Explanation
I think of link text is a "mini-contract."


The RKT philosophy is to create good, descriptive document titles, that uniquely and accurately describe the topic. Then the document titles are used as the link text.

How the RKT Tools Help
The RKT tools automatically insert HREF anchor links when a topic title is placed in backquotes, and check and validate links while indexing.
