    The best way to figure out if a site is "NoFollow", is to view the page's "view source" and do a "find" for the term nofollow.

    But on classified sites, it isn't the nofollow issue that you need to worry about, it is the length of time the "ad" will be displayed, and under the orginal URL.

    you also very easily and quickly determine if links on a page are nofollow by using the Firefox web browser and installing the seo for firefox plugin which will highlight nofollow links in red

    Use FF plugin search status for checking this.

    Yes i agree with that. you have to look at their source code or get some plug-in that can tell you it'd do-follow or not. I i would assumme that most of them should be no-follow.

    Very few allow you to add direct link of your website. Else you have only the option to write title, description and contact id including address. The interested person contact u via email. But you can check manually for the dofollow.

    That's exactly what I do when looking for sites to get a backlink from. If someone has already left a link on the site, look at the code surrounding their link and see if it's "nofollow" or not.

    Few are do follow and few are not but mostly very few sites are allowing now a days to post a live link in the ad area and are charging a minimum listing charges for having your site link for website details or else only the email be available for the person to contact you .
    I think this is the precaution they are taking because of rapid spam posts who are not really meant to advertise instead get a backlink from it.

    The best plugin to find dofollow links easily would be with the help of the "search status" firefox add on.
    Just visit the ads site and when highlight nofollow no index option is enabled you will get to see the clear view of the nofollow and no index links highlighted in red color by the "search status" add on.

    Hope This helps you.

    Thanks
