Link Text and Adjacent Links

These issues are not easy to notice because while the URL's may be fine (not broken), the readable text must be unique and spaced adequately for accessibility.

Link Text and Adjacent Link Rules

  • Text for links must be unique and descriptive to the link content
    • Do not use generic labels such as "read more", "click here", etc.
  • Links to the same page with similar, identical, and or not identical text
    • May not be near each other or link to the same page
    • Best practice is to have only 1 of that unique link and text per page
  • Same rules go with links and link text within buttons.
  • If referring to image or page references, only refer to the URL once.
