Anchor text words and keyword ranking?

[ChevyCam]

Just curious, if we use lets say 5 words in our anchor text for a specific keyword.

Example: check backlinks everyday and week

Does it means, that we still doing ranking for the first two words and for 3 last words at the same time?

I mean for a keyword - "check backlinks" and "everyday and week"

Or if we use all 5 words at one anchor text, means we only ranking for all 5 words ( means only one main keyword) and if we want to increase rankings for only keywords - "check backlinks" or "everyday and week: , we need to create anchor text only with these words?

You have to use the desired one, two, three, four words as anchor especially at the initial stage.

Once you start ranking for them, you don't really have to directly target all of them.
If you build quality links it will affect your rankings generally.

It's possible that you rank for
check backlinks
check backlinks everyday
check backlinks everyday and
check backlinks everyday and week
week
and week
everyday and week
bakclinks every day and week
backlinks everyday

Assuming you are ranking for the long tail and have seod the page/backlinks for some of the others... The irrelevant ones you'll get as a gift from Google.

If you use "check backlinks everyday and week" as the anchor text, you will rank for that phrase, not specific bits or pieces of that phrase.

I agree also with DABK but target a page or post to that keyword.

That way you will be targeted for all the phrase variations

Why would a person build links for a keyword like check backlinks everyday and??

[DABK]

The point I was making is that you can rank for tons of variations contained within your long tail keyword.

Whether or not you would use it should be based on what your analytics say people use to get to your site.

One of the keywords that sends me traffic is can you refinance after b.

Third time I noticed it, I created a few backlinks... I got a handful more people finding my site with can I refinance after b... and a few more than before people finding it with can I refinance after bankruptcy, can I refinance bad credit.

I did not do a test to make 100% sure that that was the connection. But since the cost of creating a few backlinks is practically 0, I do it.

But, again, here I was just showing the way search engines look at your keyword. I was not talking about what is practical and what is not.
