Linking Pages is What Makes the World Wide Web Go 'round

When creating a website, chances are you want more than one page. Let's say you have a three-page website. Breaking away from some of the technical terminology, think of your website as a tropical ocean, each page as little islands, and your website visitors as little sailors.

Once a sailor finds your first island (page one), how is she going to reach the other islands? Naturally she needs a little boat to sail to the next island.

In the HTML world, these little boats are called hyperlinks. They connect little islands to each other (hyperlinks within a website) and big islands to other big islands (hyperlinks across multiple websites).
