It depends. When someone is doing a real serious search, they will check the linked references, in which case they will visit TomsGuide if it's a cited reference. In contrast, when someone is doing a non-serious casual search, they typically won't visit the linked site. Overall, it will cut the visits by ~80%, but that takes us back to the early 2000s level of page hits, when good sites like TomsGuide could then still thrive.
