    It’s all about links, right? How do I allow my visitors to select links that take them away from my site but force them to return when their done viewing that external content?
    thanks

  • Short answer: you can’t.

    Longer answer: When someone leaves your site, you can no longer control what they do, where they go or what they see. and why should you even try to? Would you like it if someone tried to control where you could go when you were using your own web browser on your own computer?

    If your site’s content is good, they’ll come back, So focus on creating quality content that will being people back instead of trying to take control of their computer.

    ok, I’m ok with that answer but just to explore this a little further. I setup a link to a microsite that was offered by a vendor for it’s dealers. It opens a new window with lots of links and content but I can’t navigate outside of the page. the only choice I have is to close the window. I had someone refer to this as a cul-de-sac site. I was asked to have all the links on this site work in the same manner.

    When you insert a link in your content editor, you have the option to open the links in a new window. Could that prove a helpful solution for you?
