Anchor Text
Here you will learn how to create anchor text. Anchor text is great to build popularity to your site. The more popular the better you will rank. Do not over do this though as it can get you sent to the end of the line!
A few links a day is more than enough. One every few days is perfect!
There is 3 ways to create hyper links with anchor text or anchor pictures.
To display a text link:
<a href=”url_of_link“>Text that will be displayed on your page</a>
To display a text link which opens into a new browser window:
Set target=”_blank”
<a href=”url_of_link” target=”_blank”>Text that will be displayed on your page</a>
To make a picture a link:
<a href=”url_of_link“><img src=”url_of_image“></a>
This is how it will look, I will be using the keyword “custom 404 redirect” to go to my page about custom 404 redirect.
Now I will do it and make it open a brand new page.
Now I will do it using a picture, notice the picture also has “alt” text. Alt text is when a person hovers over a picture and it explains what the picture is. This is important for a few reasons. 1. It helps people identify your picture. 2. It tells search engines what it is so they can index it appropriately.
