anchor text, commas, phrases and many keywords?

    Hi

    I've seen some sites that have many inbound links with a huge phrase (and hardly any links with individual keywords).

    For instance:

    my keywords USA, My keword2 America, my phrase, more of my keword3s, My keword4, My keword5, My keword6

    Yet they seem to be doing quite well for each keyword. Does anyone know a secret here and are not letting on. If you separate your keywords by commas in a phrase does Google take each of these keywords into account and make this one link like lots of individual links?

    Would you happen to have a real example? I've never seen this tactic myself, and I deal with SEO on a common basis. No one can make an accurate guess if they can't see the proof themselves ;)

    Yeah, if you can provide a specific example, that would be helpful.

    That pattern might be indexed as backlink but I wonder if that will really help. If the anchor is more likely to be description or a good sentence then I think that will help, not like stuffed with keywords.

    I would strongly recommend that no one try this, unless it be on a test website that they do not have any faith in.

    I've found this resource that speaks of a guy who tried this, and saw a complete negative effect for using commas:
    http://forums.seochat.com/link-popularity-43/varying-link-anchor-text-recommendations-24706.html

    A poster in the thread states that it is unnatural; and it is! You will probably get burned for using this if you aren't careful. I personally wouldn't play with fire.

    This resource states the opposite, but they do NOT cite their resources, and I personally wouldn't trust a thing they said judging by the website and the nature of the content:
    http://www.turnerdow.co.uk/seo-The-best-kind-of-anchor-text.htm

    I'm personally sticking to the predictable method- doing it the natural way!

    the actual example I was looking at was anysubject.com many of there in bound links are keyword stuffed ((I'll delete the referance when you've read it) all in one link

    for example this is one link:
    Any*** Ltd - find a tutor, personal tutor, tuition, online tutoring, home schooling - all academic subjects and musical instruments
