.AustinOnlineMusic.com/TonyBarkerMusic</a>
Displaying the full website address will help people remember the URL and enter it without having to click on it from your website. This is most effectively used in conjunction with a graphic. If you can only use a hyperlinked text versus a hyperlinked graphic go with the text because search engines favor text.
You may also want to combine multiple links in one sentence and use some keywords. Here's a suggestion:
<a href="http://www.AustinOnlineMusic.com/artist.asp?aID=39" target="_blank">Share Tony Barker's music</a> with others on <a href="http://www.AustinOnlineMusic.com/" target="_blank">BlogYourMusic.com</a>.

These hyperlinks seem pretty long so here's a description of the different components and why they are important:
  • target="_blank" opens a new web browser window when the link is clicked. This keeps your web page open while the person visits the Austin Online Music page. This isn't necessary when linking to one of your SecureSongs.
  • img src directs the web browser to the directory where the image is located.
  • a href tells the web browser to expect a hyperlink to another web page.
  • putting the / after the hyperlink URL helps the web page load quicker.
  • text loads quicker than images (especially large ones) on a web page so defining the height and width of the image sets the alignment of the text relative to the image while the image is still loading.
  • the alt tag helps your search engine placement and helps people navigate who use a web browser that does not display graphics.
