    when you write a post...
    just use this code
    <a title="anything" href="http://www.siteyouwanttolink.com" target="_blank">something goes here</a>
    Code (markup):
    target=blank will open your link in new window

    If you prefer the visual post editor rather than raw code HTML, you might want to take a look at this screenshot tutorial on how to create hyperlinks in WordPress

    WordPress is blogging software. If you want to run your own blog, it is very useful.

    As for your question about hyperlinking:

    <a href="abc.blogspot.com" target="_blank">see here</a>

    Wordpress is a good CMS for creating blogs
    It feature an inbuilt WYSIWYG editor which can do this job easily

    @asawari_in: Do you have a blog already?
    WordPress is a free open source software to run a blog on your site. http://WordPress.org
    And if you don't have a site you can sign up for a free WordPress blog at http://WordPress.com

    Back in 2007/01, I wrote a post on my blog to help explain how to add a link using Blogger. Please see that post and give me any feedback - How to Make a Link (Emphasis on Blogger).

    Also, the code mentioned above -
    <a href="abc.blogspot.com" target="_blank">see here</a>
    Code (markup):
    - is slightly incorrect. The more correct version would be -
    <a href="[B]http://[/B]abc.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">see here</a>
    Code (markup):
    I hope that helps.
