Too many page links warning... but each link has canonical back to main page? Is my page OK?
-
The Moz crawl warns me many of my pages have too many links, like this page
http://www.webjobz.com/jobs/industry/Accounting ...... has 269 links
but many of the links are like this /jobs/jobtitles/Accounting?k=&w=3&hiddenLocationID=463170&depth=2 and are used to refine search criteria.... when you click on those links they all have a canonical link back to http://www.webjobz.com/jobs/industry/Accounting
Is my page being punished for this? Do I have to put "no follow" tags on every link I do not want the bots to follow and if I do so is Roger (moz bot) not going to count this as a link?

Webjobz,
The crawl diagnostics summary warning for too many links occurs at 100 links on the page and is based on this info: http://moz.com/blog/how-many-links-is-too-many. You're not likely to be penalized but there is science behind the number so you should look to be more frugal with the number of followed links on your page.
