Three Keywords in Anchor Tag - only ranking together?

[reteep]

I'm curious about this because I'm seeing different evolutions of this.

I got this anchor Text for example:
<a href="www.mysite.com">Coca Cola Forum</a>

now I'm ranked for "Coca Cola Forum".

My question is, do I also rank for "Coca Cola" with that anchor text? (Without Forum) Or really just for "Coca Cola Forum"?

[mystikmedia]

Yes, but to a lesser extent.

would this work? using a title tag, and leaving out the forum part in the title?
<a href="www.mysite.com" title="Cocal Cola">Coca Cola Forum</a>
or vise versa
<a href="www.mysite.com" title="Cocal Cola Forum">Coca Cola</a>

Probably not as the "title" tag isn't recognized by the Crawlers yet.

yet? I thought it was already disregarded...meaning, it was recognized once and then now it isn't.

They are recognized buy search engines but I doubt that would help in your keyword rankings.

BTW it's called title attribute (of anchor tag) not title tag.

right, I don't believe they help at all; so they're pointless really to even use, imo
