Hey folks,

I have a few quick questions on SEO....

Let's say I'm using a press release service like prlog.org.

From what I understand, you can't use anchor text in the links there, but it can be clickable if its like http://www.mysite.com

So does that still count as a backlink, even though there isn't anchor text?

And is it a strong backlink, even though there's no anchor text but Google likes prlog?

Sorry if its a dumb question- Im just starting to use more press releases and want to make sure I'm not wasting my time!
