Anchor Text ?

Anchor text is basically text/keyword that is clickable, like example when you go to Google.com , on the top you will see ?Images? ?News? etc, those are anchor texts, clickable words/text, which will direct you to another page.
Here are ways to get backlinks.

OK........the above is the explanation I have found using the "search" function.

Could someone put this into layman's terms and how I can make anchor text for some of the software programs that are on the market.....such as GSA, etc.

Hate for the noob question but I just don't get this one. I am learning every day from this and other forums and really appreciate the help.

<a href="htXXp://blackhatworld.com"></Click here to visit this awesome forum</a> this is an example, just use your own link and your own anchor text.

<a href="http://example.com">keyword</a>

Example is where you want the link to point, and the keyword is the anchor text. Anchor text can be an image as well as text.

Would I use:

<a href="hxxp://mywebsite.com"></Click here to visit a awesome web site for information on whatever</a>
