Link Amounts and Page Sizes for WebSite
Link Amounts: In their Webmaster guidelines Google has recommend webmasters to keep the number of links on any page to fewer than 100. The reason for this limitation is that pages with many links are treated by search engines as “link farms”. The webmaster guidelines do not provide information on the way Google treats link farms, but empirical data shows that links placed on link farms are ignored by Google and don’t add up to the page rank of the URLs they are pointing to. Link farm pages have quite low page ranks and are often filtered from search results. If you absolutely need to post multiple links, you can split the page into several smaller pages each one having fewer than 100 links.
Page Size: Back at the time when Google was created it used to index only the first 100 KB of the HTML code in each web page. Nowadays Google has stated that they index more than the first 100 KB of each page, but they did not reveal the exact maximum size of indexed web page content. An experiment done a few years ago showed that Google used to index the first 512 KB of each page, Yahoo indexed only the first 200 KB and MSN used to index over 1 MB. To satisfy the requirements of the different search engines you should choose a safe value like 100 KB.
