Anchor TextDiversity Checker
Too many exact-match anchors is one of the fastest ways to look manipulative to Google. Scan a page or paste your anchors, set your target keyword, and see your diversity breakdown in seconds.
We fetch the page on our server and extract the anchor text of every link — no cross-site browser request.

How anchors are classified
Exact-match
The anchor is your target keyword, word for word. Powerful but the biggest over-optimization risk — keep it a minority of your profile.
Partial-match
Contains the keyword inside a longer phrase. Natural and safe — usually the healthy bulk of a profile.
Branded
Your brand name as the anchor. Trustworthy and natural — real sites get plenty of these.
Generic
Filler anchors like "click here" or "read more". Fine in moderation, but they pass weak topical signals.
Naked URL
The raw link as the anchor. Common and natural, especially for citations.
Natural / other
Descriptive phrases that don't contain the exact keyword. Great for diversity and semantic relevance.
There's no official Google ratio. A common safe guideline: exact-match anchors well under ~20–30% of the total, with branded, partial, and natural anchors forming the majority.
