 @Avantart: TBH, I'm not sure I follow you.

 1, In my opinion the link text should be the title of the page/site that
 you're linking to.
 Usability expert Jared Spool way back in 2004 found that links of 7 to 12
 words achieved the highest success in getting people to the information
 they were seeking. Source:

 2, Sorry, I don't understand your point here.
