Hi Harry,
Partial anchor text is a way that someone would link to you, not what you publish on your site. It's not something you can control or influence by what you publish on your site, beyond the general site theme.

Harry ,
Partial anchor text is primarily for external link building . The rationale behind using this tactic in conjunction with exact match anchors is that people link to your site differently and hence a myriad of anchor texts appear more natural . Although exact anchor text still works an anomalous amount of the same exact anchors might trigger flags and could possibly devalue that exact phrase. For your keyword targets some examples of partial anchors are :
lovely diamond earrings , beautiful diamonds, engagement rings , design your own engagement rings, diamond ring settings.
There is a video that talks about this here. Hope this helps

Citations, How exact should be the citation (Same formating, etc)
Hi there, Thanks for all the support you have been giving to me in the past few posts. I wanted to know how exact should be the citations compared to my address. Here is the scenario. A business has a website, google my business and citations. The address on there website is cited as this: 1, One street West, Local 202, Toronto, Ontario 555 555-5555 The address on google my business is cited as this: 1 One Street W #202, Toronto, ON (555) 555-5555 The address on the citations is a mix of both. So here is my questions, since it is the same address how important it is to keep the exact same format everywhere? Would you make the change on the website and citations as a priority? Bonus questions: is it possible to put West instead of W in google maps? And does the format of the phone number also counts

Total Exact Match Anchor Text Percentage or a Few High Quality Exact Match Backlinks, which is better?
Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me. I am trying to rank a web page for a competitive regional search term. Upon inspecting all the competitors’ backlinks they appear to using an overly high exact match anchor text to rank on the first page for this keyword. Somewhere in the region of 15 – 55% exact match anchor text. So the question is what does big G provide a heavier weighting for, A.) The total percentage of exact match anchor text for all your backlinks, until it reaches the point of over optimization. A higher percentage up to about 60% will help you rank in the top 3. Meaning I should change a 1,000+ backlinks on multiple domains to the exact match anchor text. B.) Or just a few backlinks with the exact match anchor text but from really high quality domains with a ‘Majestic SEO’ Trust and Citation Flow above 40. Any help would be appreciated, exact match anchor text is meant not to work but it still does.

New to SEO - Best Practice Example
I am new to the SEO world and I have been using the tools SEOMoz provides. I was doing some research and happen to find this website: http://www.futuresimple.com/lead-tracking-software/ I noticed that their sitemap does not contain all of the links that are located at the bottom of the page. Also when you click one of the page on the bottom that you are taken to a landing page and it forces you to their software page. Community feedback - do you think this is a good techique to do something like this or can you please provide me a some other good examples for a niche/smaller website? Thank you. Denny

Exact match domains still work??
I'm sure this has been asked and it also has been answered but I'd like some insight from another SEO as to why this site -> <cite>www dot newhomesglasgow.co.uk/ </cite> is ranking on the first page for the keyword(you guessed it) 'new homes in glasgow' OSE shows about 4 backlinks. Is it just the content on the page(that's jammed with keywords) and the matching URL? Any feedback would be appreciated 🙂
