DISQUS

Vinny Lingham's Blog: Comments on this blog no longer support the NoFollow tags!

  • Chris M · 2 years ago
    Good stuff Vinny. Definitely the right move...

    The No Follow attribute has been a great way of combating blog link spams, but Vinny I think it's a good move from you in restoring the true purpose of link popularity.

    I have watched this trend as well, and while I agree the implementation of the no-follow attribute was an effective measure at combating blog spam which is tarnishing user experience, I think it really did degrade the interactivity of the blogosphere. Kudos to you Vinny!

    Its is necessary to stop spam, but on the other way people now crawl less.. mean low traffic..

    Its ironic that many bloggers talk about this but then they actually use no follow.

    I just finished commenting on Gordon Choi's Blog about this, and I'm going to do the same here. If I make a contribution in some way, I deserve the credit for doing such. It should be left up to Blog owners to Mod there own property, not some unseen hand in the sky somewhere. I am always on the look out for Blogs, Forums, or something useful that is related to SEO...it's what I do. I offer SEO Services and free information and if I help someone pro bono or even if I learn something from someone else I pass credit as such. If you visit my site, you will see that I chose to install a forum, instead of a blog (I wanted to put in a blog) because I could control what MY forum chooses to do.

    I like to use nofollow on the couple of blogs that I run, I feel that if someone can take the time to think of a useful comment to type, then it's only fair they get some form of credit,

    Askimet is amazing too, very useful at keeping away the spamlinks! Blogs should be about creating an interconnected web of useful links anyway, with good, relevant content.
