A lot of out bound links a bad thing?

Hello

I run a website and one of the chief aims of it is to be a resource to my niche market.

I have a large number of outward links and a small number of in bound links, though I am giving attention to this

I heard somewhere that having a large number of outward bound links is a bad thing.

Can someone tell me if this is true please?

Thank you

Richard & Margaret

Usually anything to do with SEO I have no problem understanding, but you've lost me. I'm assuming by inbound links you mean links on other site pointing your site.

But I'm not fully sure I understand what you mean by "outward bound". Are you meaning links on your site that point to other sites? If so, this is not really going to hurt you unless you've got a low amount of content or high amount of affiliate links (in other words, an affiliate site with no real content).
