External Links
- Links to cross-origin destinations are unsafe
- When you add a link that opens in a new tab, WordPress will automatically add the
rel="noopener"
attribute to that link. - The other page can access your
window
object with thewindow.opener
property. This may allow the other page to redirect your page to a malicious URL. - Adding
rel="noopener"
orrel="noreferrer"
to yourtarget="_blank"
links avoids these issues.
- When you add a link that opens in a new tab, WordPress will automatically add the
nofollow
attribute prevents your website from passing on SEO link juice to the linked website.- Search engines should ignore this link
