Is my link structure hurting my SEO?

[BCB1121]

Moz says I have too many links on the homepage - could this be hurting my SEO?

I have a lot of links on my homepage - especially from the services menu. I also have a few in the intro paragraph that are unnecessary but are linked to other pages using keywords - such as "veterinarians" which go to Meet our Veterinarians, etc. I'm afraid to make changes as I don't want to go overboard and actually hurt our rankings further. Any thoughts on this?

Hey there, Brant!

First off, I would recommend that you change the color of the links in your paragraphs so they stand out.  I like to also make them underline when they're hovered over.

As for having "too many links" -- Matt Cutts recently came out and said that the previous '100 link per page' limit has been lifted.  Here's the video from Nov 2013: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHG6BkmzDEM

It is very unlikely that the current # of links on your homepage is hurting your rankings.

How many links do you have, Bing may ignore your page if you have more than 250
