It is also important to have the link itself make sense/be meaningful.
Screen Reader users may also pull up a List of the Links in the
document. Scrolling through the possible links should make sense to
them. If the meaning of the link can only be gotten by reading just
prior to or after the link itself, then I don't think it can be
characterized as a meaningful hyperlink.
