I couldn’t understand the difference before. Thank you, it was very informative. At least, now I know how to protect my site

This is actually one of the better posts I have found to explain the nofollow and dofollow difference. Not only that but finally gave me more insight into why nofollow was even invented. thanks google

Just been doing some linking domain checks on my competitors, it is sooo frustrating to see them blatantly sniffing out high authority ‘do-follows’….while I grit my teeth on the high road and hope that google gives the white hat a break in the future!

This is very interesting post ,This is the perfect explanation and response to the writer who shared the Do-Follow comments post. I’m not dissing that individual, far from it. Hats off if they want to do it, but there are challenges to doing so with the major search engines that are battling spam and sites that are trying to find the loopholes. Read this post if you want to understand pros and cons. Thanks!

This is one of the most sensible and hype free posts that I’ve read on the subject of dofollow/nofollow. I feel that, as an ethical web marketer, you are always walking a spam tightrope. Then google starts shaking the rope…..

Great post on dofollow and nofollow concept.Due to huge spamming we have to use nofollow even though we like it or not.

I think that both are a very impotant tool to have and that everybody with a website they would like to promote should take advantage of these. after all free traffic is the best traffic. More on my blog.

Hi Anna

Sorry for not replying sooner but I didn’t see this. I can’t see any blogroll links on your blog but in general I wouldn’t be overly concerned as long as you are happy with the quality of the sites you are linking to. There are always extremes. A large number of blogroll links on every page of your blog could leak a lot of link juice for example, or if most of those blogroll links were reciprocated in the blogrolls of the other blogs that could look deceptive. If you are happy with the quality of the sites you link to and you think the links benefit your visitors then I wouldn’t worry about them unless you have some reason to.

Thanks for the advice on the email notification of comment replies. I keep meaning to look into that.

Regards
Alastair

One more question:

What about the ‘blogroll’ links? E.g. I have a large amount of categorised links to highly relevant websites on my Wordpress.com blog, and want it to stay that way. Which impression of my website does that give to the search engines?

A Wordpress blogroll/link collection is not automatically “nofollow” I suppose?

I am happy to pass ‘link juice’ to those websites because they are quality websites, that is why I link to them. But does that make my blog look ’spammy’ in the eyes of the robots?

Appreciate if you have time to reply to this comment but understand if you don’t… this is an old post after all.

Thanks.
