To Click or Not to Click?

A web address (also known as a URL) tells you where a resource is located online. But did you also know that it includes important information about a website’s security and authenticity at a glance—if you know what to look out for.Because web addresses may be long, complex-looking, and not very pretty, they’re often hidden. Maybe they’re disguised within hyperlinked texts or previews. This can make it difficult to see exactly which address you’re going to, and as a result you put your trust in the person who created the resource or sent you the link.When you see a link, do you automatically click on it? Next time, take a moment to examine the web address closely and you might notice some clues.
