No-No-Follow. Uh-Oh…
We’re now using the NoFollow Free plugin for WordPress to clear the evil no-follow from our links. Okay, maybe it’s not quite evil…
There is a bit of a movement on at the moment – with a lot of bloggers wanting to remove the no-follow from links on their blogs. I’m not quite sure what the stats are at the moment – I presume most WordPress blogs are still no-follow, seeing as that’s how it comes out of the box.
What was the internet all about to start with? Let me think here a minute…yeah, linking to other sources of information! That was it!
PR sculpting and blog spam are regularly cited as a couple of the major reasons most blogs and bloggers started using no-follow. I haven’t noticed any let up in spam with no-follow applied – I don’t suppose spammers check for this….and most of us would probably have more luck with an ice sculpture than attempting PR sculpting…
Down with no-follow, I say.
