Found Out Something
Google likes partial keyword matches in anchor text. They seem to almost insist on it for performance, along with a cloud of irrelevant (SEOMoz calls this Keyword Agnostic) anchor text.
Trying to be found on Google now is more challenging than ever. Keeping up is the work of an SEO expert. Keywords are Google’s second favorite way of ranking a web page. The first is back-links. Sometimes, in the absence of the first factor, backlinks, Keywords in the title and text are the only determining factor of a website’s ranking. Domain authority factors in here, but I’ve ranked for some pretty surprising niches, like New York apartments with just the right keyword formula and nothing else. I did the same for Kona homes with pool and ohana.
Formulaic approaches to Google actually work quite well until people get lazy and try to game the system with a one trick pony like the same anchor text over and over and nothing else, or the same kind of links (forum/comment anyone?) over and over and Google picks that up real fast.
More coffee.
Thanks.
