It's also an accessibility problem, too. If someone is using a screen reader, a site with "Click here to see latest news", "Click here to browse jobs", "Click here to download our annual report", and "Click here to sign in" will be mind-numbing at best.
Even worse is when there is no actual descriptive text associated with the link. For example, if the browser displays "for the latest news and events, *click here*", the screen reader will only pick up on the "click here" and there won't be any inclination of where the link will go. Yes, the title attribute may help, but only if it accurately describes the destination of the link. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
