Thanks Rand (OK and great scott! who actually did the post) this is some very good food for thought.
When creating links within a website you should be concerned about being able to get the most juice from your efforts. Remember search engine positioning is like adding feathers to a balance scale. “It takes a lot of feathers to to create weight. So make sure you can add the heaviest ones each time you place one on the balance.”
