1. Anchor text should include targeted or branded keywords as often as possible, or at least some part of descriptive information about the page being linked to.
2. People have a tendency to link to content using the anchor text of either the domain name or the title of the page.

the words you choose for linking out and into your site matter too – and quite a lot! Those words are called anchor text, and Google’s algorithms pay more attention to them than newbies  realize.

What is anchor text?
Anchor text is the text that appears highlighted in a hypertext link that can be clicked to open a target web page.

There are many direct and indirect SEO-related advantages of using anchor text, and I will point out some of the most important ones in this post.

It has been well established that keyword research and on-page optimization are important to every blog post. When you write an article, and you wish to drive traffic from SEO, you need to make it targetable for search engines.

In addition, linking to other articles and information using anchor text is also a very good practice for bloggers to regularly incorporate into their work.

One mistake which many bloggers make, however, is by simply linking back to old articles with text like “read here” or “more information here”, which does not give much technical value to search engines. A more useful way to link back to your articles with anchor text is by creating links that use your target keywords!

This is not only important for internal links but when you are working on your guest posting campaign, you have to make sure that you are getting links from other domains with the target keywords you want your pages to rank for.
