"Avoid Too Many Internal Links" when you have a mega menu

[Ant-Scarborough]

Using the on-page grader and whilst further investigating internal linking, I'm concerned that as the ecommerce website has a very link heavy mega menu the rule of 100 may be impeding on the contextual links we're creating.

Clearly we don't want to no-follow our entire menu. Should we consider no-indexing the third-level- for example short sleeve shirts here... Clothing > Shirts > Short Sleeve Shirts

What about other pages we're don't care to index anyway such as the 'login page' the 'cart' the search button?

Any thoughts appreciated.

And actual answer is "it depends". For example linking a "contact us" or "about us" is important. But on other side linking "Privacy Policy" or "Terms of Service" isn't somehow important. Except if you're in Germany, Austria, Switzerland where people are looking for Imprint pages.

One of easiest ways to fix this is to make links to be non-crawlable:

because bot didn't click on web page.

I hope that this will helps you!
