Hello Everybody, I want to know that Is Yahoo consider the nofollow links ? Waiting for a right reply.
That is not true guys. Yahoo dont consider nofloow links! This simply means that Yahoo wont give a positive vote to your website if it is a nofollow link. However they will show the existence of the link.
You may want to read Google, Yahoo, MSN Unite On Support For Nofollow Attribute For Links rather than rely on speculation
Yahoo and all the major search engines do not count no follow links. Straight from Yahoo's mouth (two years ago): Yahoo : If we find a link we make it available to our algorithms to find new content, whether it has a ‘no follow’ attribute or not. However, if the ‘no follow’ attribute is present, it means that no attribution is given to the target from the source of the link. Cheers,
As per the standards in existence since the time when the itnernet started, it has always been that the search engines will decide whether to consider a link for ranking or not, in recent times there has been an evolutionary change in that the newly added attribute of nofollow is changing the rules.
rel="nofollow" Action in different search engines - Google: Follows the link: Yes Indexes the "linked to" page: No Shows the existence of the link: Only for a previously indexed page In SERPs for anchor text: Only for a previously indexed page Yahoo: Follows the link: Yes Indexes the "linked to" page: Yes Shows the existence of the link: Yes In SERPs for anchor text: Yes MSN Search: Follows the link: Yes Indexes the "linked to" page: No Shows the existence of the link: Yes In SERPs for anchor text: Only for a previously indexed page Ask.com: Follows the link: Yes Indexes the "linked to" page: Yes Shows the existence of the link: Yes In SERPs for anchor text: Yes
yahoo don't care about nodofollow or dofollow they take them both as a normal links , its just google who care about dofollow and nodofollow links , so having back links in yahoo are so easy
I experienced to ranked number 1 in yahoo many times so I will stick to my post that link is link when it comes to yahoo wether it's nofollow or dofollow.
Yeah i think Google consider nofollow links but don't give them that much importance as they do give to dofollow links, but yahoo seems to give equal importance to both of them.
