How to Make Blogspot Blogs 'Dofollow' and the Difference Between Dofollow and Nofollow Links

Now if you're a net developer or the like, you will likely know what dofollow and nofollow hyperlinks are. But for the layman I will clarify what dofollow/nofollow is and how to alter a blogspot weblog, into dofollow.

Nicely then, dofollow technically does not exist. What it is, is when a link is posted it can contain an attribute that reads 'rel=nofollow'. This indicates that search engines will not aspect this link in when they rank your pages, thus you get practically no benefit from commenting on a nofollow weblog for the reason that not quite a few people today will click on your comment URL. Positive, a nofollow link from a high traffic page, in a superior position, will earn you visitors, but that link will not count for something as the search engines see it. A dofollow link is generally 1 devoid of this 'rel=nofollow' attribute. It is seen by search engines and they count this link when operating out how to rank your web site in their indexes (I'll talk about the significance of far better/worse hyperlinks and what they are, in that series I preserve saying I'll trust me I'll do it next post!). So commenting on a dofollow blog is helpful.

There are drawbacks of a dofollow link though. If a lot of hyperlinks are dofollow on a page, they get the link juice split among them. I'll talk about this in my subsequent post.

How then, I here you asking, do I make my blogspot blog's comments dofollow, so that people today can benefit from it?

1. Go to Blogger layout and click "Edit HTML".
   
2. Check the box reading "Expand Widget Templates".
   
3. Search for "NoFollow" applying a word processor or other program. You will obtain at least two of them in your template's code.
   
4. Eliminate "rel='nofollow'" from the tag that begins with "a expr:href="data:comment.authorUrl"
   
5. The second nofollow is for trackback URLs. This displays links to blogs that link to your post. You may perhaps opt for to keep this attribute or not. It really is up to you.
   
6. And that's it! Your blogspot blog has now been created dofollow. You can submit it to dofollow search engines to garner even significantly more traffic!
