Blog Links -- are they equal to regular backlinks?

    Are posting links on dofollow blogs equal to regular backlinks on a webpage --- or does Google count blog links much less, or not at all?

    I guess it all depends on relevancy. A relevant backlink from blog comment can be more powerful than a regular link from other site.

    I am doubtful on that, everything being equal, both should have the weightage

    I think content and comments links are better . And they can provide you traffic also but sidebar links helps to boost pr only no one visits link in sidebar of others blog .

    It comes down to where the backlink comes from and what content is on that site and if it matches your site

    I suspect that links within the blog posts or comments have more value than the blogroll or comment url.

    I agree, because more often than not, a blogroll will become a sitewide link.

    Relevancy as well as the trust and authority that the blog has.

    Do you think that link signatures are equal to the anchors in the blog??

    In general a blogroll has more seo value that a sig link. Signature links are more valuable for the traffic that they can generate. In any case it's good to have a link profile that includes all kinds of links.

    If you mean mean commenting on dofollow blog, I guess its OK and may be equivalent to regular links.

    In my opinion, in-content links are better than links coming from the sidebar.

    i think relevancy is more important than dofollow, if they are not relevant they won't effect the ranking.
