Will u place 2 links to same URL at any one page?

Will you place 2 links with identical URL but different anchor text on any 1 page?
I wanna know whether this will do any harm to my site?

I want my destination URL to rank high in 2 different KW .. by doing this, the allinanchor will increase .. but will the BL also increase? (what i mean is that will it be 2x BL compare to 1 link?)

So what's you opinion about this? Will search engine penalize my site? Just curious .. Please let me know you experience .. Thanks

 

I'd like ot know this too... But i think max 2 is ok.

 

Happens all the time, usually for ligitimate reasons though (your logo links to your home usually, + you may have a link on page pointing at home etc).

 

It absolutely won't harm your site but it will only count as one link. How its counted comes down to 2 theories:

1.) Only the anchor text of the first link counts
2.) The combined anchor text counts but each individual word gets a smaller percentage.

In my tests it has been option #1 although its a hard thing to prove.

I always use the second link to go to a subpage so that both count as a backlink and you double the effectiveness of the anchor text.

 

oH .. never thought of this .. overlooked

 

Thanks for the feedback and suggestion .. a nice one

 

Cool, I think you just answered my question.

As I only have one site to promote, I wanted to get the maximum out of my signiture links. I have 4 links to utilise, one to my home page and three to sub pages.

I was wondering if there might be negative repercussions as I don't see many others doing this.

How do you check allinanchor?

 

Use the following operator in Google:

allinanchor:your keywords

For example:
http://www.google.ie/search?hl=en&q=allinanchor:web+design&meta=

 

I never thought of having the 2nd link go to a different page - - brilliant!

 

I always use multiply links to the same page I dont think it does any harm
