Thanks for stopping by, Chris! Kudos to you for reading this training piece! Yes, anchor texts play a significant role in building SEO as discussed in this tutorial, but it mustn't be abused lest you hurt your ranking the other way round.
While using anchor texts within posts on your blog or outside your blog, like in forum posts or blog comments, use it wisely and decently, not using more than 8-12 anchor texts in a blog article of 1500-2000 words with 80% of anchor texts pointing back to pages of your blog (Incoming internal links) and the rest pointing to external blogs (Outgoing internal links).
And when used outside your blog like in a high PR forum and so on, use 2-3 anchor texts pointing back to your blog (high-quality backlinks) to avoid getting penalized for link spamming.
Thanks for asking, brother! Wish you much success in your online endeavors!
