    There aren't any free tools I'm aware of but you should get Scrapebox. It's cheap and can do exactly what you need plus hundreds of helpful features.

    There is a tool called Mozbar which helps you to find out nofollow and dofollow links.

      Thanks alot for the tool, I tried to install the toolbar, when I tried the tool, I have difficulty to understand the output. Could you help me on this?

      From the Open Site Explorer

      In the "inbound link" tab, I have the result of " 0 " external followed link, but in the tab "compare link metrics" , I can see there are "9" external followed links, is there anyway to know the webpage of the 9 followed links?

      Thanks a lot for your help.

        Through this tool you can see the dofollow and nofollow links from existing links or internal links of the websites. If you want to see the dofollow and nofollow backlinks you can log into ahrefs website.

      Thanks alot all...

      The recommendation from DivyaRai on ahref works as expected, it looks like on the free version it only allow 3 reports, don't know wheter we can have more than 3 reports on the free version by deleting some reports or after sometime they will allow us to analyse more website.

      Another question on the backlinks tho...
      I saw some backlinks have this.... target="_blank"... Does this code indicate any nofollow in nature? Anyone can share their view on this is highly appreciated, tx alot.

        No you have to pay for more reports on ahrefs.


        Backlinks having rel=nofollow tells the search engine bot not to crawl those pages. Hence its considered as nofollow links.

    Install search status add-on in your firefox browser. It is also a good tool to identify nofollow and do follow links.

    Check out free WebMeUp backlink tool: WebMeUp backlink tool - link checker with fastest growing index

    I use the tool for checking my site links and it works pretty well. In addition to checking follow/nofollow factor, it also analyzes each backlink against such factors as domain age, domain IP, Anchor text and more.

    I still have 1 question though on the code target(=)"_blank" ....Please ignore the (), the real code without the (), but if I type the code as it is in here, the warrior forum automatically add "nofollow" infront..
    I found this code in a lot of backlinks and have a strong feeling that this code is having the same nature as nofollow, can someone confirm the purpose of this target code ? Tx.
