Do follow comment backlinks BLAST

in blogging, blogging tips, do follow blogs

do follow page rank

Well I WAS enjoying a nice peaceful afternoon and did some little tweaks on this new theme when for some crazy reason I decided to run link diagnosis. Well it’s a cool little app to get a report on your links and if they are followed or  worthless. When I totally became convinced of a FACT I have long known and will share it with you right now.
Basically if a blogger has a blog that has NO FOLLOW they are a scumbag and I don’t just mean the fact that they are  just because their links are no followed. I mean the way they REALLY  are because I was looking a list of  the links to this blog and here is what I found.

1 Without a doubt the bloggers that have do follow blogs are 100% cooler people and actually are better bloggers.The most common denominator of the no follow people  is that  they usually are legends in their own mind as if their lame ass links are something people really want.

Wake up your really not that important.

TwitterKING Dude your a GOOF :)
2 I may do them like they do people and when someone leaves a comment and I go check their blog and if it’s not DO FOLLOW I just pop back and delete that MOFO LOL:)

Nah now that would be to cold blooded but it does pay to hang with people that have do follow blogs and NOT bother with NO FOLLOW GOOFS :) Let them sell their scam ass ebooks to some new jacks that don’t know any better. I tripped out on this one wannabe make money blogger  actually turned his comments OFF. I told him to get a GRIP and now no one would be coming to your BLOG SON :) LOL
3 So skip all the negativity :) This post is to liven up the do follow movement and to add your blog to the comment section. But here’s the catch.
4 The person above you go to their blog if it’s do follow leave a comment, that’s it just take a minute to visit the other person that’s all I ask :)
5 I’m having a great day and I’m off to watch my son do some skateboarding at a local skate board park :) SO add your links but please visit the person above you :) The first person to leave a comment doesn’t have to do anything because you visited me :)
6 Thanks :) I really like this theme I was almost ready to buy thesis :)
Have some FUN  talk some smack and let me know if your ready to BOYCOTT all no follow blogs.
to be honest unless it’s mashable or some blog on that level I don’t even bother :) Thanks

It looks like I’m first so I’ll comment on every do-follow blog that comments below me. I’m subscribed so I’ll know.

All of my blogs are do-follow along with other cool things like commentluv, keywordluv, top commenters widget etc..

Dang!
How did I get stuck going to Brian’s blog?
Oh, that’s right – it’s because he has the coolest blogs on the interwebs!
His one blog I even get to disagree with him. We don’t just talk smack, I am keeping count of how many slaps he gets when I do meet him in person *insert evil laugh*!

I have the option on my blog to NoFollow or DoFollow per comment.

Yep! I have given people NoFollow because they have NoFollow.

I don’t always do this but, I was getting tired of some people wanting to suck PR off others while they never wanted to give back. To many searches coming in with “dofollow” so, I have cut out the juice suckers!

I’ve learned that the only links I want to give DoFollow are ones that are paying me. Not with cash but, with good content, ideas, or a little link luvin.

I also do not want to tell the SE’s that I approve of a site (by giving dofollow) if I do not know the person is going to be around & not turn into a scum site that I am linking to.

So that is my mini rant for this post. Hope you enjoy my PMS as much as everyone else around me. LOL

Wow!!! That was a nasty post. First thing first, I have a nofollow blog (you can delete my comment or attach a nofollow attribute). I’ve a question for ya. Were you a dofollow blog in the initial day of blogging? If not why? Sometime people do worry about their PR. It is always advicable to make your blog a dofollow when you get PR3 or above. Anyway I’m making my blog a dofollow this week (I’ve already announced it. Dont believe me,you can check my blog one week later). I comment only to those blogs where I think I’ve something to say. I’ve my own way to give a link love to my friends (by weekly link love party and friendship award post).
Happy blogging!!!

Arrrg. I am feeling like I was attacked with a machine gun lol. My blog is nofollow mostly coz most of my commentators are non-bloggers :-( Infact 95% of my readers are non bloggers.

But also coz its a war zone there at my side lol. Many comments are either swearing the government or even Bin Laden haha. But for those who have a blog, I have the top commentators which is dofollow. And there is also commentluv plugin installed so that bloggers who comment have their last post more exposed.

I would like if there is a plugin however with which I can easily make someone comment dofollow and nofollow in one click while approving..

Any plugin developer around please?? Do it for me :P

This way I will be able to make bloggers and friends like you have dofollow while those using “Buy cheap viagra made in antartica” or whatever go nofollow.

Check out “Nofollow case by case” in a Google search. That’s the one I’m currently using.

Although I usually don’t bother to make links nofollow, because if I was going to, they probably aren’t worth publishing in the first place. If I don’t want to vouch for a site to the spiders, why would I recommend it to the real human visitors!?

I gotta agree with the post here, too. Dofollow blogs have more moderation, and that means a higher quality comment experience and more interaction. Nofollow bloggers seem more likely to just approve & forget. Besides, if nofollow links aren’t conserving pagerank, who benefits from destroying that link juice? Nobody I can think of except maybe the sites who are already ranking at the top.

Hi me own mucker. How come you link to wiki in some of your posts for things like “Skate Park”? Who doesn’t know what a Skate Park is? Do you like wiki that much?

Giving em hell.. A lot of people have a nofollow blog for a reason or they don’t know about nofollow. It doesn’t mean they have a bad blog. Maybe their content is good still.

Also here’s one for you. I absolutely hate blogs that don’t confirm your comment for you after you have left it. No “Thanks your comment will be moderated soon” Nothing! Which is exactly what just happened now and what will happen when I submit this comment next. Just thought you should know because it’s one of my pet hates. No ones perfect bro.

I think people have the wrong idea about “no follow.” They think it’s only there to gain PR and not what it’s really for which is to keep the Googlebot from following a non-relevant link (such as an affiliate link).

I think Google needs to change how it does business with no-follow links so that relevant links are followed. As it is now, they are hurting their own search engine by not discovering the true, relevant parts of the web that are hidden under no-follow.

Man, I just don’t have any idea at this point. I have neglected my “Main” blogs for a long time now. I don’t add nofollow to my little niche blogs, but then I don’t really expect any real comments or care if i get them on those either. It’s a time thing.

My main blogs are intended to be nofollow, but I haven’t updated my code for that in so long they probably aren’t right now. And they probably won’t be for a while longer either. Will you hate me a little less if I retweet this post for ya?

I also think that it is confusing for some people to know if they have dofollow set up correctly.
There is also a growing backlash against the dofollow idea because of the scumbag spammers. There are search tools to finds dofollow blogs which the spammers then target. There are also lists of dofollow blogs that have supposedly been vetted down to sites that pretty much allow any comment to stick. So dofollow sites like mine get a LOT of borderline spam comments which require much work to either delete or de-link. I still do it because I feel as you do about dofollow, but I can understand how others might feel different. I saw a post somewhere a while ago in which someone was complaining that within a few months of making his site dofollow, spam had increased over 10 times. And the spam was of the type that filters like Akismet do not catch. I have written about these devious, human, (vs robot), spammers a few times. Here is a link to some of the examples on my site of how people try to exploit dofollow blogs.

You are lucky, John! Once your site gets on a few of those lists then you will start getting the real people that come and actually take the time to write a comment only to get a link to their site selling all kinds of stuff, The examples that I use in those posts are the tame ones. The bad ones I delete right away. I guess they take the time to do it because a lot of people just leave up all comments that are not captured by Akismet or whatever.

This is the reason why I love you John (no homo lol). You straight-shooting “wannabe” blogger tells it as it is. And that’s also why you “smoke the competition”.

Bloggers should remember that dofollow existed even before their blogs are created. It’s Google’s idea to add this nofollow thingy.

So if you feel like standing up against the big guy, get rid of nofollow.

Hi John,
I loved reading this post – you’re so honest. And I’m all for the do follow movement. I love Wordpress but I really think they no followed the comments automatically to kiss up to Google :-D (LOL)
I’m a do follow blog and soon I’ll be inaugurating a blog in my subdirectory of my main domain all about blogging tips. This new blog will also have comment luv and be do follow. The only reason I haven’t started it yet is because I can’t find the right code to put in my htaccess file for it to do the canonicalization of my url (but that’s another topic). Anyways I think people need to be more appreciative of their commenters and do follow their blogs. I know I am.
The other thing is that we don’t loose page rank when we give out a link we share that page rank. Page rank is only lost when the links pointing to a page lose their strength not when you link out. Therefore there really is NO reason to be no follow. But people don’t know SEO therefore they don’t know this information therefore they are sacred to be do follow. (Did I say to may therefores? LOL)
Anywyas I might do a podacts to explain all of this some day to convert more bloggers inot becoming do follow. Go Do Follow Movement- woohoo!
All the best,

Hey John,

You’re one great blogger and I admire your being straightforward. Having my blog switched to “dofollow” definitely provides favorable results.

I just came to a WordCamp and it’s quite surprising why most bloggers I’ve met simply don’t embrace the idea of “dofollow” in comments but anyway it’s their choice.

Now, I only concentrate on commenting on “dofollow” blogs because I think “dofollow” bloggers are more friendly and sincere.

However, there’s an instance when I joined a “dofollow” blog directory and find out that some of the sites listed are “nofollow” so I reported them to the site’s admin. Not a good way to advertise your site as “dofollow” but does otherwise.

I normally use Firefox when leaving a blog my first comment because I utilize the “no nofollow” add-on to verify if the comments section of a blog is really “dofollow” so I can tell who’s lying.

Kool, I really Liked the idea of this Do Follow blog. The first thing I am going to do after commenting on this post is make my blog a Do Follow. And ‘ll make a post regarding that too. :)

I feel its better to read and make some sensible comments at do-follow blogs, than throwing money to a SEO company and asking them to build you a strong backlink.

Hey John – You are nicer than me. I have posted about these folks a few times and unless they make a real great comment, I always delete it. In this case, the comment is short, bad grammatically, and links to a pure sales site that does not have any helpful information at all.

Plus the commenter, (probably a he), conveniently and transparently left off the “n” off of his business name.

See – I told you that you were nicer than me! heh.

Hi John,
I have to admit I’ve been prowling do follow blogs mainly to get some anchor text links to my site. I have noticed that most of them are rich in comments though, and mostly useful ones. I don’t really blog myself because I am quite boring, but if I do start one I think this would be the way to go.

I think those who enable DoFollow tags on their blog, receive a lot more comments and most are high quality. It also helps those who are looking to get backlinks. In the end, it’s a win-win situation.
