Why does page report still have "Too Many Links" alert?
-
I'm a new Moz Pro user and see that the on-page optimization report includes "too many links" on page and references the "100 links" guideline that Google no longer endorses: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=l6g5hoBYlf0
Too many links is still an issue in terms of passing link juice, but not much else. Matt Cutts has stated that it is fine to have many internal links in this regard.
Please correct me if I am mistaken.

You are right! More than 100 links per page is not really a problem for Google but I guess this is still a valuable option as adding too many links can hurt user experience as well! 100 is just a number but other than Google you should also give importance to user experience as well!

Thanks for confirming! Yes, I agree about user experience, but the many links come from two navigation menus which expand down to lower categories. It is a pretty simple UI: http://store.payloadz.com
