    Howdy Friends,

    I would like to ask a question about no-follow backlinks. I found that one of my friends having website which has nofollow vs dofollow ration of the order of 99.1% to 0.9%.

    I think it hearts website ranking on search engines. But the question is what to do with that much amount of nofollow links. Should it be removed by Disavow Tool? If so will it heart website anymore? How website performs on SERP by doing so?

    What are the other possible solutions without affecting site ranking and other SEO parameters.

    Waiting for your kind reply.
     
    Solved! View solution.

    Nofollow links WILL NOT hurt your site, on the other hand, they help diversify your backlink profiles. Will your site look "suspicious" if they have 99% dofollow backlinks?
    However, from my own exp, nofollow backlinks do not contribute much to the real increase of ranking.

    High quantity of backlink is more important than high quantity of back link, High quality backlink surly help in SERP.
    While removing the backlink make sure that you are removing poor quality backlink so that it will not affect the SERP.

    Nofollow links help to look genuine to a website, but it doesn, t mean you have to avoid do follow backlinks. Do follow helps to get ranking over search engines.

    Google doesn't give value to no-follow links. So don't worry about that, try to focus on building quality links .
