How Google Treat With "No follow" Attribute ?

Google Webmaster Tools shows a list of links to my home page from other sites. It is a fact that several of the links on that list are nofollow links. That proves with absolute certainty that Google doesn't "totally ignore" nofollow links. If they were totally ignored, Google wouldn't have any record of them at all. But the fact that they are on the list proves beyond any doubt that Google does have a record of them. Therefore it is absolutely untrue to say that Google totally ignores them

 

Ok this is what Matt Cutt's had to say about Nofollow at a PubCon interview about a week ago, so it's the most up to date official statement regarding Nofollow.

 

your earlier reply was experts reply. thanks for that.
There are two values. and as u told if there is "nofollow" word coming with any other value it work same as the normal "nofollow'
But my quetion is there is
rel="external nofollow"
and
rel="me nofollow"
There must be some what difference between those and with these two different attribute SE's will treat differently...
Let me know in regardas of this.

(I was referring to an earlier post that had backslashes included before the quotation marks - makes me wonder if the person who quoted me was using a Linux based text editor and had to escape them.)

 

I really think that "nofollow" is more of a myth than it is reality. And who cares that it doesn't pass PR? I know for a fact that it passes anchor text.

 

No it does not.

 

that "they" don't care about "why".
I am sure they own the data and they mind it and therefore they care.

 

You Just Keep in mind, No follow won't help you in link juice,
but can give you handsome traffic.
