        There is nothing strange about this, it is just that someone here has taken specific marketing measures. On the other hand, however, it is not always about the quality of the content, but also about the links themselves, the places from which they come directly.

          Based on the description, it appears to be a site-wide link, possibly originating from their above-the-fold or footer navigation. This is a standard practice for certain collaborations and something I would advocate for, but not solely for SEO purposes. Instead, the goal should be to drive genuine traffic rather than simply obtaining a large number of links (which, at that scale, are likely to have minimal value) from a single partnership.

          In some instances, an excessive number of links from a single origin might be perceived as inauthentic linking practices, potentially resulting in a Google penalty. If you're concerned about the quantity of links from a single source, Google Search Console's Disavow Tool can be used to instruct Google to disregard those links.

            While there's no hard limit to the number of links on each page, consider limiting hyperlinks to what makes sense. If adding a link provides important context or navigational capabilities, add it — but if your page has too many unnecessary links, you might be creating a poor experience for users.

              Having too many links from a single site can potentially affect your website's SEO negatively. It's important to maintain a balanced and diverse link profile for better search engine optimization. (Canada PR) ( PMP Exam Prep) (Study abroad)

                The individual you mentioned has managed to acquire a substantial number of backlinks from a single site, likely through various methods or partnerships. Whether they will be penalized or not depends on whether these links violate search engine guidelines, such as being considered spammy or manipulative. Search engines may penalize websites for such practices if they're against their guidelines. (Study abroad) (Which Stream Is Hard Science or Commerce) (Canada PR) (PMP Exam Prep)

                  If you have so many links from a single site, it's important to assess the quality of those links. If they are coming from a high-quality site with relevant content, then they may be beneficial for your SEO. However, if they are coming from a low-quality site or a site that is irrelevant to your niche, then they could actually hurt your ranking.

                  In some cases, having too many links from a single site can be seen as a sign of link manipulation, which could lead to a Google penalty. If you're concerned about the number of links from a single site, you can use Google Search Console's Disavow Tool to tell Google to ignore those links.

                          It's a tricky business, trust me. You can get tanked in Search because of it. And when you are, prepare for 6 months of zero organic traffic untill those links are either set to nofollow, or removed completely.

                            i have some 1700 links like those, actually, i posted one link on this edu site and other seo's came and filled that page, now for that post there 1000 pages.

                            what is the good Amount of these links?

                            or should be avoided at all costs?

                              Very much a site-wide link it seems, it could be that they're linking this from their top or footer navigation. It's a regular practice for certain partnerships. It's something I'd encourage people to do, but not from an SEO point-of-view as you should aim to drive actual traffic instead of just getting 200K links (with likely barely any value at that scale) out of a partnership.

                                it's called a "Sitewide" link. Yes there's risks to that, as i had a client doing the same on 2 different websites, boosting the amount of incoming links to roughly 250k in less then a month. After that he got tapped, lost all positions, traffic went down significantly, we had to adjust links, and it took on average 6 months to 'recover' from that.

                                  Breaking up a site into multiple sites

                                  Hi, I am working on plan to divide up mid-number DA website into multiple sites. So the current site's content will be divided up among these new sites. We can't share anything going forward because each site will be independent. The current homepage will change to just link out to the new sites and have minimal content. I am thinking the websites will take a hit in rankings but I don't know how much and how long the drop will last.  I know if you redirect an entire domain to a new domain the impact is negligible but in this case I'm only redirecting parts of a site to a new domain. Say we rank #1 for "blue widget" on the current site. That page is going to be redirected to new site and new domain. How much of a drop can we expect? How hard will it be to rank for other new keywords say "purple widget" that we don't have now? How much link juice can i expect to pass from current website to new websites? Thank you in advance.

                                  If I nofollow outbound external links to minimize link juice loss > is it a good/bad thing?

                                  OK, imagine you have a blog, and you want to make each blog post authoritative so you link out to authority relevant websites for reference. In this case it is two external links per blog post, one to an authority website for reference and one to flickr for photo credit. And one internal link to another part of the website like the buy-now page or a related internal blog post. Now tell me if this is a good or bad idea. What if you nofollow the external links and leave the internal link untouched so all internal links are dofollow. The thinking is this minimizes loss of link juice from external links and keeps it flowing through internal links to pages within the website. Would it be a good idea to lay off the nofollow tag and leave all as do follow? or would this be a good way to link out to authority sites but keep the link juice internal? Your thoughts are welcome. Thanks.

                                  Sitewide Footer Links & Sister Sites

                                  Hi We have a number of sister sites across Europe - the sites are under a different domain name, but have a very similar layout & product offering. When looking at duplicate content, they are flagged as being a moderate risk with similar content - we don't duplicate product content, however it's similar. We also link to them in the footer in a drop down - not anchor text links - however this is still seen by Google. I don't think I'll be able to remove links to our sister companies, but should I implement the Href lang if the sites are slightly different? Or find another way to link to them? Here's an example http://www.key.co.uk/en/key & https://www.manutan.fr/fr/maf

                                  Do links to PDF's on my site pass "link juice"?

                                  Hi, I have recently started a project on one of my sites, working with a branch of the U.S. government, where I will be hosting and publishing some of their PDF documents for free for people to use.  The great SEO side of this is that they link to my site.  The thing is, they are linking directly to the PDF files themselves, not the page with the link to the PDF files.  So my question is, does that give me any SEO benefit? While the PDF is hosted on my site, there are no links in it that would allow a spider to start from the PDF and crawl the rest of my site.   So do I get any benefit from these great links?  If not, does anybody have any suggestions on how I could get credit for them.  Keep in mind that editing the PDF's are not allowed by the government. Thanks.

                                  How to properly link network of microsites and main sites?

                                  Law firm has a main brand site (lawfirmname.com) with lots of content focusing on personal injury related areas of law.  They also do other unrelated areas of law such as bankruptcy and divorce.  They have a separate website for bankruptcy and a separate one for divorce.  These websites have good quality content, a backlinking campaign, and are fairly large websites, with landing pages for different cities. They also have created local microsites in the areas of bankruptcy and divorce that target specific smaller cities that the main bankruptcy site and divorce site do not target well.  These microsites have a good deal of original content and the content is mostly specific to the city the website is about, and virtually no backlinks. There are about 15 microsites for cities in bankruptcy and 10 in divorce and they rank pretty well for these city specific local searches. None of these sites are linked at all, and all 28 of the sites are under the same hosting account (all are subdomains of root domain of hosting account).  Question, should I link these sites together at all and if so how?  I considered making a simple and general page on the lawfirmname.com personal injury site for bankruptcy and divorce (lawfirmname.com/bankruptcy and lawfirmname.com/divorce) and then saying on the page something to the effect of "for more information on bankruptcy go to our main bankruptcy site at ....." and putting the link to the main bankruptcy site.  Same for divorce.  This way users can go to lawfirmname.com site and find Other Practice Areas, go to bankruptcy page, and link to main bankruptcy site.  Is this the best way to link to these two main sites for bankruptcy and divorce or should I be linking upward? Secondly, should I link the city specific microsites to any of the other sites or leave them completely separate?  Thirdly, should all of these sites be hosted on the same account or is this something that should be changed?  I was considering not linking the city specific sites at all, but if I did this I didn't know if I should create different hosting accounts for them (which could be expensive).  The sites work well in themselves without being linked, but wanted to try to network them in some way if possible without getting penalized or causing any issues with the search engines.  Any help would be appreciated on how to network and host all of these websites.

                                  My company website recently got its site links in google search... WooHoo! However, when you type TECHeGO into Google Search one of the links is spelled incorrectly. Instead of 'CONversion Optimization' its 'COversion Optimization'. At first I thought there was a misspelling on that page somewhere but there is not and have come to the conclusion that Google has made a mistake. I know that I can block the page in webmaster tools (No Thanks) but how in the crap can I get them to correct the spelling when no one really knows how to get them to appear in the first place? Riddle Me That Folks! sitelink.jpg
