Html code in anchor text

Hello,
So the thing is that our designer made new design for our website. It look nice ok , but as he dont know anything about seo there are some problems.
So the problem looks something like that. For example we have now

<a href="our site"><span>Make money</span> Online</a>

Code (markup):

From design perspective all looks nice. But the question that is unclear for me is what kinda anchor text see google - Make money Online or <span>Make money</span> Online ?
Any ideas ?

 

I think google see make money online

 

Well, since you put the closing tag (</a>) Right after the word "online", your anchor text then is "Make Money Online".

 

Myabe someone have working examples ? Because i really want to see how it works in real life.

 

I think Make money online because your closing tag</a> appear after money..

You're concerned that Google is going to interpret "<span>" as part of your anchor? Ummm...it's not. Don't worry about it.

 

This is how it will appear Make money Online

 

Don't think Google as a fool, Google is quite educated in terms of HTML notation. It will read it Make Money Online.
