| author | Provides a link to the author of the document |
| dns-prefetch | Specifies that the browser should preemptively perform DNS resolution for the target resource's origin |
| help | Provides a link to a help document. Example: <link rel="help" href="/help/"> |
| icon | Imports an icon to represent the document. Example: <link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon"> |

| preconnect | Specifies that the browser should preemptively connect to the target resource's origin. |
| prefetch | Specifies that the browser should preemptively fetch and cache the target resource as it is likely to be required for a follow-up navigation |
| preload | Specifies that the browser agent must preemptively fetch and cache the target resource for current navigation according to the destination given by the "as" attribute (and the priority associated with that destination). |
| prerender | Specifies that the browser should pre-render (load) the specified webpage in the background. So, if the user navigates to this page, it speeds up the page load (because the page is already loaded). Warning! This wastes the user's bandwidth! Only use prerender if you are absolutely sure that the webpage is required at some point in the user's journey |
