        Howard,

        As far as i know there is not an exact number you are allowed to link to form content. I looked at your page (disney part 1) and the number of links is not to high for the amount of content but I think it's mostly everyone's opinion.

        A thing that stood out for me: When I visit your site I see a huge header section with social buttons, site-search, logo, menu and a huge H1. Then I just see a small portion of your content with more adds then content. This could get you hit by Panda/Penguin. Also I see 2 search columns? One on the top right of the page and one in the main section of the site on the right just above the Most popular by Views section. Why?

        I would suggest keeping just 1 search bar, making your header a lot narrower (lower) and removing some of the ads on top and placing them further down in the content. That just my 2 cents on this. As for your question about the outbound links: If the links adds value to the page and is logical then you can keep it but keep it all to a minimum.

        Jarno
