My homepage has several internal links which I would like to use as header tags. For example: <h2> <a href=http://www.example.com/about/> About example.com </a> </h2>Does this pass PageRank to these internal links and therefore take some away from the homepage? Is there any SEO downside to using header tags as links, as exemplified above? 
Does using HTML header tags as links have any SEO downside?
