Articlesbase links

Show me "hardcoded" .. Just because they clearly said it in the terms and conditions does not mean they have coded it properly.

 

There you see, they use a seperate div or include file.

 

You went in the wrong source. Please do proper research. The pasted source you sent me is not the Author Bio Box

 

jesus christ
what is that the source from then?
its not the syndicate because because theres no links in there only plain text

<div class="author-bio">

Hi all,

The source of the confusion here is the 'Syndicate this article' textarea box which contains the code that blogaboutnothin mentions. The authors bio box on the page itself contains a nofollow link, enclosed by a dofollow link - which is strange. From the command line:

[root@host ~]# GET 'http://www.articlesbase.com/computers-articles/death-or-spam-866082.html' | grep 'href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com'
                <textarea rows="3" cols="30" id="texttocopy"><h1>Death or spam</h1><strong>Author: <a title="Tom Aaron" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/tom-aaron/109423.htm">Tom Aaron</a></strong><br /><P>I knew something was up when I saw the mischievous look on Fred's face. Fred started to unfold a piece of paper, handing it to me before I could even ask what it was. I read as follows:</P><P>Subject: BE MORE CAREFULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!</P><P>ATTN.</P><P>I am very sorry for you, is a pity that this is how your life is going to end as soon as you don't comply. As you can see there is no need of introducing myself to you because I don't have any business with you, my duty as I am mailing you now is just to KILL you and I have to do it as I have already been paid for that.</P><P>Someone you call a friend wants you Dead by all means, and the person have spent a lot of money on this, the person also came to us and told me that he want you dead and he provided us with your name, picture and other necessary information's we needed about you. So I sent my boys to track you down and they have carried out the necessary investigation needed for the operation on you, and they have done that but I told them not to kill you that I will like to contact you and see if your life is Important to you or not since their findings shows that you are innocent.</P><P>I called my client back and ask him of you email address which I didn't tell him what I wanted to do with it and he gave it to me and I am using it to contact you now. As I am writing to you now my men are monitoring you and they are telling me everything about you.</P><P>Now do you want to LIVE OR DIE? As someone has paid us to kill you. Get back to me now if you are ready to pay some fees to spare your life, $30,000 is all you need to spend You will first of all pay $15,000 then I will send the tape to you and when the tape get to you, you will pay the remaining $15,000. If you are not ready for my help, then I will carry on with my job straight-up.</P><P>WARNING: DO NOT THINK OF CONTACTING THE POLICE OR EVEN TELL ANYONE BECAUSE I WILL KNOW. REMEMBER, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS YOU VERY WELL WANT YOU DEAD! I WILL EXTEND IT TO YOUR FAMILY, INCASE I NOTICE SOMETHING FUNNY.</P><P>DO NOT COME OUT ONCE IT IS 7:PM UNTIL I MAKE OUT TIME TO SEE YOU AND GIVE YOU THE TAPE OF MY DISCUSSION WITH THE PERSON WHO WANT YOU DEAD THEN YOU CAN USE IT TO TAKE ANY LEGAL ACTION. GOOD LUCK AS I AWAIT YOUR REPLY TO THIS E-MAIL CONTACT</P><P>"That's quite an email message." I said. "That must have been pretty eerie."</P><P>"At first, yes, it was." Fred replied. "Still, when you get right down to it, it's just spam."</P><P>"Spam that says to pay or die is not your run of the mill spam." I said.</P><P>"Very true." Answered Fred and continued, "So, where do you think this is from?"</P><P>I reread the email message. A non-English speaker could have written the letter or translation software could have created the letter. I doubted that any native English speaker, however poorly educated, would write like this. I started to say so when Fred spoke up.</P><P>"I have been thinking about this for quite some time. I have never heard of anything like this before. I didn't reply as I think it is not a good idea to reply to people who are trying to scam you. Still, the first thing that came to my mind was the Nigerian scam, you know, the one where someone from Nigeria emails you and says they need your help moving money out of Nigeria. This seemed just like another variation."</P><P>I told Fred that I bet he could find something like this at the Snopes website, but Fred didn't want to look. He said he would rather think of this as his own personal death threat, even if it was not, not just as a piece of spam that was sent to many, many people.</P><P>I didn't reply. What could you possible reply to a statement like that?<BR /></P><strong>About the Author:</strong><br /><p>At Aaron Language Services (<A href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com/"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com">http://www.aaronlanguage.com</a></A>), we provide translation, proofreading, and online English coaching for a primarily Japanese client base.

Code (markup):

So, that first line is the textarea which contains this:

<A href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com/"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com">http://www.aaronlanguage.com</a></A>

Code (markup):

Yes, it's dofollow, but I doubt Google will confuse it for a link. It will only 'work' once your article is syndicated.

The second line contains this:

<A onClick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com/"><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" onClick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com">http://www.aaronlanguage.com</a></A>

Code (markup):

which is a dofollow link enclosing a nofollow link. No idea why they do that, but the end result is nofollow.

So, the bottom line is that articlesbase is only dofollow once your article has been syndicated.

 

Wow, that page source is confusing as hell. The links in the syndicate text box on the right under the adsense are DOFOLLOW, the links in the actual article are not.

END of Discussion.

 

I have to chime in here because there seems to be a lot of disinformation, especially from some 'alleged' seo experts. Admittedly, i'm not one, but i do in fact try to "do proper research" before i say something that will make me look like an idiot later on. That said....

Articlesbase used to have a policy where any anchored text links in the resource box were nofollow, and normal url links were follow. Apparently, over time they changed that. If you use firefox, you can see whether it's dofollow, or nofollow by right clicking on the link in question, and then selecting properties. It will say nofollow if in fact it is a nofollow link. So if you check the original aaronlanguage link, firefox says that it's a nofollow link. The only explanation i can think of for finding dofollow links is that somehow they didn't get changed over. I don't know, I haven't actually seen any dofollow links yet.

Another easy way to see is to look at it with the firebug addon for firefox. Below is what firebug shows me when i examine the resource box:

<div class="text">
<p>
At Aaron Language Services (
<a href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');"/>
<a href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.aaronlanguage.com</a>
), we provide translation, proofreading, and online English coaching for a primarily Japanese client base. If you are an editor, specializing in medicine or the hard sciences, we are always looking for experienced editors. Click on the menu at our top page where it says personnel, in English, for more information about the work and how to contact us.
</p>
</div>

Code (markup):

So as you can see in the code above, again it shows that it's nofollow.

And if you still don't believe that they're nofollow, i emailed articlesbase the other day when this thread was posted, and they finally got back to me today. Here's what i initially said, and their response:

Name: xxxxxxx

Email:

Company:

URL:

Department: content

Message:
When i check the resource box links on a few different articles, the non-anchor text links are nofollowed too. Are all links in the resource box now nofollow? I knew that the anchor text links were no follow, but i thought the non anchor text ones were followed. Is that something you recently changed?

Hi xxxxxxx,

All the links are nofollowed, not matter if anchored or not.

So there you have it. Articlesbase links in the resource box are NOFOLLOW.

And remember, just because you keep repeating something, it doesn't make it so - no matter how belligerent you get. Always do your "proper research".

Flame ON!

 

ArticlesBase links are DoFollow, ArticlesBase links are DoFollow, ArticlesBase links are DoFollow, ArticlesBase links are DoFollow, ArticlesBase links are DoFollow.

Did they change yet?

 

Who is Blind???

As I see it is the code on that article's resource section:

(<a onclick="javascriptageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com/"></a><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" onclick="javascriptageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com">http://www.aaronlanguage.com</a>

Is this DOFOLLOW??

Nice Proof

 

what an awesome thread

 

Yeah I think it too

 

don't really know what the problem was all along to be honest, everyone can see it was nofollow from the start

 

are you blind?

prove me wrong.

 

You can match up the codes by typing "At Aaron Language Services (<A href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com/"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.aaronlanguage.com">http://www.aaronlanguage.com</a>"

The code you showed me is on a seperate part of the site. Match up the box where the author leaves the bio info. Look for words "At Aaron Language Services" and the link to his site right after it.

 

lol please say your not still claiming there dofollow?

Give it up now its been proved beyond all doubt its nofollow
