Is Google's 100 links per page guideline still valid? Particularly given advanced CSS capabilities that allow tabs, reveals and other treatments that allow more content and links on a page without degrading user experience. Blind Five Year Old, SF, CA

  • I like the yellow backdrop. :) Best yet!

  • @crashxxx If he "don't want not us to know something", then why on earth did they make this channel. Google could just leave us in the dark about everything, but they don't. They actually care about good search results, so that they can serve their customers well. So it is in their best interest that people will make websites with good content that they can crawl well and hence give their custumors good SERPs. THAT is why they are NOT lying (very often ;-)). Btw, Nice answer Matt, thanks.

  • @lookingsomevideos I guess you don't know that he made the PR rating algorithm in 2000.

  • This is a very professional answer to the question. It shows that he is very knowledgeable about things in Google.

  • good to know, was wondering that myself.

  • The google guy is wrong with the formula. The formula is PR(A) = (1-d) + d (PR(T1)/C(T1) + ... + PR(Tn)/C(Tn)) ..... C(T) is the number of outdegree links from another page that links to your page. The formula doesn't show any impact to your rank PR(A) when having links in your site, instead, there is a possitive contribution to your rank from others Pages PR(T) which link to you, this contribution is minimized when the number of links on that page are many C(T). The guy is wrong

  • La traducción al español es penosa, y los tiempos que se dedican a cada frase de los subtítulos están muy mal repartidos.

  • Good answer, thanks Matt.

  • @Junije1 in IT probably... but certainly not yours... anyway, have a nice day in "the village" salutations to No 2
