Hello friends,

What is dofollow and nofollow link..?

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. Though some time back Google made it clear that they don’t consider nofollow link attributes but weightage of such links are really less. Even though, it’s a good practice to use Nofollow link attribute to those link, where you don’t want to pass link-juice.
Dofollow links allow google (all search engines) 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. This means when you are linking to any website or page, use the targeted keyword as anchor text.

As its name represent, do follow link means it allows the search engine bot to follow the link and get an idea about the website. Also it passes link juice through that link which is vital for search engine ranking.

No follow link doesn't allow the search bot to follow the link and won't pass any link juice.

As per my personal experience, when i comment on no follow blogs, i get positive impact on search engine ranking. So nowadays, no follow and do follow link have no big difference.

Do follow links pass the reputation and the link juice while nofollow do not pass the reputation and the link juice. Quality Dofollow backlinks contribute more in google ranking than the nofollow link.
