		<description>For me, the anchor text that you speak of, has gotten me the best results in MSN. :)

I have had a few #1 top rankings for high competitive words on msn, by using the anchor text techniques.</description>

		<description>On one site, I put my images in a folder that uses the site&#039;s keywords.  So the path to the image would be sitename/blue/widgets/blue_widget.jpg.  No idea if it helps, but on a site that has more pictures than words, every bit matters.</description>

		<description>Yes, anchor text and alt tags are very powerful and often underutilized opportunities to &quot;SEO&quot; your pages and gain top rankings at the Search Engines.

At my www.smart-travel-germany.com site, for instance, up to 70% of the referrer traffic comes from top rankings at image searches on the three biggest Search Engines, and most pages are listed in the Top 10 in the normal SERP.

You can accomplish a lot with proper anchor text and alt tags. I&#039;d just make sure to keep it real.

		<description>I&#039;d already guessed that the anchor text was the most important part. If you think about it, it makes sense - the anchor text is what the user sees and reacts to. Users don&#039;t neccessarily see and react to Meta tags, do they?

The thing with using this tactic to build pagerank (etc), is that you have to post that link w/anchor text on &lt;em&gt;other&lt;/em&gt; sites. And since most WordPress blogs have the nofollow thing, it could take a while...

Well, good luck! :)
