Do Follow and No Follow Forums

by Mr Money Maker
7 replies
Hi all !!...I was wondering how many of you are closely watching which of the business forums online are taking part in either a - Do Follow or No Follow policy for social backlinks....and which forums would you pick as one of the top 3 forums for Do Follow.
I do know a lot of forums are going with No Follow policy these days.
So who do you find as the favorite in Do Follow links?
I do have my choices, but I won't mention any here....so not to make people think I am advertising any forum of my own...
But I am wondering what people think.
I have been away for a while, so maybe this has already been asked on here already. But I have been wondering what people thought for the past couple of weeks.
Thanks Mr Money Maker

    It is probably due to the fact that do follow and no follow mean nothing... You should be posting your links anyplace related and anyplace possible (I did not say spam).

    ArticlesBase.com is no follow - Guess what? top listings
    ClipMarks.com is no follow - Guess What? top listings
    Digg.com is no follow - Guess What? top listings

    Need I go on ??

    Well it does mean something if you want high Google rankings....which are far more important than social backlinking in my opinion.
    85% of all my sales are from my many websites ranked on top of Googles front pages these past 10 years. less than 15 % from social backlinking.
    So do follow is important in my eyes.

      Some nofollow links could help you. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with just having 500 dofollow links, but a few nofollows here and there will add a natural peppering to your soup. Nobody knows whether google really ignores nofollow; I've read (on this forum) that people who get links from Wikipedia notice an improvement in their ranking.

      Besides, a nofollow forum might see a dramatic drop in spam and turn nofollow off for posts of a certain age or something. It's all beneficial.

      You can get top listings no matter if a site is do follow or no follow.. You missed the entire point of my post. You can waste your time looking for do follow and only posting on do follow but you are losing sales by doing that ...

    Digg will get your low to medium comp kw on googles first page rather quickly . For a relatively new site this type of traffic is crucial while you are getting your own site juiced up.

    Well There are scripts out there that, show if a site is do follow or no follow...it's not hard to figure on. So I don't waste time hunting down sites.
    Infact I already know which sites to use.
    I do a lot with guitar, and rock,,blues and jazz guitar lessons online and have some of the top rank websites in the world...I also have a few making money websites.
    But I still believe do follow is far better.
    And my way of thinking no follow is ok....for social backlinks.
    As far as Digg goes....I think no follow will hurt them if Google make more changes as they have done these past few months.
    I also think the day will come when Google will charge to rank all websites, much like getting your ad in the Phone book in your local town.
    That day is coming soon.
    I also think when that happens, no more worries about keywording and ect...for higher rankings.
    Google is in business....it's only a matter of time and they will charge everyone.
    And in my opinion, maybe that would be a better system. NO more bull...and keyword stuffing.
