Best Practice 2.4 – Provide clear and informative links (Baseline level)


Write descriptive link text to ensure the purpose of each link can be understood by the text alone, or by the link text and the context.

 

Before Rectification
A sample mobile application page with an ambiguous link.
In this example, the link "More" is ambiguous and does not really convey much meaning.
After Rectification
A sample mobile application page with a descriptive link.
Link labels should be more descriptive and self-explanatory as shown in the rectified version above
