What is nofollow and How to Add it for Various Links in Blogger Blogs

Nofollow and dofollow are some of the rel attributes in an anchor tag. They specify whether a link can be crawled by search engines’ robots or not. That means when a search engine robot crawls your page and if it finds a link with dofollow attribute it will crawl the link and if the link is nofollow it won’t go to that page and will continue crawling your page. The default one is dofollow. If you have not specified the rel attribute the search engines will assume it as dofollow link.

Disadvantages of dofollow:

If all the links on the page are dofollow links, the search engine will suspect your page. So, you need to add nofollow to one or two links randomly, even for your internal links.
As for as external links are concerned, linking them on your website with the dofollow attribute will hurt your website ranking if the websites you link are irrelevant to your website content, scamming, fishing sites or low quality websites. So, obviously you have to add rel= “nofollow” to external links.
This article will help you to add rel= “nofollow” attribute to various links on a Blogger blog.
