I wanted to put more than 100 links on my homepage, but it is a property site.

I learned alot from this post

Good to know. Some directories might have trouble following this protocol. It will force all websites to focus on the exact content and subjects of that page instead of a general resources page scattered with over 1,000 links.

I believe the main point to take a look at is how the actual links are being set out. If spaced out in the correct fashion, it can make 1000 links look less spammy than 500 perhaps.

This is the exact article I was hoping to find. Something to explain in easy to understand language the use of links on each page (or overuse), and the possible effects on ranking, Customer useability.

More than 100 links.. I guess that was when the processing was to be limited and now when technology has improved and better processing achieved, more than 100 links would be allowed.
Also, this article talks about Page Rank..but Google is not considering much of Page Rank.

So, keeping this in mind should we go with <100 or 100+ is good as well?

with over 100 links to a page what could be Google page rank? Does the total links in a page include navigation links? Do I have use “no follow” attribute to navigation links? I am not finding answers to these questions? Will you answer me please?

Thanks for this useful but sometimes confusing information. I would have to agree that you should better categorize if you have so many links. Not only is this better usability, also its better for Search engine optimization.

really helpful information but what i was wondering was if 100 links are advisable and there are 490 internal links on a webpage which ones would be crawled first?

Dear Matt,
plz answer this question.

//But what about blogs ? Many times a blog can easily exceed the 100 barrier with tags, archives, categories, frequent used tags, article links, blogrolls, adds. The 100 limit made me to drop the widget that showed my frequent used tags. I just hope that Google takes into account this matter with blogs.//
