Dont add 100+ links in a page

You have got a beautiful website with great content. You want your visitors to feel comfortable, navigating your site. So you created a listing of all articles so that visitors can go through each and every article title and click on them to read whatever they feel interesting. This sounds good. But wait SEOmoz in its article on “How Search Engines operate” says that if your page has more than 100 links pointing to other pages then search engines may not spider your pages. This clearly means that Search engines will start assuming you are building a link farm. That may result in penalizing or ignoring your links page and your articles. The best solution to this problem is to divide a single links page into two or three. Also it becomes tedious for the human eye to navigate huge number of links especially in a single page.

I have been archiving all my posts in a single page so that readers may find it handy to go through all posts titles at a time. The number of posts in my blog has crossed 150 and so I am going to add a new page to link to my future posts. If you are using a similar way of linking your articles it is better not to dump more than 100 links per page.
