SEO - Google's perspective on backlinking?

Hey guys,

I really recently was told that Google was going to essentially not count links that appear to be "manually" submitted - and that any manually submitted links should be "no-follow" links. Apparently they only want natural links to your WebPages from external sources, and that if they detect manual linking that those particular links would hold no value. Can someone tell me if there is any validity to this? I am fairly new to SEO and just started learning about the recent changes to peoples' backlinking tactics and broader strategies - but now I'm getting confused as how to successfully optimize for rankings. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    Uh..., links built by average non-IMers are manually built.

      Yes, but there is difference between manual and manual.

      See, you can get crappy signature links from softwares as well. Or you can make them manually, just like you have done.

      The "other" kind of manual linkbuilding is a whole different stuff.

        I am following this member and what he want to explain is if you think you want to do manual link building then go for editorial links otherwise if you think you want to create a forum profile link manually Then for Big G its still same no matter you made it via software or manual...

        My 2 cents to further explain what my other friend just said and tried to explain you

    DO manual SEO but for only Web 2.0 Properties, Article Directories, Press Release. Rest of the software can handle the task.

    Whether manual or tool, it boils down to how you execute your job.
