How Many Outbound Links Should I Maintain

[haekel]

I continue to get link exchange invitations. Apart from the fact that the links I connect to should be relevant, is there an ideal no. of outbound links that I should maintain - or maybe a ratio or something? Should I even consider their page ranks - and do I have that right when mine is not that high (the last question may be stupid but I still want know). Thanks.

I wonder if there is a minimum number of external links you should have. I have many scoring articles that do not contain any outbound link. I think your site in total should have outbound links but not specifically per article. Or else I should not be able to rank at all.
