    Types:
    1)Generic Anchors

    "Generic" anchors are typically calls-to-action (CTAs) like:

    “click here”
    “go here”
    “check this site out”
    In a sentence: "Go here if you are looking for SEO information." - "Go here" is the generic anchor text.

    2)Naked Link Anchors

    Any anchor that use a raw URL is considered a "naked" link.

    Examples:

    https://www.gotchseo.com/
    https://www.gotchseo.com
    www.gotchseo.com/
    www.gotchseo.com
    gotchseo.com/
    gotchseo.com

    3)No Anchor Trick

    Whether purposefully or not, it’s a good idea.

    The easiest way to building "noText" anchors is through images or you can simply “forget” to include an anchor within an article, which will have a similar effect.

    4)Image Anchors

    You always throw in image links with every campaign because it’s a great way to diversify your profile.

    Google uses the "ALT" tag as the anchor text in an image.

    If you leave this blank, you will get a "noText" anchor like I mentioned above.

    5)Brand + Keyword Anchor

    This is another great way to stay "safe" and for building a diverse, natural anchor profile.

    6)LSI Anchors

    “LSI” is the acronym for "Latent Semantic Indexing".

    It really just means variations of your main keyword.

    So, if I’m targeting “link building”, then some LSI keywords would be:

    "what is link building"
    "building links"
    "link building example"
    "define link building"

    Here are different types of anchor text :

    Exact-match. Anchor text is "exact match" if it includes a keyword that mirrors the page that is being linked to.
    Partial-match. Anchor text that includes a variation of the keyword on the linked-to page.
    Branded. A brand name used as anchor text.
    Naked link.
    Generic.
    Images

    Exact-match- If you include a keyword in this that is created as exact-match.
    Partial-match- Variation of the keyword on the linked-to page.
    Branded- Use brand name as anchor text.
    Naked link- Use url as anchor text.
    Generic- Phrases use as anchor text.
    Images- Image link with text by using anchor tag.
