Nofollow Tag Abuse

Remove the nofollow in your brain

August 2nd, 2007

It is time to resurrect Barry’s blog post about paddling! He discussed tactics worthy of paddling, number 8 is “If you ‘nofollow’ all outgoing links from your web site then get ready for a paddling.”

More and more I am seeing references (backlinks) to information on my web sites in blog posts and static pages but the backlinks contain the “nofollow” tag!

Come on people! Remove the “nofollow” you have between your commonsense and greed portion of you brain. The next popping sound we here should be your head coming out of your ass! Using information/original content in a positive fashion from someone Else’s web site deserves every bit of recognition you can muster - this includes an uninhibited link!
