When using the href "title=" is it better to link using the title for the target page or the description?

Any thoughts???

Ya know...I was curious about this the other day too, but I link with keywords from the page it is on, not the page it is going too.

Like most options... it varies based on what you are trying to achieve. :D

Using the description is good for passing relevancy and adding keywords to your page,

but with using the title... it gives more focus and relevancy through use of very targetted KWs

Google(and others) likes minimalism :)

THX for the input. I figure I'll go with the title and see how google handles it.

Also was thinking afterwards that using the descriptions on these pages might be a little too heavy a diet for the bots.

agree: and make sure you choose the KW's that fits your site best, there is now use of trying to target any KW's that don't fit:

1. no relevancy
2. traffic would be half worth of it then the traffic from KW's that fit
