Anchor Text
One of the strongest signals the search engines use in rankings. Anchor text is another term for keywords. If dozen of links point to a page with Keywords that relate to the links that will earn major SEO points.

Trust Rank
Not too surprising, the web has mass amounts of spam. As much as 60% is estimated to be spam! No one wants to sift through spam so Google weeds out irrelevant content with a link graph. This aspect takes time to build. Posting relevant links over a period of time will build up a company’s trust rating.
