How Can I check if a site is No-follow or Do-follow?

Just as the title says, Do-follow backlinks are much better than No-follow. Can someone tell me how can I find out if a site is no-follow or do-follow?

Thanks

 

yeah i would like to know this too!

 

Hey guys there are plug-in for checking out whether your the site is do-follow or no-follow.
Here is it:-

It's quite easy...

If you're trying to determine if a Blog allows Do Follow comments then

Browse to the blog site...
Click on the Comments link of a post that has comments...
Copy the hyperlinked name of one of the commentors into your clipboard...
View Source in browser...
Search the source HTML for the page looking for the commentor's hyperlinked name...
Look at the link. It should look something like:
- <a href="commentorsURL">Commentor's Name</a> or (DO FOLLOW)
- <a href="commentorsURL" rel="nofollow">Commentor's Name</a> or (NO FOLLOW)
- <a href="commentorsURL" rel="external nofollow">Commentor's Name</a>... (another form of NO FOLLOW)

Does it have a rel="nofollow" or rel="external nofollow"? If not then it is a do follow blog.

 

if you use firefox, there are a few add ons that will do this for you. i use this one most of the time: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5687

 

SEO for firefox and SEOQuake have options to see the nofollow links. It will highlight the nofollow links for you

 

SEOQuake is the best plugin

 

I also use Search Status Adds on. This tool will automatically highlight those links that are nofollow...

 

download and install firefox addon called nofollow

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5687

 

use mozilla no follow plugin ..

 

firefox plugin is best

 

Download this add-on SEO for Firefox http://tools.seobook.com/firefox/seo-for-firefox.html
It highlights links with nofollow attribute

 

So many people repeat and repeat the same answer... I think he is able to understand when from the first post and i don't get it why people post same thing again

 

In fact, there are many reasons why a link may not be followed by search engines:


1. the link may be nofollow (rel=nofollow)

2. the linking page may have a tag no follow, no index
META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">

3. Acces to the linking page may be prohibited by a robots.txt file on the homepage

4. The linking page may be a stand alone page, without any incoming link


Therefore, it does not help at all if you know that your link is dofollow or no follow since this concerns only case 1.

So, you may have some evidence of the real dofollow backlink when the linking page has a recent google cache.

Finally, you may be fully sure that you have got a real backlink only when you find it with your google webmaster account (>>external links) or with yahoo Explorer or similar tools.

 

You can check the nofollow word in page source

 

better is use firfox and select only the link, view the page source.. can see the attribute if its no follow

 

Viewing the source code of the links is best but it does not tell you if the page itself is using nofollow tag. So do both: check the source code of the page and link.

 

Use firefox addon - searchstatus
after unstall it enable the "highlight nofollow link"
Then those link with pink highlighted is nofollow, without highlight is dofollow

 

I use the firefox addon NoDoFollow, its extremely easy to use.

DoFollow links are highlighted blue
NoFollow links are highlighted red

 

If you are using firefox press ctrl+a then go to view --> source

search for no follow if its there that means it is no follow 1.
