Anchor text for Backlinks?

[Bulldozer]

If I want to post a single back link to 100 blogs/sites, do I have to come up with 100 different anchor texts for that same link?
Or is it OK to use the same anchor text on all 100 blogs/sites?

Try and diversify a little bit. Don't use the same anchor text always.

General rule of thumb is to use your main keyword anchor text around 70% of the time and distribute the others to secondary keywords.

Makes things look more natural.

Makes sense, however when you are posting one link to 100+ different sites/blogs every day, you kind of run out of anchor text ideas.
I mean, you can spin a phrase or a sentence a limited number of times.

If you are posting a backlink 100 times a day, that's a total of 3,000 postings a month!
I don't see how people can diversify one anchor text phrase in 3,000 different ways. Or even if it is possible, it would be extremely hard to do. It would be hard to come up with the spin ideas and it would be hard to keep track of which of them you've used already and which are fresh.

Can anybody shed some light on this issue?
What do you people do with the anchor text when you have to post a link 3,000 times?

Why are you asking? You are going to fail hardcore if you ask everything. You need to test yourself.

It is certainly Ok as it can lead your site to a better ranking to the keyword on your anchor text. However, changing anchor text after posting a bunch of links (not every post) is also a good idea, not to diversify but to also help your site boost its ranking on other keywords as well.

Try to use 4 to five keyword phrases from the main keyword to distribute in 100 blogs/sites through anchor text, and it will provide you quality bakclinks from other related sites.

So I don't have to use a different anchor text for each and every backlink?

[JamesGw]

Yeah. Use some click heres, my websites, and www . yourwebsite . coms. You should also use maybe 2-3 different keyword targeted anchor texts.

You should mostly use the keyword as the anchor text, but sprinkle some "click here" or other keyword variations so it looks more natural

Got it, thanks, folks!

I agree with RevSEO, try to diversify your anchor texts. Try also to link not only your homepage but also other links on your site.

Those phrases click here, my websites and www. yourwebsite. com don't have any positive effect in improving keyword ranking, I advise you not to do like that. Try to use some long tail keywords in your anchor text.
