    • Exactly!

      Otherwise..Search engines would not know how to rank your website against a million competitors.
  • Anchor text is imp. because SE use it in their algo. to evaluate their rankings.

    • Anchor text is more important for the page that it links to and not so much for the page it is on. For example if I had a guest blog post on a Outdoor Living blog and linked the words "outdoor gas grill" to another site selling gas grills, then Google would give the ecommerce site a very relevant and important back link--in other words big brownie points

    Nobody noticed OPs anchor-text in the sig?

    OP wouldn't have used anchor-text in their sig. If they didn't already understand the (fake) question.

    • Hi yukon,

      Yep, another spambot spamfest thread.

      Seems like all the spambot spammers are gravitating to this forum since they can post spam to their hearts content, while we humans have to read through all the junk to find real threads started by real people. Sad isn't it?

      We should create a game where we score points for each spambot thread we spot.
