You can set an Anchor to jump to the desired Point in your Site.
Example:
If you open the Index where set an "link" to the Anchor "article" and the article is very very down on your site (unendless scroll down ^^), then you can click the "link" and then you are immediatly jumped to the "articel".
Hope you could understand this?

Link can look like this:

<a href="#desired_position">Linkname</a>

And the desired position can look like this:

<a name="desired_position">Here is your position</a>

More Examples (if you can read german or translate it with google or something) look here in Selfhtml.

that's great thank you!
here is something else...it's not about anchors, it's about setting up a forum.
I have downloaded some files from simple machines, but i dont quite understand how to upload them on 000webhost's ftp.......

Oh that's really simple.
You have become an Email with your registration on 000webhost. There are details about to connect via ftp.
Note: Files must be uploaded to 'public_html' folder!
