Adding a link to my blog post
-
I’m having trouble adding a link to my blog post, it’s so frustrating! Please show me the way

Here’s a support page with plenty of screenshots and instructions: https://en.support.wordpress.com/links/
You’ll be looking at the 2 methods underneath “Creating Links in the Visual Editor”, i.e. Method One: Copy and Paste and Method Two: The Link Button.

May I please add to this thread.
For embedding links in post and pages this is the general link model:
<a href="URL HERE">Highlighted anchor text here</a>This is the visual result – it’s not actually linked here in the forum.
Highlighted anchor text here1. In the Visual editor type the relevant descriptive anchor text you want to link to first. Note that “click here” is not a good choice, relevant anchor text matters. ;)

3. Next click the chain icon in the editor and proceed to create the link.
