MyLinks.pk Favorites and Tags: The Complete Feature Guide

Two of the most powerful MyLinks.pk features explained in one place — Favorites for instant access to top links, and Tags for flexible cross-category organisation.

Favorites Explained

The Favorites feature is one of the simplest improvements you can make to your daily workflow. Every bookmark in MyLinks.pk has a ⭐ star button. Click it once and the bookmark joins your Favorites — a dedicated page accessible directly from the navigation bar that shows only your most important links.

Favorites bypass categories, search and filters entirely. They are your personal quick-launch dashboard for the links you open every day.

Tags Explained

Tags are flexible labels you can attach to any bookmark. Unlike categories — which are broad and mutually exclusive — a single bookmark can have multiple tags. A bookmark about building a Python web scraper might have tags: python, scraping, tutorial, tools.

This lets you find it by searching any of those four terms, even if you've forgotten the exact title or URL. Tags create cross-cutting discovery paths through your bookmark library.

Using Favorites and Tags Together

Here's a pattern that works well: use categories for broad organisation, tags for specific discoverability, and favorites for daily shortcuts.

Example: A design resource might live in your Design category, have tags figma, components, free, and also be starred as a Favorite because you use it every day. Each layer serves a different purpose.

Power User Tips

  • Keep favorites under 20. More than that and the shortcut value disappears. Be ruthless about what truly deserves a star.
  • Use tags for project names. Tag bookmarks with a project code or client name and you can pull up all related links instantly when you start a session.
  • Review tags monthly. Delete or merge tags that overlap. js and javascript and JS are the same thing — keep only one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are tags the same as categories?
No. Categories are mutually exclusive — a bookmark belongs to exactly one category. Tags are additive — a bookmark can have as many tags as you want. Categories organise; tags describe.
Can I search by tag?
Yes. The search bar in MyLinks.pk searches across titles, URLs, notes and tags. Type a tag name and all bookmarks with that tag appear immediately.
