Since most footnotes indicators are next to a word, I wrap the <a></a> tags around the entire word setting the color/style to match the rest of the sentence giving me that bigger target to hit. I also edit the footnotes to make sure the touch to return area is easier to hit as well, generally by wrapping the <a></a> tags around the first word of the footnote as well. Doesn't take all that much effort and makes hitting a footnote much easier.
Code:
vermine,<a class="urllink" href="../Text/Section0058.xhtml#fn7" id="ifn7"><span class="supscrpt">7</span></a>
<a class="normal" href="../Text/Section0058.xhtml#fn7" id="ifn7">vermine,<span class="supscrpt amiblue">7</span></a>
