    Whether it is dofollow or nofollow I don't care! My main aim is to get traffic for that link..

    Hi,

    My name is Tam, JoomlaShine Affiliate Assistant. If you have loads of affiliate links then nofollow them. That will help you to avoid the sudden drop in ranking. If you just have less than 15 affiliates link, you can consider to add the dofollow attribute to the higher quality link.

    Hope that works for you.
    Tam

    As affiliate manager, I would add nofollow attribute. You don't have any control over where your affiliates will post links and some link may hurt your ranking. So add nofollow and you should be fine.

    Even as affiliate marketer I always put nofollow to my affiliate links, so that I don't leak any juice to affiliate program.Mainly because I don't want them to over rank me :).

    I agree. I don't think it really matters when it comes to affiliate links whether they are do or no follow.

    This is something I've never thought about, but it is probably worth playing safe and no following them. I'd better get to work!
