I know that for a high link popularity, you want lots of quality, related links, but I've heard that the links themselves are not enough. For a high popularity visitors now have to click the links and browse your pages. Is this true?

Quote
Obtaining links from other web sites is not enough to obtain long-term results on both the search engines and directories. People have to actually click on those links to your web site and browse your web site. AND they need to return to your web site when they see the quality content, products, and/or services that you offer, i.e. the usability of your web site.

if I understand the statement you quoted, you are saying that people have to click on these inbound links and view your site for them to assist in rankings? Is this correct? If so, how on earth do the search engines keep track of that information? I know I sure as hell don't provide click-thru information to an search engines on any of my sites.

Yes I see, it would be quite impossible to keep track of all of that information. The quote came from a bunch of  sites,

I just read this forum thread on the same topic. I fully understand now.
