Steps
Download Article
Open up your HTML file with your preferred text editor such as Notepad or TextEdit.
Add a HTML anchor just after the ending of the head tag. This is the start of the body code and thus is, by definition, the very top of the page.<a name="top"></a>

Place the following code where ever you want the link to appear. Ideally, near the end of each page or section.<a href="#top">Back to Top</a>
Community Q&A
- QuestionI find this difficult to understand. For example, "open up your HTML file." Where will it be?
Adam LeechCommunity AnswerIt really depends. Your HTML files are in your server's c-panel, they're also in your code editor on your website. - QuestionHow do I change the color of my text?
Community AnswerAdd this CSS to your Markup: a{ font-family: Times New Roman; color: Red; } - QuestionHow can I style this link in CSS?
KabulputCommunity Answer<a href = "#" style = "color: red"> Link Text Here</a>. Here I used inline CSS to change the link's text color from the default to red.
