Hmm, seems like from what I`ve read elsewhere when this question was asked it`s more a Wordpress thing where they introduced it thinking that "external nofollow" was for all links to other sites, whereas "nofollow" was just for internal links.

As it happens the consensus of opinon is that both mean the same thing, ie, no follow to all links, whether internal, or external, so there`s no actual purpose in creating "external nofollow."

Anyway, on one of my pages on my sites, Our Home Tools - Tool King Distributors, I decided I don`t want any of the links to be followed, since most of them are to an affiliate site.

So, I placed the tag - <META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="INDEX, NOFOLLOW"> after the <title> tag, but, when I came to look at `properties` in Firefox the links remained as `same window` rather than `nofollow.` I then moved that tag and placed it immediately below <head> but still the same. Am I placing it in the wrong position?
