Default If your Domain is a keyword do you still need anchor text?

Just wondering as I am trying to build some backlinks and some blogs won't let you embed a url but will let you post one.

Any difference here as far as SEO value?

You have a dashed domain so I see no difference.

I have also noticed that G detects keywords in non-dashed domains. For example, if you search for "free web templates", the top result is a non-dashed domain with the keywords bolded.

The anchor text is still very important, regardless of having keywords in the domain/url or not.

Its hard to say how important it will be, that could potentially be different all depending on your niche, competitors, the ranking of those. And so on.

I think anchor text is very important, the domain name not so well, but if you have your main keywords in, you can have a better ranking.

I don't think Google will count the links when they are not life (i.e. just the pasted url) except when the site converts them to live links. Still, with anchor text is always better.

There is people reading that blog post. Why not also brand your domain at the same time?

Definitely leave the anchor text the way it is. I would keep it just the way you have it. It gets the Keywords on their twice and may receive a better result.

you still do need anchor text for your SEO.

But for the comments in blogs, you can forget about them, as they are a nofollow for spiders, that means your webpage will not be taken into consideration of a page ranking.

You should use the dofollow type for more SEO ranking purposes.
