Remember, the URL tells the browser where it can find a file — an HTML page, image, or program on a local or networked computer. You have 2 options when it comes to the selection of URLs: absolute URL and relative URL. The absolute URL shows the full path to the target: the protocol (HTTPS), the domain name, including the location within your website in your folder system.^[1]For example, it may look like this: <a href="https://www.example.com/form.php">.

Absolute URLs are more tedious to create as they require you to describe the entire route. However, their main advantage is preventing content duplication and increasing the chance that users won't miss updated content.
