I've been reading for a long time about seo, ppc and cpm campaigns.I wanted to try some out for myself, and the one area I've been having trouble fully graspingis SEO. Probably because the search engine commpanies don't actually release their exact algorithms,but let me ask you guys a more specific question about something we do know for sure.If you do a Google search like this:~keywordYepp, put the squiggly line right before any keyword, you'll see all the bold blue termsthat represent other words with semantic relevancy. Now my question is this...Is it better to use a semantic term before or after an anchor in a backlink in terms of SEO value? Thanks!

It's better to use the keyword phrase that you're targetting. But you can also use those semantically equivalent phrases that are shown using the tilde (~) operator.

This is a great way to include other keywords in your content that will help you rank for your targetted keyword phrase while not making it appear spammy.
