Is there any relevance to capitalizing anchor text?

    Capitalizing anchor text seems like a good idea to an idiot like me but is there any advantage to doing this? How about the use of all caps for anchor text as well?








    Thanks for bearing with me!

    There is no advantage to capitalizing your anchor text for search engine advantage. Its always nice to keep only the first letters capitolized for surfer advantage.

    Vista Screensavers looks better then VISTA SCREENSAVERS in my opinion.

    Well IMO keep the anchor text in small lettered as this is what the people all over are searching for... but it's okay to use "Keword Phrase" as the anchor text as it looks good...hahaha

    imo capitalizing link titles doesn't help with seo, and agree with INV. however, I making the link stand out in other ways such as bold or italized fonts seem to help with seo

    I agree with INV and free, just emphasize the keyword on making it bold

    Free, just digging a bit deeper: Do you feel a difference between <bold> and <strong> tag? What is you opinion in this regard?

    The only advantage of Capitalizing & Bold Anchor text is visualization...
