Use Relative Paths/Links

relative path does not contain any protocol or machine information. Its path generally refers to content on the same machine as the current document. You can tell if a link is relative if the path isn't a full website address. (A full website address includes http://www.) See examples below:

 Relative Paths

  • index.html
  • /graphics/image.png
  • /help/articles/how-do-i-set-up-a-webpage.html

Absolute Paths

  • http://www.mysite.com
