I have 2 identical links on same page but with different anchor text. I know google will retain only one link for page rank, but I would like to know if the second anchor text will reduce the importance of the first anchor text (for keywords). Thanks.

You don't know that they will only use one link.

Well....It is better to have variations in anchor text of incoming links and more links from the same page do not reduce importance of first one.

BTW, looks like I have read it somwhere else it too.

Why not make both links have good anchor text?

Thanks for the advice, Coolslko.

I guess it won't... Still change the anchor text of the two...
