Hello,

Anchor text is an important part in your website's SEO health.
While anchor text is one of many Google ranking factors, it also tells your readers where they can find more information and what is on the other side of your links. When developing a link-building strategy, anchors can't be an afterthought. Anchor text provides context to both users and search engines. The link label indicates what a user will see on the linked page if she decides to click on it. On the other hand, search engines use the anchor text to index and rank webpages.
