Make sure that your links follow best practices and apply these improvements to the Links feature page. Once the fixes are made, you can dismiss the Links Block issue.
Links Best Practices
Use descriptive link text
Avoid vague text like "Click here". Instead, use "Our Mission Statement."
Test links regularly
Check if all links are functional and lead to the intended pages.
Keep the description short and simple
If a link's text exceeds 100 characters, it is likely to overwhelm the user, making it hard to understand the link's destination quickly.
Avoid using text that start with "link to"
Starting the link text with "link to" is redundant since screen readers automatically announce the presence of a link.
