STOP words

I have read a lot about the usage of stop words over the last few years.  Words like in, for, click, by, the etc...  However I have to disagree with all that I have read. (please explain why I may be wrong)

You say

5. Avoid "stop words" such as and, with, by, from etc.

However using these words in anchor text can make a huge difference for those not using pigeon English when using the search engines.  You may find it hard to get ranked for "Franchise sale UK"  which is grammatically incorrect, perhaps you languish at number 9 out of 10 on the first page in Google, but a few anchor texts with the "in & for & the" STOP words may see you go to the top spot for a more grammatically correct phrase.  So why not add it?  I know from experience that most of my competitors do not use stop words, yet as I do I frequently find new phrases that attract number 1 and 2 spots in Google and provide me with website traffic because of them.

For me using stop words is a must and not a stop at all.  When I promote my search engine rankings to my clients I far prefer to show them my results with the stop words as I can show 20 number 1 spots for low word count phrases as opposed to mid way results for pigeon English phrases.

Release the STOP words and let them flow! :-)

Quite simply - I may not be number one for "Franchise Sale UK" but i am for "Franchises for sale in the UK"  & "UK Franchises for sale"

Cheers

Anchor Text

 Good points and an excellent article. Having recently had my site hacked:

Celtnet Recipes Site

I've had to work very hand in the past month to get the links to that site anchored properly so I score for what the site's about (free recipes) rather than the male enhancement products that the hack was about. Very frustrating and annoying, but it shows how important link text is and how an attack can effectively destroy a website.

thanks

thanks for this good information

and now i am using anchor texts such as north cyprus car hire

Anchor Text is Still #1

I've heard a lot of poeple talking about how anchor text isn't that important anymore.  To that I say it is simply not true.  My proof?  Do a standard keyword search in Google.  Then, do the same search but using the "allinanchor:" operator.  The results will be almost identical.

Google Bombing

Anchor text can still have a positive affect on SEO, but nothing like it did at the time this was posted.

Google pagerank calculations?

Thats true, does anyone know the current google calculations as far as anchor text goes on high page rank pages go? For example PR4-6?

 

Thanks,
