    if you have a website structure like this:

    www. example. com / index.html
    ............................/ customers / first_customer.html

    From the first page (index.html) you can link to the second either absolute (www. example. com / customers / first_customer.html) or relative (/customers / first_customer.html).

    More info here.

    Absolute links refers to a complete or a full-qualified URL:
    "http://www.just-a-sample.com./Tutorials/page1.html"


    Relative links specifies the name of a certain file to be linked to (within the same directory or current document):
    "page1.html"
