Hi, I don't know if you already use this feature on ezinearticles.com but I saw that we can post comments for articles, as we do for blogs posts. Isn't it an easy way to get backlinks from this big website ? Or do you think backlinks from comments are not so good ? Don't know about other article directories. Just thought I could share, there are not so many articles that are commented (I browsed randomly and didn't see any).
is there amy follow on links ? have you checked it? in my opinion, they are using nofollow in comment links
Well that was part of the question, koolasia already suggested it. I m not an expert so I was asking about the quality of this linking.
Look at the source code and see if there is a nofollow tag in the link. I imagine that will be the case. That still doesn't mean the link cant bring traffic - just comment on relevant articles that actually rank in the SEs and you should get some traffic. Make sure your comments are helpful and not spammy.
Okay I have found a comments page and link looks like : <a target="_new" href="http://URL.com" rel="nofollow">Anchor Text</a> But I've found the page searching for infos with Google, I wasn't looking for comments. And the comments page was on the first results page.
