Too many outbound links?

[Kyuske]

Hi,

So I'm starting a local website where I share some tips on where to go, where to eat etc. And next to the name I put an outbound link to google reviews. Example:

McDonalds (https://www.google.com/search?q=mcdonalds%20austin&rlz=1C1CHBF_enRO777RO777&oq=mcdonalds+austin&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.2167j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&npsic=0&rflfq=1&rlha=0&rllag=30263846,-97720864,5637&tbm=lcl&rldimm=17006595024941608136&lqi=ChBtY2RvbmFsZHMgYXVzdGluIgOIAQFaCwoJbWNkb25hbGRz&ved=2ahUKEwjIjuOvrprfAhVEmbQKHVNtC18QvS4wAHoECAAQHQ&rldoc=1&tbs=lrf:!2m1!1e3!2m1!1e16!3sIAE,lf:1,lf_ui:4#lrd=0x8644ca1ac5ba4a59:0xec0390120491ecc8,1,,,&rlfi=hd:;si:17006595024941608136,l,ChBtY2RvbmFsZHMgYXVzdGluIgOIAQFaCwoJbWNkb25hbGRz;mv:!1m2!1d30.476801299999998!2d-97.6477231!2m2!1d30.157152!2d-97.8887507;tbs:lrf:!2m1!1e3!2m1!1e16!3sIAE,lf:1,lf_ui:4) <--- Outbound link

And I would have quite a few of these, over 100 in an article.

I'm not doing it for linkjuice or any other crap, I just think it's more helpful
for the user.

So, is too many outbound links a problem?

are you putting nofollow tag to these links?

are you putting nofollow tag to these links?

No as the articles aren't published yet, want to make sure everything is right before that. So I take it if I put no follow for all of these links I'm fine?

Nah, nofollow won't save your link equity, it will just burn instead of transferring to the target. I'd hide those links. Learn more about base64 and post/redirect/get techniques or just don't bother if you don't care about link juice.

Hide those links, otherwise internal linking will be fucked & overall pagerank of your site will drop.

You mean no follow? Or hide them how? Damn Google is weird. I feel like I'm linking to porn from a baby niche website. I'm just giving people directions through Google maps, weird weird weird..

Outbound links are good but too many could be a problem. So try reducing the numbers. Use outbound links only when and where they are necessary.

I try to limit the number of outbound links, over 100 sounds like a lot

reduce the outbound links that will be good
