Frequently Asked Questions
What anchor texts are used to link to fs.usda.gov?
This page shows all anchor texts found in backlinks pointing to fs.usda.gov, sorted by the number of referring domains using each anchor.

The distribution of anchor texts reveals how other websites perceive and describe fs.usda.gov.
What is anchor text?
Anchor text is the visible, clickable text in a hyperlink. Search engines use anchor text as a signal to understand what the linked page is about. For example, if many sites link to a page using the anchor text "best running shoes," search engines infer that the page is relevant to that topic. Anchor text appears in several forms: exact-match (contains target keywords), branded (uses the company or domain name), generic (like "click here"), and naked URLs.
Why is anchor text analysis important for SEO?
Anchor text analysis helps identify potential SEO risks and opportunities. A natural backlink profile has diverse anchor texts including branded terms, generic phrases, and topic-relevant keywords. Over-optimization, where too many backlinks use the same exact-match keyword anchor, can trigger search engine penalties. Conversely, understanding which anchors drive the most authority (measured by referring domain count and DR) helps prioritize link building efforts.
