I've got a page that links out to a bunch of songs / tabs for beginner guitarists. In total, the page has about 400 outbound links which seems like a lot I know, however I can't really justify removing any of the links because I feel each one serves a purpose.


Categorize everything

Since you have 400 songs, I'm sure you can group them into categories. Perhaps group them by type of music. For example, maybe 100 songs are rap and 100 are rock, 100 are dance, and 100 are jazz. Then you can have 4 pages each with 100 songs of one genre.

If that doesn't break things down enough, maybe categorize them by artist.

But if you really want to break things down the easy way, sort the songs by the first letter of the song name. Then you'll have 26 separate pages, one for each letter.

There are so many ways you can divide up your songs but it is important that you do. I understand it requires the user to make one extra click but at the same time, he/she won't have to scroll through countless pages looking for a particular title.
