You can do
Pldt<
to exchange the contents of the unnamed register with whatever you
are deleting (the text "Link" in your example). However, this is
really an exchange, not just a paste: once done, the register will
hold the just deleted text and not what it used to.
If that is not ok, you can yank the text in a register, say r, then
paste the contents of that register:
"rPldt<
To avoid repeating the above sequence, paste it into another register,
say s. Then, doing
@s
will replace whatever text up to < with the contents of the r
register. This is both succinct and flexible: r holds the text to
be pasted, s tells how to use it, and you have full control over each
one individually.
