I recommend keeping quotation marks outside of the link, unless they're part of the title of the work. So you'd have this: > I was reading the story "[Flowers for Algernon](http://example.com)" when the doorbell rang. > > I was paging through the tale ["—All You Zombies—"](http://example.com) when my arm was bitten off. (The latter story's title includes quotation marks.) Whatever you do, pick a method and stick with it within a work. **Style guide rulings:** The Yahoo Style Guide doesn't address this issue directly, but it specifies that punctuation shouldn't be included in a link. Examples from p.127, July 2010: > Welcome to Me-Yow! [Send us feedback](http://example.com). > > [A picture of Bigfoot](http://example.com)? > > Where are [my orders](http://example.com)? Where is [my shopping cart](http://example.com)? Similarly, the Chicago Manual of Style addresses punctuation in general but not quotation marks specifically. From CMOS 14.11, 16th edition: > Other punctuation marks that follow a URL or other such identifier will readily be perceived as as belonging to the surrounding text.
