We see an occasional question in Blogger Help Forum: Get Help with an Issue about blog links - and the captions that change colour, mysteriously.
Some blog owners seem to regard the colour changes as one more Blogger pecadillo - ignoring the fact that colour changing link captions have been part of Internet design, since the early days.
In most blogs, you can change link colours - and prevent the colour changes - using the Blogger dashboard Template Designer.
You can change any color using the color code, or a color chart, part of any colour wizard.
To access the Template Designer, start from the dashboard Template page.
The Template Designer is behind the "Customize" button, on the dashboard Template page.
From the dashboard Template page, click on the "Customize" button.
Start with the Template Designer main page.
Click on Advanced - and look for "Links".
On my blog, I can adjust "Link Color", "Visited Color", and "Hover Color".
Template Designer menu and wizard combinations may vary.
The Template Designer menu / display can be adjusted according to the decision of the template designer.
Your template, when customized, using Template Designer, may have a "Links" section, with "Link Color", "Visited Color", and "Hover Color". It may have additional colours - or colours and fonts may be combined. All of this is as setup in the template "Variable definitions" section.
You can change any colour using the colour code - or a color chart.
If you want your links - including titles - to remain one colour constantly, change the 3 colours (or whatever your blog has) to one common value.
My blog uses "Link Color" = "2d25ce", "Visited Color" = "ce25c5", and "Hover Color" = "583fff". Your blog may use a different colour combination.
For a useful color number / visual chart, you can use W3Schools: HTML Color Picker.
Not all #Blogger blog owners understand link captions - and how the caption colours change, to indicate pages that have been visited from a given browser. Some think the colour changes are a Blogger novelty.
In reality, link caption colours have been a feature, since browsers were first used in the Internet.
