Too Many On-Page Links

[Moxicopy.com]

Ok so I am very new to MOZ, and we have just set up our PRO account and campaign.  When we got our crawl results we had 4 pages with "too many on-page links".  All of these pages correspond with our blog, which is a wordpress hosted blog that is integrated into our site.

Our site is www.moxicopy.com and the blog is www.moxicopy.com/blog

I am confused on how we have over 100 on page links on these pages, as we have very few links on our blog.

Dr. Pete wrote a post about this warning at http://moz.com/blog/how-many-links-is-too-many that should help give you some background and help you start on this. After you read that, let us know what other questions you may have.

I would suspect that either/both of your left hand nav bar and footer is being counted as links.

To be honest, I generally wouldn't worry too much about it anyway. As long as your page isn't all links and has a fair amount of content on it, then it shouldn't be a big problem.

You might want to ask yourself if so many links are actually necessary on the page though, especially the bottom ones which should be seen as keyword stuffing (poorly formed URLs as well, yo should use- not _ to separate words!) Google is likely you to punish you at some stage in the future for employing this tactic.

There is quite an interesting article and discussion within the comments section here.
http://moz.com/blog/how-many-links-is-too-many The general point the author makes is "More Links = Less Love per Link." Which I very much believe to be true!

Look at your source code, quite a few links.

Delete all keyword tags and you're stuffing like crazy

i thought with the SEO plugin that the keywords were for each individual blog post? because that list looks like every one put together.  How would I access the source code in my wordpress dashboard?

Hey there,

Matt Cutts did a post on this in early 2011 around Google's one-time recommendation that pages should not have more than 100 links on them. He goes some way to debunking this but also notes the need to prioritse which pages you'd like to see recieve the greatest amout of PR, having robust content etc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6g5hoBYlf0

Good luck.

Why would the source code take EVERY single keyword (for over 40 different articles), and link them all together..
