Link To Us

There are several ways you can add a link on your website to listings in the Seaport Homefinder website. Below are directions for adding either a Text Link or Banner Image Link .

Text Links

You may wish to add simple a text link by cutting and pasting this code into your own web page code:

<a href="http://www.lchomefinder.com">See our listings on the Seaport Homefinder.</a>

This is what it will look like: See our listings on the Seaport Homefinder.

This links to the front page of the Homefinder website.

If you would like to link to your specific page in the Homefinder website you would follow the same procedure as above but you would add the rest of the address for your specific page between the "  " marks.

Here is an example of what the code should look like:

<a href="http://www.lchomefinder.com/ausman.htm">See our listings on the Seaport Homefinder.</a>

The link results will look the same to your visitor but instead of taking them to the front page of the Homefinder website, this code will take them to the first page of your listings in the Homefinder. For this example, the link above would take the visitor to the first page of the Ausman Realty listings. Adding the /ausman.htm after the main address allows the visitor to go directly to those listings.

Banner Image Links

The Homefinder is offering two banner image links for linking to the Homefinder website. Directions for adding the image of your choice and code for linking the image are below.

1. To retrieve one of these images for your website, place your mouse pointer over the image that you want and right click with your mouse. A menu will appear and you will choose "Save as.." from the menu by left clicking on it with your mouse. Another window will appear that will allow you to save the image to your hard drive. You will want to make sure that you are aware of where you are saving it to on your drive. You may wish to make a new folder on your hard drive and choose that folder to save your image in.

2. After you have saved the image to your hard drive, you will open the software that you use to manage your website and open your website files. Open the page that you wish to put the image on.

3. Insert the image from your hard drive by using the feature that you normally use for adding images to your web pages. (As all HTML editors are different, this is as specific as we can get on this)

After you have the image saved on your web page, you will want to create a link from the image to the Homefinder website.

4. If you use an HTML editor that allows you to see the actual image as you work with your web page, you will probably just need to click on the Homefinder image banner to highlight it. Then choose the "Hyperlink" feature in your menu and type in the address http://www.lchomefinder.com for the front page of the Homefinder. You can also type in the path to your particular page within the Homefinder using the address that is listed for you under the Text Link directions above.

5. If you hard code all of your content for your web pages you can cut and paste the code below and make your modifications to it.

<a href="http://www.lchomefinder.com"><img border="0" src="images/homefindera.GIF" alt="See our listings on the Homefinder" width="100" height="147"></a>

Again, you can change the address to your specific page using the one listed for you under the Text Link directions above. The other code you must change is the path to the .GIF image. In the example above, the image is saved in the images folder within the website. If you save your images in a different folder within your website you will need to replace the word images with the name of the folder where the image is saved. If you have all of your images within the same main directory as your web pages then you just delete out the images/ in the path.
