I understand that having a sitemap which links directly to individual product information pages (i.e. bypassing the navigation system) is good a good way to get pages into the Search Engines quickly.

Therefore how many links would you suggest on each page of a sitemap.

Do spiders ignore links after a certain number? or do they blacklist you as a link farm if a page contains too many internal links?

I imagine some of you with huge sites containing thousands of pages have already thought about this so thought I'd ask.

Thanks
