No Follow Bleed Through - Fact or Fiction?
- SEO |
The theme of the article was that google will sometimes choose to ignore the "No Follow" attribute of some links and count them as traditional links as it sees fit.
It led one to believe that links on authority sites were often treated this way.
It seems to make sense to me. The whole No Follow thing is really just a voluntary thing after all. There's nothing that can "force" any search engine to hand links in a certain way just by adding a label to it any more than you can prevent a search engine spider from reviewing a page with your robots.txt file.
Anyway, does anyone have any info on this concept? I'd like to research it further, but am drawing blanks and searching for it is just pulling up hords of general SEO content.
