Most of us are familiar with hyperlinks in Microsoft Word. They’re those blue underlined words that, when clicked, take you to another website or a different document. But did you know that you can insert hyperlinks in PowerPoint presentations?
Just like Microsoft Word, PowerPoint offers the ability to insert hyperlinks into your presentation. Adding links is an easy way to make your slides more useful and keep your audience engaged. They let you point viewers to a source, a related file, or a webpage without leaving the slide deck. So, how do you insert a hyperlink in PowerPoint? Here are the exact steps you need to follow:
1. Select the text or object that you want to turn into a hyperlink.
2. Now, left-click with your mouse and then click “Hyperlink.”
3. In the “Insert Hyperlink” pops up, you can either type in the URL of the website you want to link to or a file on your PC.
4. Once you’ve got the URL or file selected, click “OK”, and your hyperlink will be inserted!
Conclusion
That’s all there is to it! Keep in mind that links can be attached to more than plain text; you can also apply them to images, shapes, and text boxes. So, get creative and see what you can come up with!
