A link can be absolute or relative. An absolute link shows the full URL of the page being linked, whereas a relative link only shows the part after the domain.
Example of an absolute link: Click here
Example of a relative link: Click here
Whilst both versions of the link will work, due to potential issues with canonicalisation, it’s generally best to use absolute links rather than relative links where possible.
