Blogs - no follow or do follow?

[sweetkendi]

Well, I'm kinda new in this, I just want to know the difference between no follow and do follow blog, and how will you going to determine if the blog is a no follow or a do follow.

Thanks..

You can see the past comments on that blog.

Click the View >> Page Source in your firefox.

Scroll through the HTML source of that page and see if the comment links have been appended with rel=nofollow attribute or not.

If you see it then it is a no follow blog

If you don't see it then it is a do follow blog.

Thanks.

View the source page using this command key ctrl + U then
used the command key ctrl + F to look for the word attribute
rel="nofollow", if this word exist then it's a no follow, but if it's
not it's the vice versa.

If you are using Firefox then highlight the area of code you want to look at, click right and then click on View Selection Source Then you will be able to see whether the microformat rel-"nofollow" has been included in the link

View Source page is best idea IMO. I use that for checking do-follow or no-follow blogs.

DON.

Dofollow links are counted as backlinks which are good factors for increasing your site's link popularity while nofollow links are not.

Try to download this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/321
This tool will automatically highlight those links that are nofollow.

I doFollow comment links on my Beautiful Beta blog. I only ask for relevant comments, comments like "Excellent article or Great post" will not be approved.

Thanks,

The dofollow movement is kind of a backlash against all those nofollow links that are worthless as far as search engines are concerned. Dofollow links impart pagerank to the link target whereas nofollow ones do not. So if you're trying to build backlinks, commenting on dofollow blogs is a strategy practised by many.

You can see the "no follow" in their page source. Put Ctrl F and type no follow. then you can find it. One more option is you can download the plugin to find whether it s a do follow or not. The add on name is "search status"
