Link

Link is a connection between an element in a hypertext document, such as a word, phrase, symbol, or image, and a different element in the document or in another location, a webpage, file, or script.

The most distinctive feature of HTML is that documents can contain links to other documents. The user can follow links from page to page and in the process visit pages from all over the Internet.
