url link in widget area

I would like to add a url link into the widget footer area .........so that when a reader clicks on this link it takes them to this website in another tab ..how would I do this?

 

Hello,

Just go to Appearance > Widget
Drag "Text" widget and add the code given below there and drop it in first widget area.

Code:

<a href="ENTER YOUR URL HERE">ENTER YOUR TEXT HERE</a> 

Thanks & Regards

thats great ..thank you...but how do I get it to open in a new tab and not close down my website?

 

Hello,

Just add TARGET="_blank" code in your anchor tag.

For example:

Code:

<a TARGET="_blank"href="ENTER YOUR URL">YOUR TEXT</a> 

Thanks & Regards
