To many links on page and penguin
-
Could to many links on to many pages be a factor that the penguin update would effect your site. I know this is a broad question , but I am curious what people think.

Generally keep your eyes open for sitewide links, keyword-rich commercial anchor text, out-of-context links (like a link for laundry soap on an auto blog) and anything that you couldn't defend to Matt Cutts.

Thank you for the Link ! Mr.Cyrus ! I have decreased the Links, but what is heavily optimized one ?
-
These are all links to pages on my site, not external

Cesar,
I don't think that it would hurt your site but minimizing your on page links could help your site's SEO performance. For example, if page x was a PR5 and it had only 3 links to internal pages on your site it will be passing much more value to these three pages than if page x was a PR5 and had 40 links pointing to different internal pages.
My suggestion is to have a focused SEO strategy with focused keywords that you are targeting.
Hopefully this helps.

Hi Cesar,
Could be, yes. But it's not the number of links on the number of pages, but rather the quality & nature of those links and pages that matter more.
If it's lot's of low quality, exact match anchor text on lots of questionable sites, then definitely.
On the other hand, if you're only talking about the sheer number of links on your own pages, I haven't seen any evidence of this causing Penguin problems. On the other hand, if you have a ton of internal, heavily optimized links, it's easy to overdo it. How many links are too many?

My Moz rank and DA, PA increased ! as i said before these are the changes i made for my blog. and thought i want to share this with you ! Let see what other's say !

We're they effected by penguin? Did they notice an improvement in their keywords after these changes?

My Friends, asked me to remove tag widgets, recent post, recent comments. to reduce the number of on-page links.
Even when you noticed, some article has a thumbnail + title + read more = 3 same links to a source in a page.
so if you have 10 recent post - you will have 10*3 Links apart from sidebar links and navigation links. totally 30 links with 20 links duplicate !These are my idea and these are changes i made in my blog. personal opinion. I am also looking for other experts to answer here ! But you can check my blog with the original theme function !

View all Page for Product Overview Pages
Hi everybody! We have an ecommerce site with product overview pages, where sometimes there are hundreds of products listed. Usually, we just display 30 and have a button where users can click to see 30 more - or all products listed at once. This is the overview page (as indexed in google): http://www.geschenkidee.ch/aussergewoehnliches.html
On-Page Optimization | | zeepartner
And this is the view-all page: http://www.geschenkidee.ch/aussergewoehnliches.html#all What should I do here? The product overview page will hardly generate more traffic by listing all products (because the overview page will rank for generic keywords, while the product keyword searches will be referred to the specific product pages themselves). I was originally thinking of using rel=canonical pointing to the view-all page. But this would just lead to longer load time. Should we just leave those overview pages or is there a best practice for how to deal with such pages? Thanks for your thoughts on this!0 -
To Many Links On Page
I'm having a problem on a crawl warning for our main site. The warning is that every one of my pages has to many links, a little over 1,000 on almost all of them. I think this is because our category list on our left hand sidebar has so many categories, and that sidebar appears on every last one of our pages even all the way into our products. Can anyone take a look and tell me if this is the reason why and what I could possibly do about this? Thanks in advance! www.Ocelco.com

Limiting On Page Links
Right now, we have about 160 or so links on the home page. It's been recommended that we keep it to under 100, though that's not as big of a deal as it once was. Is it helpful to make a bunch of those links "nofollow" in order to preserve link juice? Is it going to make a difference, or be at all helpful? I assume it won't be harmful, especially as a bunch of them are to the same page but on different sections of the page. Would live your advice and thoughts! Thanks!

If a site has https versions of every page, will the search engines view them as duplicate pages?
A client's site has HTTPS versions of every page for their site and it is possible to view both http and https versions of the page. Do the search engines view this as duplicate content?

Dropped rankings due to too many links, help needed
We have just re-designed our site and added a big drop-down navigation menu to help users get straight to the category/sub-category they are looking for, take a look at http://www.discountfiresupplies.co.uk to see what I mean. Since doing so our rankings have dropped which we've been told may be because there are now so many links on (particularly) the home page diluting the rankings of that page. We've been advised that if we hide the drop-down menus using "style='display: none'" until they are required that the search engines will ignore them which we have now done but is this correct or will they still be indexed? And if so do you have any other suggestions? Thanks, Tariq

I am optimizing my webpages according to suggestions from the On Page Report Card. Should I have more than one keyword for a page?
I am optimizing my webpages according to suggestions from the On Page Report Card. Should I have more than one keyword for a page or should I make separate pages for each keyword even when they are similar? Will Google penalize me for making similar pages? Imagine selling, bargain milk chocolate peanut clusters. Keywords examples could be: Bargain chocolate Bargain milk chocolate Bargain milk chocolate peanut clusters Bargain chocolate peanut clusters Chocolate peanut cluster bargains Milk chocolate peanut cluster bargains Etc. Will one page called http://mycompany/bargainmilkchocolatepeanutclusters.com be OK or should I have one called http://mycompany/bargainmilkchocolate.com and one called http://mycompany/bargainmilkchocolatepeanutclusters.com and one called http://mycompany/chocolatepeanutclusterbargains.com , etc.? Thanks for your advice.
