    Hi there,

    I've noticed that sometimes people have links on their website in the following way - <a href="xyz.html" title="xyz">XYZ</a>.

    I'm wondering, does the title command in the hyperlink help improve the xyz page in terms of SEO?


    Thanks for any help, haven't really noticed this thing before :eek:

    This helps. Anything ese that reinforces your keywords that isnt going overboard is a great help.

    It really depends on how competitive your keywords are. IN the end, it's worth making every little change on your site to rank better but if that's very time consuming (you have lots of title tags to fix etc.) then your time is much better spent by building links to your site.
