Is my megamenu negatively impacting my SEO?
-
Hello everyone,
I have a megamenu with 87 links in total. We offer a ton of products, so when we decided to have this developed, it seemed like a no-brainer because a straight drop-down menu was really hard to digest.
But I have been wondering if it is creating too many links on every single page and/or muddling the signals to the search engines.
If anyone could take a look and give me their insight, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,

It is not required considering what I see in your site. I think your site is good enough on that front. If you were way above 100-150 in the number of links, it would be something to worry about. As is, it is fine.

Thanks for your response.
So in your opinion, am I going over the rule of thumb?
Should I just cut down the number of items?

HI -
MOZ advises the total number of links in a given page to be kept to under 100. Here is some information that could help you understand it better -- http://moz.com/blog/how-many-links-is-too-many

Social plugin making URLs wonky, would this hinder SEO efforts?
I have a client, heartlandplastic.com who uses a social SEO plugin which makes all of the URL's a bit wonky, for example, the homepage gets redirect to http://www.heartlandplastic.com/#sthash.Cyt22dM0.dpbs Do you think I should find an alternative social share plugin, or that this plugin is fine, as is? They seem to be ranking fine for their immediate area. Thank you!

SEOmoz and Wordpress SEO plugin
I made a lot of changes with Wordpress SEO by Yoast before I signed up with SEOmoz. But SEOmoz doesn't seem to see those changes. I am still being told I have multiple meta descriptions. I don't know why but SEOmoz is seeing the default meta description and not the one I wrote using the Yoast plugin. How can I get SEOmoz to see those changes? Edit: Google has not updated all the changes I made with Wordpress SEO.

How impactful will text at the bottom of the page be?
If the most important content for humans on my page is images (e.g., a picture gallery), but there is very little text high up on the page, how impactful will a text description at the bottom of the page be? I've seen a few other sites put content paragraphs at the bottom of their pages. LIke so: http://www.purpletrail.com/invitations-online http://www.tinyprints.com/ Is this something I would do well to emulate?
