    Hi,
    If I have pages, each page have info about sites, for example:

    www.google.com
    www.digg.com
    www.imdb.com
    etc, etc..

    I don't hyperlink to those but I am afraid that Google and other SE's count them as links - therefor do I need a "nofollow" for those only?

    There is any chance SE's see it as text only since I don't Hyperlink them?

    Thanks in advance.

    If the link is not an actual link, it is not counted as a link.

    Yeah, I think so also tho I want it to get indexing as a Text, and maybe "nofollow" will hurt it some how..

    I don't think nofollow hurts your site in any way. Remember that it's telling the SE's to not follow that link for possibilities in "private data" or "spam data"...
