Anchor links are a special type of hyperlinks, which allow users to jump to a specific part of a web page. Anchor links are sometimes referred to as jump links, page jumps or “jump to” links.

No matter what you call them, they can improve the user experience by making it easier to navigate to the necessary section of a long page.

Anchor links are, in essence, just like standard links, but instead of simply pointing to a different page, these links point to a specific section of page.

They can point to a section of the current page or to a specific page section on another page.
