The focus is usually on anchor text, in regards to obtaining bartered or paid links. A webmaster will immediately ask for their top keyword to be linked to the homepage. Also, a secondary keyword will be requested to be linked to its corresponding internal optimized landing page. And wisely, so. It is industry standard to wish to rank higher for that keyword. The end result desired is getting links with that keyword!
A link-buying wise webmaster would say that should be done most or half of the time. There are other things to use. You should mainly use your URL, as this is an utterly natural term one would link. Almost always, natural links link from anchor text starting with "www." If one were writing about this great site he or she found that has all imaginable sorts of bicycle seat covers, in all spectrums of colors and fabrics and size, he or she would not likely link "bicycle seat covers"; one would say " I found this fantastic sire www.bicycleseatcovers.com, and I adore their seat cover selection." This would appear most natural. You may also link your business name at times. Yes, you already rank #1 for your actual business name, but what is wanted is to add credibility to your link profile. This tactic accomplishes this task.
If you are stepping over Google's boundaries, you do not want to show a spike of artificial links. This would be best applied when you are obtaining a large amount of lower quality links, blog articles for example. Be sure you mix up the anchor text. The quantity of incoming links are going to help your site overall more than worrying about the exact anchor text. So toss out a few logical site mentions or specific product mentions to keep it real.
Imagine the handful of truly natural (unpaid) great high PR links you have gotten, just by being a great site, or your business connections. Perhaps you spoke at a high profile convention and that site gave you a link. Or maybe you are a supplier of a national brand that listed you on their site. Which words are linked? "Cheap socks" would surely not be typed in on the seminar's agenda. Your company name would be the link.
