You can look through the help tutorial videos with the link at the top of the forum. http://www.vodahost.com/vodatalk/hyperlinking-making-all-come-together/9315-linking-your-pages-together-creating-hyperlinks-text-images-etc.html

But if you have the site name of http://www.mysite.com Your about us page would be called http://www.mysite.com/about_us.html If using 2 words when naming your page, don’t forget to place a ( _ ) symbol between the words when linking to them.

A url can be broken down into elements. Each needs the following;
1 -http://www.
2 -your domain name
3 -your page or file name
4 -and the extension of the page or file (html, php, pdf, mp3, wmv etc..........)

So if your domain name was ( mywebsite) and the page name was (page1) and it was a regular web page it would appear like so;
http: //www.mywebsite.com/page1.html

If you were linking to a song ( mysong ) on your website it would look like this; http: //www.mywebsite.com/mysong.mp3

Hope that helps.

Tip- as you work its easy to get confused, moreso when you start adding pages. Write them down each time you create a page and check it off as you link to it. After a couple of times you'll have them memorized and the most recent appear in the drop down menu when you edit the NavBar.

If you join Vodahost you will get a free domain. Have a look at the link below for price's. But you will need an account with them. If you have a domain, you can point it at your account with vodahost or transfer it.
