 - Make sure to add horizontal rules, `---`, to separate sections in your texts. This creates a more pleasant layout.
 - You can clean unnecessary folders and files from the original Ed package before publishing your site. This will help you reduce overhead. For example, you can erase this page, the sample texts and the `syntax.css` file (used for styling code).
 - Consider providing tips for your readers on how to make their font bigger or smaller by taking advantage of <kbd>Command</kbd> <kbd>+</kbd> and <kbd>Command</kbd> <kbd>-</kbd>; or to leverage the power of Google's [site search operator](https://moz.com/blog/25-killer-combos-for-googles-site-operator) to search within your site. Part of the philosophy behind Ed is to avoid duplicating features that are already easily available in most web ecosystems. 
-- If you want to allow annotations on your site, consider providing a `via.hypothes.is` link. Our sample site can be annotated, for example, using the following link: `https://via.hypothes.is/http://elotroalex.github.io/ed/`.
+- If you want to allow annotations on your site, consider providing a `via.hypothes.is` link. Our sample site can be annotated, for example, using the following link: `https://via.hypothes.is/http://elotroalex.github.io/ed/`, which readers can access on the sidebar. To allow annotations on your site you can simply replace our URL with yours. Make sure to visit [hypothes.is](https://hypothes.is/) to learn more.
 - Ed includes RDF metadata in the headers that makes it easier for users of Zotero to grab bibliographic information for the site and individual texts. The RDF functionality is not enough to generate a full proper citation. Consider providing proper citation information in your about page or homepage.
 - Make sure to deepen your knowledge of the building blocks of Ed: Jekyll, YAML and Liquid. A great list of resources can be found in the blog "[Jekyll for Web Designers](http://jameswillweb.github.io/jekyll-for-designers/resources.html)".
