An anchor is an invisible marker that identifies a particular location on a page. If you’re a designer or site administrator, you can add an anchor to the page and then create a hyperlink that jumps to that specific location, which can be useful if a page is particularly long. For example, if your page has several sections, you could add links to each section at the top of the page to aid navigation.
