Here's how you create an email link using HTML.

   <a href="mailto:john@gmail.com">email me</a>

2. Make sure to replace the email address, within the link, with your own.
3. If you are inserting this link into a WordPress page or post, make sure you're in HTML tab mode.
   

Note: Email links are susceptible to spam. It is better to use an email form or contact form on your webpage when possible.
