Recommended Anchor Ratio:-
Have a diverse range of anchor types, with your end user (human) in mind.
It is critical to have a clear anchor text/backlink strategy, therefore keeping the search engines (including Google’s!!) algorithms satisfied, this requires a diversity of anchor text types, and a focus on positive user experience.
As mentioned above, it is recommended to use a high ratio of different anchor text to the main money keywords that you are trying to optimize. This prevents your main money keywords from getting over-optimized - the #1 cause of Google Penalties.
Keep generic/naked/branded/image anchor text to a HIGH % of your overall anchors, and then use variations of your main money keywords from order to order. You will avoid over-optimization this way and keep a natural looking link profile.
If you have an established website and want to see what your overall anchor text breakdown is, you can use a tool like www.ahrefs.com.
