    Not sure if this is well known or not, but you know how ezine puts nofollow in links if you list them in the article body? Well, when I first submitted my article I had a link at the bottom with my keyword as the link and they made it nofollow. I editted the article to add my author bio with my link ( author bio links are dofollow ) and I changed the link in the article body to just a straight out link like http://www.mylink.com and when it was re approved BOTH links were dofollow links, including the one in the article body.

    Just found it interesting. Not sure if it's because I resubmitted my article or if its because I changed the text link to a http:// link but it worked.

    It was just an example of the link format. Not a real site.

    I think it is due to is being a direct URL not an anchor text, all anchor text in the body gets a nofollow.

    I have tried to put a link in the anchor text and it hasn't allowed me, so I just always include it in the author bio.
