SEO Q&A

45:35 I have a keyword "pros + target kw + city" that was used as an anchor. It represents 70% of my backlinks anchors or about 300 backlinks. My competitor's anchor text ratio is 80% branded or naked anchors. I'm sitting in positions 10-20 for money keywords. I would like to boost the rankings of this old site.

Does using exact match anchors, even more, will affect negatively the rankings? and what would you do in my position?

Thanks in advance for all your replies.
