    Anchor text is the clickable text in a hyperlink. SEO best practices dictate that anchor text be relevant to the page you're linking to, rather than generic text.

    Anchor Text Defined
    Anchor text is the visible characters and words that hyperlinks display when linking to another document or location on the web. It usually appears as blue underlined text, but you change your website's link colors and styles through your HTML or CSS.

    Anchor text can provide both search engines and users relevant contextual information about the content of the link's destination.
