        Hello,

        The way you do coding your website depends on you. As long as it respects the standard procedure and with no error (or minor), there won't be an issue for Google to read your menu and to pass juice. I'm reffering here to internal links.

        So, don't worry as long as your code is readable (as I can see on your example), you won't face any concern from Google.

          Ok good to hear.

          By the way between a menu anchor text and an anchor text in content further down the page both linking to the same page the which one is google going to use ?

          I know it uses the 1 st one it see but is the menu not really "considered" by google...https://www.seroundtable.com/google-footer-sitewide-links-weight-21540.html  isn't it best to have one link in addition to the menu if the menu is not given much value...
