Personally, coming up with links that don't end in click here at the end of
an article or section is something I find really difficult...

The whole Find out more about ... at the bottom of each page looks too
predictable.

Subject: [WSG] links with same names


One problem I come across regularly is the issue of not giving multiple
links the same names. Let's say I have got a list of dynamically
created news items, each one of them having a summary and a link
to "read more". Obviously this is inaccessible: 10 links all
saying "read more" is not terribly helpful to anybody. But I would love
to know how people solve this problem?

Personally, I sometimes make the title of the news item the actual
link, but I feel this is not user-friendly enough.

Another option is to make the "read me" link unique by including the
title of the news item in it (e.g. "Read more about the new
Benchmarking for Educational Effectiveness Program"). The length of
this link shows for itself that it is not the best solution either.

Has anybody come up with better ways of solving this problem?
