      How much would this affect my page ranks performance?

      There are many Too Many On-Page Links? warning on my campaign. should I address this issue right away to fix it or leave it as it would not matter seriously ?

      I've looked at some of the pages and think all of them are necessary.

      Could someone help me?

      Thanks!

        As long as the user experience is not effected then it doesn't really matter how many links you have on a page.

        You may find this video by Matt Cutts helpful. There use to be a general recommendation of keeping on page links to fewer than 100. As Google has evolved, so has the recommendation.

        Hope that helps,

        Adam.

          Had the same issue.

          I had over 3,000 reports of to many on-page links.

          Some of my pages have thousands of links. Thought Google would hate me for it and penalize me. Decided to go with "it was better for user experience" which it was and it has not impacted my ranking.

            Here's a blog post Dr. Pete wrote about the warning at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/how-many-links-is-too-many that may help.

              Thanks for the response. Could I set some of them to 'nofollow' would that help? As I assume the robot would skip crawling those nofollow link?
