    I was checking as to whether or not a link I posted on a webpage had nofollow tags on it, but I instead saw:

    What is the _blank tag's significance to linking/SEO? If it doesn't hinder the backlink benefit, I think I found a nice site to get free backlinks from :D

    I think _blank just signifies that the link opens in a new window?

    Ahh you're right! Thanks for the tip.

    For anyone interested, you can get a free backlink at:

    www.projectplaylist.com ; when you get your profile, simply put your website in the space where you are supposed to put your MySpace URL :D. If your PP profile gets PR, it'd be nice to have indeed!

    Nope, since they added the MySpace/Facebook player, everyone knows about it.

    Wonder if they'll hold their own against the RIAA :p
