Is this the proper HTML code for an anchor to link an article back to my site.

<a href="www.howtocrete.com"></a> that will be placed inside the authors box
if not please let me know the proper HTML code for an anchor text that will link an article back to my site.
Thanks,

You would need to put in the anchor text in the middle, so it's like the following:

<a href="www.howtocrete.com">ANCHOR TEXT GOES HERE</a>

The code is valid but you need to place link text too:

<a href="www.howtocrete.com">How to Crete</a>

yeah you guys also failed to mentioned that you need HTTP there!

<a href="http://www.whateversiteyouwant.com">anchor text here</a>

additionally it would be beneficial to put the title tag in if it is allowed:

<a href="http://www.whateversiteyouwant.com" title="anchor text here too">anchor text here</a>

<a href="www.howtocrete.com">ANCHOR TEXT GOES HERE</a>

That basically explains it

[Dannyboyonline]

This is the correct tag

<a href="http://www.whateversiteyouwant.com">anchor text here</a>

There are various other ways to improve the <A> tag, so I guess you should take a look at some online HTML tutorials.

Putting a title tag helps provide a short description of the linking site and is desirable.
