what am I doing wrong?

[tboneman]

I'm trying to get an article writing campaign going. I have several written. But when I insert the hypelink to my website in the author's bio, the link never stays.

I'm using a text editor, and writing in plain unvarnished text format. If I use, say, AngelWriter to write the article, it has a feature that allows me to insert a link by highlighting whatever text I want to use (click here or whatever), then entering the URL http-www-etc etc.

No problem so far. the link words are highlighted in blue, and testing shows the link works.

But when I go to an article directory site and copy/paste the article in the appropriate place, the link seems to disappear. No blue text. Same thing happens when I send the article as an attachment in an email

I'm obviously missing something. Is it possible the link is still there at the Article Directory site but it doesn't show it to me while I'm installing/editing the article?

Appreciate your suggestions. Thanks.

Are you putting it in the right format? <a href="http://www.yoursite.com">YOUR ANCHOR TEXT HERE</a>

Try to type in instead of copy and paste sometimes that works.
