Many people are confused about the difference between DoFollow and NoFollow. Today, I'm going to explain in short with examples.
You should try to get links from whichever sources available. It is a tactic in Search Engine Optimization (SEO). For exampke, you want comment in a blog, you could get a backlink, just by using this HTML code:
<a href="your link URL">your link name (anchor)</a>
When you placed this piece of code within your comment, you used to get backlink from it. It was highly beneficial for you to rank high (especially if the blog is high PageRank).
Nofollow is a HTML tag value added to the link anchor code, and will change the normal code as:
<a href=”your link URL” rel=”nofollow”>your link name < /a>
The link will be valueless and the search crawlers would not follow them to index. So, such a link is as useless as a piece of text.
A DoFollow comment will be a normal comment as in the above or will have the attribute “rel=’dofollow’” instead of nofollow, as in:
<a href=”link URL” rel=”dofollow”>link name </a>
The attribute DoFollow or no rel attribute at all means the blog link is good. Though no attribute in HTML exists as DoFollow, it means that the blog is not NoFollow, so it has the same effect of a normal backlink.
