Before
If you have ever wanted to link to something great that you have found on the web you have to go through a lot of hassle to do it. Copy the text part, copy the webpage address, then start pasting everything into the new link you are formatting/creating. Once in a while is not bad but it can be frustrating if you have to do that a lot every day while writing your blog or articles. What if you could super simplify the entire process and save valuable time throughout the day?
After
Once you have installed the extension you are ready to go. For our first example we decided to copy the title of this article by highlighting the text, right clicking, and selecting ”Copy as HTML Link”.
Note: This does not work for images.
Followed by pasting into Notepad. There is the article title and webpage link already fixed into a pre-formatted link setup.
What if you are interested in a small section of the text (or a quote)? The extension works just as nicely for this too. Select, copy…
And paste. It really does not get much simpler than that for setting up links.
Conclusion
If you have a lot of links to set up each day for your writing, then the Copy as HTML Link extension will certainly make the process as pain-free as possible.
