Hello,
As I mentioned in the title of the topic
I want to know If I do have different internal pages on my home pages
Lets say like 30 pages from my homepage
And what I know that PageRank will flow from the home page to the internal ones
so my questions is, If I do have many internal pages on homepages will that hurt the rank of the home page?
Thank you

    By "different internal pages on my home pages", do you mean links to your internal pages?

      You are mistaking internal, even outbound, links for leaking PR from the page they
      are on. There's no such thing. A common misconcepcion it seems. Seriously.
      How many links have you seen on amazon.com? I lost count after 200...

      The page of origin gives PR to the pages it links to. That does not subtract
      from the PR of that page.

      What will subtract PR from a page, is if google suspects you selling links
      to shmooze another site's pages PR. Internal links would never fall
      into this category.

      Internal links are golden, and one of the best links you can get. People want
      to know where to start link building, right then and there.

      Sure, people come up with all sorts of crapola about how many links to have
      on a page. Doesn't matter. You can have as many as you want. It's
      your site. Google gives guidelines but only that. Guidelines. When they
      give a guideline, has nothing to with anything else. Like I said. I dare anyone
      who says the number matters, to count the links on the homepage of
      amazon, yahoo, even the WF.
