When your text paragraphs comprise multiple bulleted levels, you can just use the defaults that PowerPoint provides. This takes care of all paragraph indentation issues. However, to have more control you have to use your own indentation values. This option makes your text look consistent and clear, as per your needs. Indent Markers visible on the Ruler are probably the easiest way to achieve such structured results. However, this method does not let you precisely position the indentation since you just drag and pull the Indent Markers rather than setting them up via an exact numerical value.

Unlike other anchors, hyperlinked text in PowerPoint is underlined automatically, and thus visible as an anchor.

We all know that the internet is a storehouse of so much content, and sometimes you may want a click on your slide to open a web page. Show the web page to your audience, close it and you are back on the slide you clicked. You can now seamlessly move on to your next slide. This sort of activity is easy to recreate.
