deep linking in wp problems

Can somebody please help me? I have searched how to do deep linking and found that first I need to make the section/title or a word in code-

<a name="#call it what you want or title"></a>

And then you put this code in new page

<a href="http:etc..your site and page.html#call it what you want or title">link</a>

I hate to be totally stupid but in the last code is the word 'link' the actual link again or the word >link<?

I have tried it numerous ways and cannot get the first part to work! though I am taking my articles from Ezine and trying to put the code in there. I have a page on wp with "Articles" and want to have links to the various titles of the articles in different sections (sports art, jewelry related, etc..)

They are my own articles but I have lost them in the great abyss of my desktop so I thought it would be ok to take them from Ezine even if some have pen names. Your thoughts on this?

Is there a better way to do this? use the kitchen sink thingy? direct me to a good tutorial?
thanks much for any advice!

    ^^ this is wrong.

    <a name="whatever"></a>

    And it's called NOT deep linking but "name attribute" > HTML a name Attribute

    Providing, this "name" is in a document called 'something.html' you would link directly to the 'bookmark like:
    <a href="http://example.com/something.html#whatever">this is the link text</a>

    Note: the > and the < belong to the code!
    <a href="URI"> and </a> - opening and closing tags, respectively, of the HTML anchor tag.
