I want my site to stay open when my visitors click on links but I am not sure how to do this. Can someone explain? Is it difficult? Thanks.

    To make hyperlink open in new tab or window just add target="_blank" to the hyperlink. Most editors have the option to set the target when you're creating the link on the page...if not, just add that code to your HMTL for that link, example:

    Code:
    <a href="http://google.com" target="_blank">Search Here</a>

    I would recommend against doing this. It creates a counter-intuitive browsing experience, and may actually have the opposite effect of what you want. By opening a new window you take away the 'back' button on the browser, and less experienced browsers may not realize that your site is still open in another (hidden) window and won't know how to get back to your site.

    But if you want to do it anyway, simply add target="_blank" in your link code as jim suggested.
