How many urls per page is to many
-
I know it used to be 100 urls per page, but recently Matt cutts has said that they can count a lot more now.
I was wonder what you guys thought was how many was to many per page?

Matt may have mentioned that more is possible, but he also mentioned that he stil recommends you keep the link count at 100 or less ( http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/how-many-links-per-page/ .) In terms of LinkJuice and PR flow, having that many links on a page is definitely not recommended in any cirumstance. Simply put, the value of Juice that is passed through your links is divided by the number of links on your page (no-follow or not).
So if you have 50 link juice points and 150 links, each link will get 0.333 points. (I am just using arbitrary number and the term points to make my point.)
-
When you ask about how many links are "too many", we need to understand the context.
Are you referring to internal or external links?
Are you referring to followed links or nofollow links?
What is your goal with these links?
If you simply care about helping users navigate your site, then use as many as you deem helpful. If you are trying to pass link juice, then you want the smallest number of links possible. The smaller the number, the more juice that will flow to each link.

Too many links per page? Double navigation on every page...
I have a client with navigation across the top of each page plus the same nav links in a sidebar on every page. Can that duplication (or the sheer number of links) on each page have a negative ranking factor?

Where to position a new page?
Hi there 🙂
On-Page Optimization | | Enrico_Cassinelli
Our website is about a particular region in Italy, the Langhe area, famous for food and wine (barolo and barbaresco are produced here). We need to rollout a few new pages about cellar/winery tours: one main page with the list of tours, and the various subpages for each tour. We already have a page about travel, and a page about wine (with a sub-page about wineries). The URLs looks like:
langhe.net/travel/
langhe.net/wine/wineries/
(Note: i'm translating from italian here) Now, I'm wondering where is better to position the new pages:
langhe.net/travel/winery-tours/name-of-tour/ or
langhe.net/wine/wineries/tours/name-of-tour/ From an SEO perspective (within my limited experience) the first option has a shorter URL, but the second feels more "natural" to me. What do you think? Thanks 🙂

Local Service Pages
We've all been here before if you do local. What type of content should go on a local service page when dealing with multiple service locations? You could: Describe Services List Local News Articles List staff in that location (although I would prefer in the staff page for that city) Testimonials from that location or service But what happens when you are describing something that needs no explanation. Or a medical procedure that requires no localization and altering the wording can actually cause legal problems if misstated. Matt Cuts recommends a few sentences to a paragraph to describe a service, but my experience hasn't found this to hold up locally. Any ideas or suggestions about how this could be remedied?
