A little extra information won’t hurt! True enough. But repetitive and useless information is enjoyed by none!
Some or maybe most (well, you can be honest!) of the users don’t know or you can say, are not sure where would they be redirected to when they click on a hyperlinked text. The cases of Click here to know more, View this, Click here, etc can be cited as perfect examples to such situations. This is when Title Attribute comes into the picture. Let us understand html title attributes!
Title attribute- Simplifying the ambiguity of the users!
Title attribute is one of the HTML coding sequences that are present all over the web. To put it simply, Title attribute is the HTML coding which gives/explains a little more information about the hyperlinked text. The text which gives the information is known as Link Title.
This text is displayed when the users place their mouse over the hyperlinked text, or the anchor text. So, link title is basically the advisory information on an element, which can be typically provided to the user in the form of a tool tip.
It is intended to be of much use to the blind people who use screen readers that are supposed to read out loud the link title so that they know which page they are directed to.
