Linking - Where Can I Link?

Whether it is leagal to link to other pages have been discussed long and lively. As a website’s visibility and webbdesign is important, I can only mention that the links to the site is of great importance. A website has been upp untill now for many companies only a secondary advertisment. But as a matter of fact websites should be the primary advertisment since almost everything is happening over the internet. If you see an ad i the neewspaper – what will happen. Well actualy most people see the add and then go to google and search for the company name. Therefore, there should of course be in the site’s owner’s interest that he / she gets a lot of links to its website to increase its visibility on the Internet. The search engines that exist today such as Google, Yahoo and Bing and others based their so-called ratings on how many incomming links a website has. This should further strengthen interest to have many links to their site.
Now to the discussion if you can link to a website’s main page or a sub page of the webbsite. There are many different approaches here and the answer to the question is that there is no direct law designed to regulate this. However, there are quite a few court cases where the Court held that there is no crime to link to a website. If the website does not by technical means trying to prevent linking, it is therefore okay to link anywhere to another Web page both to the frontpage and to any subpages. The court has not only held that it is ok to link to a website but also to all the pages that are not treated as protected in the case of linking. If this was not ok, for example, search engines would have major problems because they link to millions of sites worldwide and crawls the content on these daily.
To raise a linkage which however is not permitted include so-called frame linking. This type of linking shows content from a webbdesign on its own website through a frame. This may look like the content is on your site and therefore violates the copyright laws.
To briefly summarize, we can conclude that it is permissible to link both to a frontpage and a subpage of a Web site as long as the site owner doesnt protected the content.
Discussions and case law have also arisen whether you may link to pages with illegal content. In Sweden, the court states that it is not a crime to link to another page with illegal content but it is offcourse not adviseable. This is however another interesting disussion weather linking to illeagal content will be legal in the future.
