This is called an anchor text and is really easy to add. Linking to anchors is a lot like normal links. Normal links always point to the top of a page. Anchors links point to a place in a page.

Anytime you can maintain the function and professional look without something on the website than get rid of it or move it to another location not in the main part of the website.
