    I am a student of SEO

    When buying links or building links

    Assume i want to rank high for the keyword “dry cleaning business” with quotation (i repeat when people search with quote in search engine)

    Should my anchor text in link building should be with quote "my text link"

    “dry cleaning business”

    Or should i not place any quote when link building. just my text link

    dry cleaning business

    When you enclose a phrase in "quotes", you are telling Google to search for that exact phrase (rather than just those words sprinkled around the page). Google does not save the enclosing quotes in the database. So you should use the second option in the link (no quotes).

    Quotes in your link anchor text will never help.

    anchor text links should be those keywords that you are trying to rank high for. The addition of quotes will make no difference and should be avoided.

    I don't think that's necessary and it looks quite spammy so don't do it.
    But make sure the exact phrase is repeated 1-2-3 times in your copy.
    Than build links with anchor text equal and around that phrase.
