In late 1994, I downloaded a description of HTML, printed it on my Deskjet 550c, and then built a webpage on my free student account at UF.
By early 1995, my linked content no longer loaded.
Link rot was there from the beginning, except of course the phrase "link rot" had yet to be coined.

Good luck.
