# Improve accessibility by adding skip links

Skip links let website visitors bypass the blocks of content that are repeated on multiple web pages. For example, navigation links, heading graphics, and advertising frames. Visitors can skip navigation and jump straight to page content. Skip links also improve the experience for keyboard users.

To add a skip link:

1. In the Experience Editor, on the relevant page, click **Partial Designs**, and then click **Metadata**.
2. In the Toolbox, in the **Accessibility** section, click the Skip Link rendering and then drag it to the page, immediately after the body tag. 
3. In the **Select the Associated Content** dialog box, select a previously created skip link or create a new one.
4. To style the skip link, in the **Skip Link** dialog box, click **More**, and then click **Edit component properties content**.

5. In the **Control Properties** dialog box, you can assign a specific class to style the skip link.
6. To change the ID or title of the skip link:
    - In the Content Editor, go to *Tenant/Site/Data/Skip Links* and, in the **Data** section, change the **Content ID**  field and/or the **Title** field.
