I noticed that my paid listings/ads on Yelp are nofollows. Is this becoming more common on these types of sites? I can understand it for non-paid links, but it seems wrong for advertisers. If you're familiar with Yelp this is nothing like text link ads.
Wikipedia is using nofolow to...it is a sad world.
Allow me not to agree with you at this point Jaan. I say so, while I am wondering how could Wikipedia protect herself from all those PR obsessed spammers?Originally Posted by incrediblehelp
Yeah I know what you mean. I just dont agree with it, because WikiP did it because Google wanted them to.
Why did Google want them to? Think about it man. To protect our rankings from spammers. I appreciate that to be honest.
Well as you might know I am not a big fan of the nofollow. The web was built on links, not putting condoms on them. Now I understand that spamming WikiP is a bad thing, but I prefer stopping it with editors like they did in the past.
This just goes back to the spamming and paid link discussions. I feel Google should be doing this work, not us as website owners.
