    If I have a huge link on my website that says "CLICK HERE TO SEARCH" --- can that hurt SEO for having a "click here"?

    Thanks!!

    No it would be fine, the link though would need to be a decent link & not to some crappy site, or else it may hurt you.

    Ok good --- I thought "Click here" as an anchor text might be viewed as "Cheesy" --- the link would just go to another page on my website to search condos

    (by the way I dont have a site yet, its in the design process now)

    And also by the way --- this forum is a great help!!..... I signed up on another one which was good but less popular, this one I get a bunch of good responses within an hour its amazing
