Is Articlesbase Nofollow?

Heres a FIreFox plugin you can use to find out: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5687

Evita, sorry to sound dumbass but when you say nofollow do you mean that users can't click on your link? If so, have you tried anchor text?

Does Articles Base check and verify each article? If they don't, maybe you can put your info that you'd usually put in your resource box, in the article instead.

If the resource box in Articles Base is no follow, how're we supposed to build backlinks? >:O

Is the resource box on Ezine Articles, Go Articles, and Article Alley all no follow also or what?

ArticlesBase keeps changing it's mind on the NoFollow links in the resource box. However, it is quite common for article directories to place their own ads above your resource box and minimize click through rates.

One simple way around this to maximize your CTR by at least 20% is to lead up to the resoruce box links in the last paragraph below. For example if I was giving away a free ebook about acne I would have something like this as the last paragraph:

-----------------------
Last Paragraph:
As we wrap up this article about acne I want to let you know that there is a link below in my resource box that shows you how to get a free ebook to cure your acne as well as a lot of other resources that can help you live with clear skin and look fantastic. Make sure you click that link as soon as you can.

-- ARTICLE ADS --

Resource Box:
Get your FREE copy of our exciting "Guaranteed Acne Cure in 24 hours" ebook now and access our other exciting information about curing your acne.
-----------------------

By pre-selling your link you are essentially telling them to skip the ads and go to your link.

Another method I use that has given me massive CTR is to make the resource box part of my article. For example:

-----------------------
Last Paragraph:
So as you can see there are many option for curing your acne and you don't have to live with blemished skin every day of your life and there are ways to live with beautiful skin... ARTICLE CONTINUED BELOW

-- ARTICLE ADS --

Resource Box:
Finally, We would like to give you a FREE ebook called "How To Cure Your Acne in 24 Hours" as well as show you other fantastic ways you can live your live with blemish free skin. There is limited supply of these ebooks so get your free copy now before they are all gone.
-----------------------

With this second method you are making your resource box part of your actual article and forcing them to skip the ads to continue reading the article. This has provided me with up to 55% CTR on many of my article and over 1.5 Million article views on all my campaigns.

Hope you find that little tip useful.

Thanks all,
when you do article marketing more so for links than for traffic, then nofollow
of course makes it not worthwhile to use such an article directory...

So...
I spend my time writing and researching. The directory not only place their own adsense links just above the links in my resource box, which would greatly reduce my CTR, AND my links do not count as far as SEO goes because they are made nofollow.

Would find it hard to post any articles to such a place. I would really feel like someone is trying to make a fool out of me.
