Hi,

I have came to the point where I need to know that exactly what could be the results of have NO FOLLOW links for your website?
I know no follow links just help in web traffic because Google crawl them but does not give value

I really appreciate your suggestions.

Thanks In Advance...

what do you think? I ask because you've specified you have an expertise in SEO.

In all fairness, many experts will disagree about this subject.

no follow cannot really help your websites' promotion, at least not in SEO manor. no follow, can help you in promoting SMO, and all of your forums, social media and conversation marketing. still, you can sign your name and brand with your website URL. it will bring you better exposure but no incoming links.

nofollow does seem to do something for SEO - I created a link on a random site with a made-up word as the anchor text. That site is now #1 for the word, with the site I linked to as #2. So Google does recognise the anchor text being relative to the linked site, but I have no idea what value it gives it. I'm guessing it will be a value so tiny that it's not worth the wear/tear on the keyboard to type your address, but perhaps Google are getting so good at spotting spam links/behaviour that they're beginning to feel confident in giving a value to non-spammy comments. I doubt it though, if a webmaster wants to link to a site without promoting it, surely they should have that control.

Another thing it's worth noting is that Google looks for a natural link profile - they'd expect there to ba a large proportion of nofollow links.

Yep have always stressed this fact. Instantly getting 1000 followed links from high PR looks suspect.

Remeber, Google is very very smart.
