# Colored links

Colored links with hover states

You can use the `.link-*` classes to colorize links. Unlike the [`.text-*` classes](/utilities/colors/), these classes have a `:hover` and `:focus` state.

```html

<a href="#" class="link-primary">Primary link</a>
<a href="#" class="link-secondary">Secondary link</a>
<a href="#" class="link-success">Success link</a>
<a href="#" class="link-danger">Danger link</a>
<a href="#" class="link-warning">Warning link</a>
<a href="#" class="link-info">Info link</a>
```


Some of the link styles use a relatively light foreground color, and should only be used on a dark background in order to have sufficient contrast.
