Anchor text in subpages

[serenoo]

My website is example.com I talk about widget in
example.com/widget and then I have pages for red widget, black widget, ... with this architecture:
example.com/widget/red/index.php
example.com/widget/black/index.php
example.com/widget/white/index.php
....

On top menu of example.com/widget I do not know if my anchors text have to be "black widget" "red widget" ... or only "black" "red" ...

Can someone help saying what is the best anchor text from a Google point of view?

the urls you are asking about would most likely be best structured as:

example.com/widget/red.php
example.com/widget/black.php
example.com/widget/white.php

or even better:

example.com/widget/red/
example.com/widget/black/
example.com/widget/white/

and drop the page extension .php for longevity if you are just building the site url structure.

anchor text is text used as a hyper link, clickable text that is embedded with a link.

Hope that helps. Good luck.

after re reading the post, I think I understand. what should the menu item be, or best for Google as anchor, I think I get it...

I would just use the color. Red or Black ect. By using the term Widget in every button it may very well be considered spammy and over use of the word Widget. Would it look right to the user as having the term Widget after each color? would it be necessary is what you would ask your self?

Again, Hope that helps.

It depends on what the widgets are. If your site is widget-world dot com, then the user will probably grasp that "red", "blue" etc are all widgets. But think about ordinary usage. Even if you sell nothing but tea, links like "herbal" "iced" "sun" etc would look odd.

Thank you Southflorida for your help.

Lucy24: my website is example and does not contain widget or colors. It is a brand name. So what would be my choice? Red widget or only red?
