Can navigation of links help?

[pedrodoyle224]

Recently, I came across few sites,and I found that these sites use a particular keyword for the navigation links.This in turn, possibly helps in easier optimization of the site. In fact, I have also found that the keywords that were chosen particularly for this reason really helped in the elevation of the rank of the site. However, as far as, design is concerned, this strategy is not so effective from that view. What do you think regarding this issue because according to me, it can be a tough experience for the customers to get a superior position?

With the help of the Navigation links user can access the website very easily and if you are using proper anchor text then this help you to get the ranking for these keywords into the search engine result pages. So there are many benefits of using navigation and these are very powerful and effective.

What do you mean navigation links? Are you talking about a sitemap for google? Or links in your navigation section of your site? Why wouldn't you have nav links set up? I'm lost. Please explain..
