Why does Link Clarity say "No anchor text matched for targetUrl" even though the anchor text is correct?
Link Clarity alerts you with "No anchor text matched for targetUrl" when the anchor text seoClarity has stored doesn't match what is currently on the link partners page.
When checking your link partner's page for your anchor text, it is important to remember to look at the source code rather than what is visible on the link partners page. In most cases this alert is triggered by a simple source code change that doesn't change the look of the anchor text on the web-page. So visibly there isn't a change but there is a change for crawlers, however little it may be.
If after comparing the stored anchor text with the source code of the link partners page, you still can't find a difference email the link partners URL, and the Link Clarity alert to support@seoClarity.net so the seoClarity Team can look into other potential causes.
Example email:
I received this alert "No anchor text matched for targetUrl" for these link partners:
www.example1.com
www.example2.com
www.example3.com
I reviewed the source code and couldn't find any differences. Please look into this
