Reduces the chances of "broken links"

A full URL path is helpful if you migrate your site or if it is accessed from multiple locations (e.g., [syndication], RSS feeds).

When setting up links on your website, you need to be careful how you "code" them.

Incorrect implementation of URL structures results in the creation of a page that lands on a 404 error page.

You should use absolute URLs for external links because they provide a clear and complete address. It ensures that users and search engines can easily understand where the link leads.


By using absolute URLs for internal links, you avoid potential problems caused by relative truemoney database URLs, which could break when linking subdirectories or changing URL structures.

If a website's folder structure changes or content is moved to different directories, relative URLs can break if they rely on the old structure. Absolute URLs remain intact because they point directly to the resource, thus reducing broken links during updates or migrations.
