How it works
- Paste one anchor text per line, exported from your backlink tool of choice.
- Each line is classified as branded, keyword-rich, a naked URL, generic ("click here"), or empty.
- The tool flags a warning if your mix looks unnaturally keyword-heavy or over-reliant on generic anchors.
FAQ
What counts as "branded" anchor text?
Any anchor containing your company or product name — a healthy backlink profile is usually dominated by branded and naked-URL anchors, not exact-match keywords.
Why is too much keyword-rich anchor text a warning sign?
A natural link profile has a mix of anchor types. A profile that's mostly exact-match keywords looks like manufactured links to search engines and can trigger algorithmic scrutiny.
Where do I get a list of anchor texts to paste in?
Most backlink tools (Ahrefs, Semrush, Google Search Console's links report) let you export a CSV or list of anchor text per referring link — paste that column here.
Is my backlink data uploaded anywhere?
No — classification runs with simple string matching directly in your browser.
