Can a longtail keyword make you rank for keyword phrases within?
Example: "really funny blue widget"
If I use that as an anchor text for a backlink, will it also make the link rank for "funny blue widget" and "blue widget"? I guess so and some of my own campaigns have indicated this. So I'm at the point where I'm thinking I can cut out a lot of time and work by just focusing on creating backlinks for the longtail keywords instead of the separated keywords. Sort of like beating 2-4 flies with one stone, especially if the longtail keyword is the one with the highest search volume. (I have a lot of those)
How much same link juice do you think google gives the included phrases? Though it may not be as powerful as each separate keyword anchor text, it may still make you rank sufficiently (= get on the first google page if the longtail is high up on the first page too). ?
I appreciate your input.
