I do think that this thread does stand as testament to just how much mis-information and general "expertness" there is, and of course the very low level of competency that abounds in the people who republish and corrupt even further the mis-information, which again this thread ably demonstrates, while these same people never accept that they might just be wrong.
Of course the events that have occurred with Google results over the last three weeks do serve to demonstrate just how the "experts" do have it wrong, and the "advice" they have been giving for so long is now (finally) having the exact OPPOSITE EFFECT. Yet do these "experts" offere any kind of apology?
No, quite the reverse in fact! They start suggest how to get out of the mess by telling their reading audience that the way forward is to do ALL of the things that the TRULY knowledgable regarding Search have been advocating since search engines first appeared on the Internet.

It's a shame only three or four of us will read your post...

**chrishirst** · 05-22-2012, 06:04 PM

Which of course will not include the ones who need to.

We all know that Do-follow links are the only links which are considered by the google as a backlink in calculating the website reputation/ranking. But after the penguin update, no-follow links became important along with the do-follow. No-follow links can help our search engine optimization process become natural looking one and help us from Google penalty for over optimization.

I say only this on this topic - if you are going about your business building links for your website.
You request a link or you respond to a link request and your link partner is a website that's been around for a good amount of time, has good content and is a website you want to link with.
DO NOT accept that link request and then put a No Follow tag in your code because what you are saying is "Your website is ****" or I think it might be a bad neighbourhood.
Now I'm more than happy to share links with a No Follow tag but when one webmaster thinks that they are being clever by adding a No Follow tag while you don't it MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL and is needlessly done because you're proving nothing.
Happy to take advice if I'm wrong from those of you who have some idea.

"nofollow" is a value for the rel(ated) attribute of anchor and link elements NOT a tag.

Oh and if you pick your "link partners" using the right criteria, "nofollow" rel attributes or not shouldn't even come into the equation.

So if you had 100 PR10 dofollow backlinks that are of high quality it would really help out your SERPs where as if they were nofollow they're just normal ol' links that people may happen to click. "

I cannot possibly FATHOM the amount of incorrect information made in this post. You my fine sir, have made the worst post in the worst thread here on this forum.

please share the simple answer of it.

Thank you.

Do follow is better but it's important to know that no follow still helps a lot.

There is no "dofollow" CAN none OF YOU UNDERSTAND that???

Just because an anchor element does not have a "nofollow" does NOT, NOT, NOT mean that that link will pass any value to the target URL.

There is no wonder you all complain about SEO and marketing being Soooo difficult.

For goodness sake get a clue!!!!!

There's a bit in the bible about turning swords into ploughshares. I expect that to happen first.

I think I'd prefer them to join the beast and the false prophet by being cast into the lake of fire and brimstone

No follow links are generally not accepted by the Google and they can not make good source of the site traffic.
But they are the back links for the sites and also if we only try to make the do follow links for the site then there may be chance of getting spam awarded by Google.

**Mysocialfansite** · 06-14-2012, 01:00 PM

Wow. Its all about marketing People. Yea you'll have a better ranking/lead with links but when it comes to selling your product you must market. so forget link building for a second because you could have 1 million links but 0 customers. Equally build links and market via smm
