Proximity and prominence play a big role in the value a link is assigned. Also, where the link appears matters since the block it occupies has a unique scoring method. Header (typically minimized) due to navigation, sidebars and footers, also devalued. Hence, the body area plays a significant factor in the relevance of that keyword. So, if you can, always use the content or even alt attributes to overlap with breadcrumbs and / or deep links from other sites. Its the aggregate value of ranking factors that make up for why someone ranks on page 3 or page 1 in the end. Thanks for visiting... Justin:

For example if you have a category called "search engine optimization" and within it have a "link building" page, should that "link building page" link back up the "search engine optimization" category/silo from within the content, or would site navigation or breadcrumbs achieve the same effect anyway?
