How to add a “Email me” Link

On this article I will explain the way of adding your email address to your website as a link. First of all I want to touch the fact that people just write their email as text on there website like:

You can contact me at admin@website-name.com

I find these what so called “contact” ways so lame. They look very eye distracting. Instead of these you can have a “Contact” or “Email me” link on your website that would just open Outlook automatically to send a email to you.

You can do these by just adding the following simple link to your website. It is just like adding a normal hyperlink but instead of http:// on the link placement you add mailto: just like on the following example.
