Andrew Shell's Weblog: Nofollow Links

  • arham · 1 year ago
    Thanks, it's so useful however What's happen if I do a task from paid review program ? They wants a dofollow link but Google wants nofollow for the Link...any suggestion for me :-)

    This plugin allows you to check which links in your blogroll you want to nofollow on a case by case basis. It does not nofollow all of them by default.

    The official claim is that links with the rel=nofollow attribute do not influence the search engine rankings of the target page. In addition to Google, Yahoo and MSN also support the rel=nofollow attribute.

    i think nofollow helps indexing

    Install was flawless on 2.3.3. I wanted an easy way to touch all my links and set them to nofollow. However, some other plugins either default them all on or all off. Yours has nice granular control so that if one of our link partners wants to reciprocate with dofollow links we can make that happen. At the same time we can allow small user submitted sites on our link page without worrying about any ill effects (whether real or imagined). Since we have about 100 links I didn't want to have to do each one by hand!

    Thanks for this plugin.

    I'll take a look and see if I can find any problems.

    What about a plugin that creates no follow for a menu widget? Your plugin is great, but stops PR from leaking to people outside of our site and not necessarily within our own site. Unless I'm missing something? Just an idea.
  • Andrew Shell · 1 year ago
    I'm not sure I follow your suggestion. The plugin isn't designed to sculpt your sites internal PR flow, it just allows you to determine which links in your blogroll you want to pass PR to and which you want to nofollow.

    Is there any known conflicts with this plugin. I am using blogroll links to show my links on a separate page, I installed your plugin and marked them all as nofollow. When I check page source, there is no nofollow added to any of the links.
  • Andrew Shell · 11 months ago
    It may not work with blogroll links. I haven't tested it out with that. I'm using the internal wordpress filters, but it was designed for nofollowing linke in the sidebar widget. If I get a chance I'll take a look at blogroll links and see if it's something I can hook into. Thanks!

    Does it work on version 2.7.1?
  • Andrew Shell · 8 months ago
    I haven't tested it but I haven't heard of any problems. Give it a shot and let me know how it goes.

    FINALLY. You have no idea of the pain and suffering I have gone through trying to find a plugin that adds "nofollow" to blogroll links in 2.7.1. Yes it works in 2.7.1 and it works on blogroll links.

    Hi. I was looking to download this but I'm a bit confused. At WP there's a download stamped version 1.0.3. The link here has no version number. Which is the most recent?

    Thanks in advance.
  • Andrew Shell · 5 months ago
    They are the same. The link with no version is just an alias to the most recent version. Since WordPress.org is hosting the plugin, they know the most recent version so they just link directly to it. For me, by linking to the generic filename I don't have to remember to update this page every time I update the plugin. It's always current. Hope you like the plugin!
  • Don · 5 months ago
    Andrew,

    Thanks for your reply. That clears it up. I look forward to using the plugin. I've read excellent comments about it.

    Thanks.
