    Interesting fact that they only count sitewides as one link, but I wonder how they decide which link to count? Is it always the homepage? The one with more page authority?

    But they don’t always count them as one link, I’m sure. I’d much rather err on the side of caution & remove or nofollow those sitewide ‘functional’ links as much as possible to absolutely minimise the possibility of any of them having a negative impact on a site’s search profile.

This information brings up a point, if that site has sitewide link’s Google may not even count the link placed in our article. it could be a complete waste of time.
