    I will post my signature of a healthsite in some healthforums. How do I know if it has nofollow?

    Open the site in FireFox. Right-click one of the signiture links and then click Properties. The Properties box will then show if it is nofollow.

    I tried your sig and it says

    Link Properties:
    Address: http://www.custom-car.us/
    Will Open in: New window

    Miscellaneous Properties
    Text Language: English


    Does this mean that DP is on nofollow for sigs?

    I prefer to use SEOQuake it has an option to put a line through no follow links. Its not as hard on the eyes or as annoying as the hilighting that searchstatus does.

    PS: dp doesn't use nofollow on sig links :)

    No, the sigs on DP are not nofollow.

    Seriously, use Firefox and install the SEOQuake and/or Search Status plugins.

    just look the sourse code.

    if you see rel="nofollow" in your signature links, it means that site is using nofollow on its signature links

    SEOQuake will show a line through, I believe, of the nofollow links.

    Search Status shows the nofollow link with a pink highlighting.

    Use the searchstatus plugin for firefox or view the pages source.
