yes they are both counts and even the alt attributes on your images, these are very important in seo. Then you should apply the keyword density, prominence and proximity.

They are being read by SEs so they counts.. But they give weight on the anchor text because it has links on it...

Yes search engine counts both. The keyword in anchor text, in bold and in heading tag is more important than plain text.
