Link Titles? Yay or Nay?

[MidwestMerchant]

So link titles add usability to your site. They look kinda cool and are pretty much considered an alt tab for a text link. We know this but my question to everyone is do search engines consider link titles when ranking pages? If so, how important are they?..Should I do it to every link or just major links?..Thanks in advance for any feedback everyone :)

There's no reason not to. I use it on all my sites! I don't know if it helps rankings at all, but it certainly doesn't hurt.

<a href="whatadomain.com" title="this here is one fine domain">

Useful for the visually impaired...in IE, if you mouse over the link and remain motionless the link title will pop up...

Thanks House: I'll have to try that just out of curiosity. - Larry

If they don't really impact page ranking, they're just bloat, no? Are they worth the extra x% of bandwidth?
