      Hello

      Should I use 'Click here' as an inbound link for my cornerstone content?

      Example: For a full selection of our Facebook Event Attendee packages, please click here.

      OR

      Example: Please click the following link for a selection of our Facebook Event Attendee packages.

        Hi xdunnings,

        I would strongly advice you to use the relevant keywords as an inbound link in your content instead of 'click here'.

        When you use 'click here' in your link text, you just let search engines know that your content contains a link. By using keywords in your link text instead, you let search engines know what content visitors may expect when clicking the link. The search engines' ranking algorithms are partly based on inbound links to a website. Therefore the text that is used for these links matters to the eventual ranking.

        Another reason is that people don't always read your hole page or article. Therefore it is important for visitors and searchbots to use clear headings tags and anchor text on your page or article so they can have a quick and clear overview.

        Hope this helps you!
