Do Follow

July 22nd, 2007 by Remy Blaettler

It was about time for some Blog-Maintenance again. I installed the “Do Follow” Plugin that was recommended by Sam in a comment to one of my earlier posts.

It basically removes the “nofollow” attribute in all Wordpress comments, which might help spread some news. On the other hand, I heard that most seach engines are not looking for this attribute anyway, but who knows?

Then, I finally got a Feedburner Feed setup. Now I can WATCH you…

    As long as Google minds it’s a must… thanks for the help :-)

    A few days ago I read that Google has counted links with nofollow, but they had not the same weight as other links.

    I guess it does not hurt to remove them in any case.

    Irgendwann wird das mit dem nofollow auch wieder verschwinden. gegen blogspam gibt ja genügend andere Methoden.

    I do-follow links now on my Aussie housewife blog. After a long time procrastinating I have seen the importance of dofollow and using the “do follow” principal to help keep the Internet better connected. http://www.reallyreally.net – Take a look at my dofollow blog and feel free to comment. Thank you, Regards Bree.

    “No follow” links do not count in search engines for the ranking of the linked page. That´s the only reason. But your decission to use do follow is good, because bloogers shouldn´t do the job of searchengines.
