Hi guys,
I want to ask that Why Google should give first preference on Dofollow list rather than of Nofollow list?
Any thoughts?

  • Preference? Care to tell where you read that?

    Google crawls both types of links but excludes "nofollow" from the link graph (in the sense you don't get backlinking credit but nevertheless you get referral traffic from them).
  • It's generally believed that Google "ignores" nofollow links. Bing / Yahoo is supposed to as well, but that's not really as clear-cut.

    I'll still include NF backlinks since, at the very least, they help my link diversity.

  • Better try to make ONLY do-follow blogs, NF are a waste of time
  • You need both.

    Natural linkbuilding involves both do-follow and no-follow. If the majority of the sites on the web are no-follow and all you have are do-follow links, good chance you are gonna get slapped by the big G.

    People put too much emphasis on do-follow. If you want to build PR, just create good content that people want to actually link to.

    • Agreed. If you want to appear natural, at least throw in some nofollow links.

      Although a lot of us who focus on smaller niche sites are going to have a hard time getting enough natural links to rank where we'd like to rank. Good content isn't enough, most of the time.

  • do follow links are those who helps in increasing the rank of particular web page.
    nofollow is shown by pink in colour.
  • Focus on do follow links and throw a no follow link now and then.
  • Google just ignores no-follow links. Only do-follow links will help you for your SERP and get a higher PR.
  • Dofollow backlinks is more important but, nofollow links must not be underestimated. Backlinks are not only for Google pr it also very useful to grab referral traffic. Also, Do follow links on the other hand are regular links like the ones you see at the end of this article.
