(0.12 seconds) This means 38,500,000 sites come up for that search phrase. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rlz=1T4GFRC_enUS203__212&q=allinanchor:sports+forum Results 1 - 10 of about 8,760,000 for allinanchor:sports forum. (0.14 seconds) This means 8,760,000 sites or so use the anchor text sports forum. This would not be an easy project, but it can be done. I don't see any real authority sites in the top results.
I found a site that promises #1 ranking in google for any 5 keywords of your choice AND does not start charging you until you get there. If you are interested, please PM me for the link.
