No-Follow Links

14 years ago

I don't know about no-follow links in google, but they carry some weight with Yahoo. Just this past Sunday, I made a post to a blog that uses the no-follow attribute with links to a new site I just built and wound up with two links showing up in Yahoo.

Thanks

I don't know if I would waste much time with nofollow either way when there are plenty of good dofollow opportunities out there. I will however be curious how your experiment turns out

Also finding the service that you can get the nofollow links will be really easy and free. Why don't you just build them?

Thanks

If you plan on doing this for awhile you are better having a range of keywords and mix them in along with your main keyword. Don't do anything that looks too artificial. Would a site that got natural links have the referring site link to them with the exact same keywords?

I'm working on so many other things that I don't have the time to do it myself, but If I find someone to hire for this at a reasonable rate, then I think I will still go with it and give it a try. I build only do-follow links, so it may help the site look more natural.

Thanks

Think like the search engines and be one with the search engines i.e. if Google weren't counting nofollow links they would be discounting probably one of the most natural link building system out there (blog commenting). Therefore I highly doubt the nofollow makes any difference outside of onsite optimization.

  I agree with this point of view.

Google has said that they don't pay much attention to the nofollow atribute any more. I think it was Matt Cuts that I heard say it, but I don't remember who it was now. So as I understand it, nofollow may not give you as much as a dofollow link does, but they are still valuable. Not only that, but how natural would it be if you only had dofollow links, and had no nofollow links. That would be about as natural as snow in the middle of summer. I have seen it, but I only remember it happening once. And i have lived nearly 60 years.

However Search Engines do not pay attention to the nofollow and they do not have link juice and not help in ranking but it does not mean that the are useless because they can diver traffic a lt toward you site and also sometimes they can also indexed by search engine by mistaken as crawlers are not so accurate in crawling as claimed.

This is what I'm wondering though. If I add more no-follow links, will my site gain more trust due to it being more natural? So many of us out here build only do-follow links through the various WSO offers etc... I am going to start adding a small percentage of no-follow and see if it gains more google trust.
