    Inbound links are links found on other websites that link back to your website. These links are called inbound links due to the fact that they bring 'in' visitors to your website from an external source.

    Do you mean an 'internal link', from one page to another in your site?

    Whether a link is inbound (or external) as beinghappy4ever mentioned, or an internal link (as astroman mentioned), the HTML tag you use is called an anchor tag. Most HTML tags surround the text with a start tag in "angle brackets" (really the less than and greater than signs) and an end tag (which has a slash "/") after the less than sign (or angle bracket). Start tags can also have attributes and values, which are keywords followed by an equals sign and then a value. The anchor tag "HREF" attribute is where you code the link url.

    It looks like this:

    <A HREF="url">Linking text</A>

    where "url" could be "http://yourdomainname.com" or "http://youdomainname.com/recommends/yourpage.html" or even something such as "yourpage.html"

    The last example that omits the "http://" from the url is an internal link.

    Most SEO experts recommend that "linking text" should be a relevant keyword for your site and/or particular page.

    www.w3schools.com has an excellent reference and tutorial on HTML.
