    They are both so important that I devote lots of time to each.

    And be sure to create plenty of in-text, keyword-rich internal links among your own pages. It's a great opportunity for the webmaster to "tell" Google what each page is about, by using the precise anchor text you choose to describe the page you are linking to.

    In my opinion, quality backlinks with good anchor text is the most important. You can have poor quality unique content and still get good rankings based on your backlinks.

    anchor text is important.
    quality content on the linking page is valuable but not as important.

    Both are very important for the site. Rich and updated content is good always to increase the crawling rate ans also traffic from diff niche. Bl is very important for the PR and anchor is the targeted keyword. So comparing is little diff

    Both of them are important. But thinking at the fact that trough link building you could reach top ranking for keywords that are not in your content, I think anchor text of links is more important.

    If you would like to improve your organic search engine traffic you need
    quality content while using the appropriate anchor text links. Having one
    without the other will get you nowhere.
