Digital Accessibility Tip: Links in Outlook

A person at a desk typing on a laptop.

Hyperlinks allow users to quickly access other pages and know where they’re being redirected to. Use proper link formatting to make your links accessible to everyone.

Learn how to easily make accessible links in Outlook with MedTech’s five-minute tutorial.

Should link text be unique if there are multiple links in my email?

Yes. Multiple links with the same text but different destinations are confusing for assistive technology users. However, if you have several links that go to the same destination, use the same link text.
