What is No Follow links?

[kristina]

Hi,

Please suggest me what is no follow link.

Where link is not followed. Rel=nofollow is applied to no follow sites,blogs and forums where you backlinks wont be followed.

It's a directive that tells SE bots not to crawl, give no importance and give no out PR percentage (link juice).. It is associated with the code above. For complete illustration: < a href = " domain[dot]com " title = " link title " rel = " directive " > where directive could mean nofollow, external and others.

NoFollow means google will not consider it as a backlinks.nofollow will only generate traffic.

the rel="NoFollow" link attribute is used only for search engine spiders, once a sipder hits a link with the nofollow attribute won't follow it ... it's quite simple, also if you are building back-links for your site a no-follow link will get you (maybe) only traffic not ranks

cheers

A nofollow link is the one where in the source code, you will see a nofollow tag.

Nofollow link is not considered to be a backlink: such link do not give any kind of benefits to the linked site in terms of SEO or PR.

when nofollow is applied to your site other linking sites is not getting any benefit with regards to link juice.

No follow links are just traffics for your site..It couldn't count as a backlinks for your site and it doesn't share PR juice..
