Hi, how do you guys write articles with links with the anchor text you want to rank without the risk of google tell it's unnatural?

Let's say you have a site where folks can sell their cars and you want to rank to the keyword "used cars" or "sell car".

I can't think of a way of write an article (or more than one) and not seem fake.

    It sounds like you are writing for Google not your target audience. Yes, Google will penalize you for it. Write quality content and G will love you.

      Sure i am. My website is not an info website, it's an utility site, a store, like i said, on the "used car" niche.

      And, by checking links of competitors, it's obvious that they also wrote or bought articles, links and grey hat stuff.

        You asked, I answered. Forget your competition. WHAT does your target audience want to know about used cars?

          Ok, let's say "world chrisis" is what makes folks interested on used cars. Now, if i write an article anywhere with the anchor text "used cars" i'm almost certain that i going to be slapped, even though in my opinion it's not unnatural...

    So let's assume you are posting these articles on external sites such as guest posting on blogs and article directories. If that's so, you're likely going to run into artificial backlinking penalties. Google can smell fake backlinking, as usually the person posting the articles will use the exact same anchor text every time. Do so at your own risk.

    You don't, don't post links on article sites from article directories. That's an old technique that triggers penalties these days.

    Sorry!

    If you insist on doing it, you need to vary the anchor text drastically. Your going to want 'click here' yoursitename.com and 'cars' or 'this great site/ etc.Different people use different anchor text, so if you want it to look natural, you'd better use different text too.
