INTERNET MARKETING

Hey! I've actually been thinking about this for the past couple of days. Are there any advantages/disadvantages to having your blog do follow or no follow? What exactly are the benefits or costs I could expect from each? I've grown quite familiar with SEO over the past couple years, but this is one thing I've always been curious about. It seems after a period of about 3 weeks, I start to receive comments with people trying to link to my blog, and sometimes I wonder if this hurts or helps me.

Any tips out there?

All of my blogs are no-follow. In fact, since all of them are promoting a product of some-sort I could really care less about someone else getting some link juice from them.

Maybe if I was utilizing my sites differently I would consider going to a do-follow structure, but even then, it doesn't really concern me all that much.

You're going to fail. If you're afraid of failure then you do not belong in the Internet Marketing Business. Period.

I have several blogs, but they are all in different niches. In other words, I don't use a blog network for SEO purposes.

However, I do like to comment on others' blogs, and prefer them to be do-follow. Therfore, I make all of mine do-follow. My thinking is that it wouldn't be fair to want other blogs to be do-follow if mine is no-follow...if you follow.

All the best,
Michael

A combination of both no-follow and do-follow would be great i think.
