Anchor links percent
-
I really don't have a clue about how many internal anchor links are recommended for a page.
I think it could be split into anchor text in the article content and also in the whole page.
The article content: Only the unique content of this page
The whole page: Everthing including menus, sitemap, etc.
Does percent really matter?
Could an excesive amount of anchor links diminish pagerank in the source page?
Can google see an excesive amount of internal content links as spamming?
Thanks

Watch Matt Cutts (the engineer at Google) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rk4qgQdp2UA
To me, what matters most is conversions, not chasing the algorithm. Sorry for the short answer, but listen to Matt.

Thank you for the video Francisco. It's simple and clear.
But my question focuses on anchor links from Page A to Pages B, C, D.
Page A
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
In this example I have marked with bold the linking text <a>to pages B, C, D. This is not about keyword density, this is about anchor link percent.</a>
<a>The main issue is... how many anchor links are accepted as good? one is enough?
1 Link to page B is the same that 2 Links to page B?</a>

What you are showing me is 1 paragraph with a bunch of links. It's not normal. I don't think there is an "anchor link percent" factor, but you are clearly trying to game Google's algorithm to pass link juice.
Make it natural.
