Will this affect SEO in a negative way?

Hi Karl,

Generally assuming that you are linking out to authorities in your niche and citing when properly this shouldn't be an issue. Remember to use the no-follow tag appropriately.

Finally, just make sure you aren't scraping as this would probably cause the largest seo issue.

Thanks

Nah, again a SEO question.
Read this (A new Search Engine) This may be the main organic traffic source if you are from USA.
Outgoing links make the article loyal and worthy of attracting links back to your one.

It's a tech directory website, that will contain a lot of outgoing links to big, authoritative websites (such as techspot, techcrunch, tomshardware, techradar etc.).

It will have around 100 pages with roughly 1700-2000 outgoing links. Yes I know, it's a lot. The idea is to gather a lot of tech-related information in a single place.

So my question is, will this affect my search engine traffic in a bad way? How will this play out do you think?

I need to know before I go any further down this road.

Thank you,

If the links are relevant and the site has good engagement then it shouldn't be a problem.
