How to know if the blog Dofollow or Nofollow?

12 years ago

Hi,

I think there's an extension for FireFox somewhere, but personally I simply take a look at the page's source code... Look at the links for individual nofollow attributes, and in the header for a global one.

Seb.

Thanks

Do you use Facebook ? Then you can make money just by inviting people to a Facebook group ! It's called the Instant Income System. How cool is that?

Try not to use plugins, they're not always accurate. Just look for some links on the page, right click the page, view page source and search the anchor text for the link. If there's rel nofollow tag near the link then it's no follow.

That would take a LONG time. I've never had an issue with "Search Status," which is what I use if I'm manually checking PR. (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir.../searchstatus/)

Or, if the OP is willing to spend a little money, just get Scrapebox. You'll thank yourself for doing so when you're checking the dofollow / nofollow status of 20,000+ posts with the press of a button.

Thanks

Use "SearchStatus" firefox add-on. Go the page and then right click on the SearchStatus icon in the add-on bar and select "Highlight No Follow Links"

Seo2ever,

The plugin mentioned for firefox works however the most accurate way is to check the page source. Not sure why you are asking this but I just wanted to mention that no-follow links can also benefit your SEO initiatives. They will not count toward your Page Rank however they will help in a number of other ways. They can improve your backlink profile by offering diversification. If you have all do-follow links to your website, this doesn’t look natural. They also help drive traffic to your website. Unless the only reason you are link building is to increase your Page Rank. People still click on the links, you are still able to offer valuable information to readers who may convert on your site later on, and you can still get exposure for your website.

This post offers a lot of good reasons why no-follow links are still beneficial,

For backlink farmer, Firefox extensions such as seoquake should be installed in their browser.
The easy way is checking the link manually. Select the link in a page, right click "View Selection Source".

Again, why do this when a plugin will do the exact same thing automatically?
