What is do-follow and no-follow links in seo? -->

diggdirectory · 02-13-2014, 12:56 AM

do-follow - those sites are allowing link post

no-follow - sites which not allowed link post

WildRazor · 02-14-2014, 01:57 AM

in short, do-follow links matter for your site while the No-follow are not much of a use

do-follow and no-follow links are SEO Term used especially optimizing keywords for Google. When Google spider crawl any website he follows do-follow link and ignore no-follow links to visit the destination urls. In short Do-follow provides more link-juice for SEO and it is more important than that of no-follow.

What Is A Follow Link?

To really understand what is going on with follow vs. no follow links, we need to provide a bit of background about how links work in the realm of SEO. When a site page gets an inbound link, which is a hyperlink pointing to that page, the page gets a small SEO boost. Think of a link as a point, and the more links you have, the more points. More Points = Winning, like Charlie Sheen.

Google takes note of these points, watching how many inbound links a page has and from what sites. Google figures, hey, if a lot of people are linking to a certain page, it must be a really good page! Let’s give preference in our search engines to that page over others of a similar topic so we can easily deliver the very best pages to our search engine users.

Google created a metric called PageRank to calculate the link points. Many SEO folks refer to link points as “link juice.” The link juice flows through sites and into new sites through hyperlinks. The more reputable the site, the bigger boost of link juice the linked-to site gets. Getting a link from the New York Times or BBC is pure gold!

Now we can define a follow link – Follow links are links that count as points, pushing SEO link juice and boosting the page rank of the linked-to sites, helping them go higher in the SERPs as a result.

What Is A No Follow Link?

A no follow link is a link that does not count as a point in the page’s favor, does not boost PageRank, and doesn’t help a page’s placement in the SERPs. No follow links get no love. Theirs is a sad and lonely life.

A no follow link is created with the nofollow link HTML tag, which looks like this:

<a href=”http://www.website.com/” rel=”nofollow”>Link Text</a>

The nofollow tag is basically a notice sign for search engines saying “don’t count this.”

Isn’t that just mean and terrible? Why would anyone do such a thing? There’s a reason for the nofollow attribute, and boy is it a good one!

Do-follow links are those links which comes from other do-follow or authority sites and no-follow links are comes from no-follow sites. Do-follow links provides link juice to our website which is very helpful to improve rank in search engine.

Do-Follow Allowed Post Website Links.

No-Follow Not Allowed Post Website Links. That's it.

jhony117 · 03-24-2014, 04:54 AM

Both links are best. Both give back-link for your website. But do-follow link create a great impression and no-follow create good impression.

Do follow links are better than no follow links. Always make a dofollow link for your website. dofollow links can be crawled by googles and also by humans.but no follow links can only clicked by human not by search engine so make dofollow links to get more visitors.

ankit009 · 04-05-2014, 02:09 AM

Nofollow links attributes do not allow search engine bots to follow link.That means if the website owner is linking back to you with Nofollow attributes, it does not pass on link juice. Only Humans will be able to follow the links.

Dofollow links allow Google to follow them and reach our website. Giving us link juice and a backlink. If a webmaster is linking back to you with this link both Search Engine and Humans will be able to follow you. The best way to give someone Dofollow love is allowing keyword in the anchor text.
