Article Marketing Success – Creating Text Anchor Links

If you do not already know how, it is vitally important that you learn how to create text anchor links.  Whenever you create a text anchor, it must show up as being a live link. That means when a reader sees the link, they can click on it and be taken straight to your website without having to mess around with copying and pasting.  Now, most article directories will accept your link in two different methods, either directly or as a text link.

If you want to see a sample of a direct URL link look at the bottom of this article.  If you click on to this link, it will take you straight to my index page.  A sample of a text anchor link is also below.  You will be able to identify it as it should be blue and clickable.  Again, if you click on to this link, it will take you straight to my index page. However, in this second example, the text is quite different from the URL.

When you first begin registering with the article directories, it is important for you to check what format each directory will accept your link. If they accept only the URL format, then use that format in your articles. If the directory accepts text anchor links, you will have to use HTML code.

Now, whenever you create HTML code to generate a back link, just remember to use the keyword that you want to be highly ranked for where the text section of the link is.

By including text anchor links in your articles you can dramatically increase the number of backlinks to your website on a daily basis. 

The use of text anchor link has help me achieve several #1 spots in several search engine results.
