Why not just google the keywords you want and see what the first 10 in google have, that may give you an idea.

The first 10 in google are unlikely to be wordpress or blogger, do your research properly.

actually google says it's bad if you have more than 100 links on a single page... and besides the less links you have on the page the more value each link passes..

each post means links.. so if you have less posts the links will be stronger.. now count all the links you have and decide which is the best number of posts for you..

don't forget about the usability and don't let your visitors scroll too much

It's important that your website contains the targeted words which are also appearing in the links anchors but it is like an open road and you can write one single text line or add tens of long paragraphs. One thing is nearly certain nowadays, or at least about Google, is that unnecessary repetition of the words on pages will not change anything and it will not affect rankings.

For me, i doesn't matter whether you have only one post on your homepage. For as lon as it was regularly updated, indexing and crawling will not be a problem.

Imagine you're a visitor to your own web site and you land on the home page - what you, as a visitor, want to see?

Its depended on the subject of your website. For example if you have new website, of course you have about 40 links on the home page on your website. But in usual websites i suggest you to have about 15 links on the home page of your website. Less is better.

So 1 link must be best of all then!

What happens if your website has more than 15 pages? AND why does this very forum not have problems with 369 links on the home page?

Just think how well it would do though if you deleted 368 of those links
