12. Search Operator You now know which sites are doing the best job with their anchor text (and what keywords they are going after) so its time to see where they get all their links from! @Matt_Siltala
13. Now that you know the sites that are on top by using “allinanchor:”, you can do a search with those sites and the keywords that you are targeting to get a better idea of places to find links, and why the competition ranks. @Matt_Siltala

Its obvious what you would then do with that kind of data! Data for: Digg, Delicious, SU, Twitter and more! Great for researching STRONG content! @Matt_Siltala
