Why This Matters
Renaming links transforms generic URLs into clear, descriptive text that tells viewers exactly where they're headed before they click. Instead of displaying "https://company.com/quarterly-report-2024" you can show "Q4 Financial Results." This creates cleaner, more professional presentations while building audience trust through transparency. Well-named links also improve accessibility for screen readers and make your slides easier to navigate during live presentations. When sharing slides as handouts, descriptive link names help recipients understand your references without needing to decipher cryptic URLs.
