Using Link Title Tag for SEO
Here’s a good optimisation tip, did you know that you can add optimised title tags to your site’s internal links? Here is what it looks like:
<a title=”Computer Monitors ” href=”your-link” mce_href=”your-link”>Home</a>
I’ve bolded the title tag in the above example “Home” link, and as you can see, while the visitors can still see home as the link text, the title tag allows engines to understand that the home link is also the home page for a site about in this instance, “computer monitors”.
Users can also see the words “Computer Monitors” when they hover over the link so make sure you don’t stuff the tite tag with too many works otherwise it will lead to bad user experience and may be construed as spam!
By following the above simple example, you can insure that all your website’s internal links are optimised for the keywords you’re targeting and supporting your overall onsite optimisation efforts.
Using the link title tag will contribute to your overall efforts to rank higher in the search engines results pages.
