    Which of the following website design guidelines have been recommended by Google?

    a. Having a clear hierarchy and text links
    b. Every page should be reachable from at least one static text link
    c. If the site map is larger than 100 or so links, you should break the site map into separate pages
    d. Keeping the links on a given page to a reasonable number (fewer than 100)
    e. Use less than 30 images or graphics per page

    I believe all of them are recommended by Google.

    However, my main index page has well over 1300 links on it in clear violation of suggestion #4, yet Google has all 4000+ of my pages indexed and re-indexes them almost as fast as I revise them. Several of my auxiliary pages have in excess of 100 links, yet they are all indexed also.

    This is the basic set of recommendations but they don't mean very much. Check out Google's recommendations on Quality.
