I've been hearing in the training that you want to limit your affiliate links to one review and then simply link that review in other posts, but what do you do when you have a

Accordingly, There's No Minimum Or Maximum, But In General, Fewer Is Better. Technically, there's no specific limit to how many links you can have on a page. I've seen instances where a 2,000-word blog post can have 20 or more affiliate links on a page and still rank #1 for their intended term. Cheers

@ShaunFern is spot on. I second what he said.

I'll just add that there are many successful, ranking websites which have lots of affiliate links on their pages. It's hard to know why Google makes decisions to rank some, and not others, but in general, you want to keep your blog from being overly promotional.

That being said, if you see an opportunity for an affiliate link, and you think it'll help you make sales/income, don't be afraid to add it. If you have enough good content on the post to support multiple affiliate links (i.e. you are providing "value"), then go for it. Linking to good products is also a helpful thing to do for your reader, so as long as you feel it helps the reader, you're good to go.

Honestly, no one really knows what's the acceptable amount of affiliate links in a post. Different people say different numbers. I know, since I had this question once as well.

You certainly don't wanna have like more than 10 - 20 I'd say, that also not from any official source, just from what I read over the years. Even then, only have 1 - 3 of these high affiliate count posts maximum per say 100 blogs.

If you write an individual post for each product that will be much better. That way you can have even a 100 product article and be able to have 100 links to those products, instead of 100 affiliate links.

Hope this helps
