"refer to the below link" or "refer to the link below"

Which word order is correct or more common?
One occasion I was told by a native speak to use "below+(noun)."
For me, below+(noun) somehow sounds a bit noble, but (noun)+below seems more common.
Thank you.

"Refer to the link below" is more natural. It is like a shortened version of "Refer to the link which appears below" or "Refer to the link I have given below".
