Was just wondering because on one site I've got, I have subpages targeted to particular terms, and I happened to notice that the one that seems to have been getting the best rankings for its term (with relation to the strength of the term/the traffic coming in from it) was 2nd to the home page in the order and thought there might be some correlation.
