Does the number of links on a page metric include repeated links?
-
Just wondering if the number of links on the page metric includes links that are repeated?
So, if I had 100 links to one page would this count as 100 or 1 link?
If it's the former does this mean more links to one page adds weight?Thanks

It won't hurt you in normal circumstances; however in a 100 link rule, I would certainly avoid it. Best practices has taught me that any other cloned link will be skipped over and will not add any additional weight to a particular page. It would be more for usability score if anything.
*I would stick to the 100 link rule for each page and be unique with those links.
