Magic Links is a WordPress plugin that offers a variety of methods to show links.

WebFactory

Opens external links in a new tab or a or new window. You can set URLs that should either be forced to open in a new window or ignored.
The plugin produces XHTML Strict compliant code and is search engine optimized (SEO). 
This is done using JavaScript’s <code>window.open()</code>-function. It adds only a few lines of vanilla JavaScript to the page, and does not require any external libraries like jQuery.
Most other plugins perform a hack by altering the <code>target</code> parameter (i.e. <code><a href="http://somewhere.example" target="_blank"></code>). That method is not XHTML Strict compliant. 
This plugin handles the links client-side, which lets search engines follow the links properly. Also, if a browser does not support JavaScript, the plugin is simply inactive, and does not result in any errors.
