Too many links on the same page
-
I have a problem with to many links on the same page, and there all for the classified adds of my web site, what would be the best way to handle this.

So just a quick fyi, when you responded to my question, everyone else can see it. You don't have to put it under each response.
If it is really beneficial to your users, DO NOT eliminate it.
As far as stopping the crawlers from seeing it, that may be worth a try to see if it helps or not. That is done using a robots.txt file.
If I were you before I blocked those pages with the robots.txt file, I would want to be 100% positive that all those number of links were having a negative effect on your site and that they aren't just being ignored.
Take a look at this article: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-many-links-is-too-many it is a little old, but still very relevant in your situation.

it a classifieds area that came with a dating script, it's there for my users, so they can buy and sell items to each other. I really don't want to eliminate it, I think it would be nice for them to have the option. I also heard of stopping the crawlers and spiders from looking at them. would this be a good option if so how would I go about doing that. and would it effect my ranking.

If there are too many, the best way to handle this would be to reduce them.
Seriously though, we need more info. Can you group them in any way?

can you give a little more info? are you trying to do something like craigslist?

Page Layout Updates and Mobile Pages with Ads
I have been trying to do some research on the Page Layout Algorithm and Top Heavy Ads and much of what I read does not mention about mobile pages as apposed to desktop. I am curious if the Page Layout updates can be effected by mobile pages as well and if there is any good articles on this subject. Also is this Algorithm been incorporated into its regular algorithm or do we still have to wait for refreshes to see the impact? Cesar

Can you 301 redirect to a page that has other pages 301 to it?
Two years ago updated url page to include better keywords and used a 301 redirect from the old page to the new. so www.example.com/keyword-1st-generation.html now points to ... www.example.com/keyword-2nd-generation.html That moved the pages up in ranking, but now have better kw for the url, so is it okay to redirect the /keyword-2nd-geration-html to www.example.com/keyword-3rd-generation.html And what is a good length of time before removing the 1st-generation url? It's been 3 years and there is no chance of using it again. Plus, no sign of it in analytics.

Too Many On-Page Links error
Hello, I am new to this. The crawl of y website reveals that "Too Many On-Page Links" were found on many pages of the website. However, when I check those pages, not more than 5 links are found- I have not included links outside of the post (sidebar/comments/related posts - are these counted in the crawl report ?). I do use SEO SmartLinks Plugin where in some keywords point to Wordpress Categories but am not sure whether that could be the problem at all. Can someone guide what the issue could be and how to debug ?

Too many links on a page?
On my blog posts, I have links to all the categories and months, dating back 5-6 years. This make the number of links on each blog page well over 100, which I understand might decrease the value of each page. Is there a problem with having more than 100 links on a page?
