Bill,

Micheal is right, _some_ directories (niche or reciprocal link ones in
my observation) will allow a little elbow room for people to add a
couple of keywords in the anchor text. For example, a web design
directory may allow Example Graphic Design Firm - southern CA-Los
Angelos or some such wording as the anchor text. Of course, with
reciprocal link directories I've noticed some of the cut-n-paste
"code" containing a keyword or two beyond "name of site" thoughts in
the preferred anchor text.

To not have it appear spammish to people using those directories,
though, I would curb the enthusiasm and not see how many keywords I
could cram into that anchor text but be selective and pinpoint certain
keywords. Most, that allow this though, will have a cut off on how
many characters is allowed in that line.

I also noticed a directory this past week that allowed people to place
one page advertisements - around 250 words in length - if they
reciprocated by hosting a one page advertisement for the directory's
site (even specified file name people should use for that reciprocated
page). You remove thier page from your site - they will remove your
page from thier's (the file name specified helps them to keep tabs on
that, I suppose). I wish I had kept the URL of that one to show you as
an example - it was a small business/work from home type site.
