SEO Tip for the Day 1

No-follow links :::

No-follow links are mostly considered as not passing any value by most of the people. But in fact it is widely believed by many SEO specialists that no-followed links do get some value in some cases. Just as Google may ignore some followed links considering them spam, it can count some of the no-follow links considering them as important. Some of the parameters that can be considered while evaluating a no-followed links are:

  • High Domain and page authority of the linking source
  • Quality of all other domains it is linking to
  • Quality of link profile of target domain where the link is pointing
  • Whether all the out-going links are followed or no-followed on linking domain
  • Value of an Anchor text passed if used widely on no-follow links
Therefore, though followed links are more desirable, we should not steer clear of the rel="nofollow" links as they can pass some ranking values as well as click-through traffic.
