    Yes....it can reduce your own PR if you link to other low PR sites.You can compensate it by doing more link building for your site.

    Is there any particular reason you want to make it DoFollow? I think that if you are ranking well, if you are properly optimized and you do not want spammers linking to it, you might as well keep it NoFollow. However, I can definitely say that some search engines overlook the NoFollow code, and still index links in your blog. That you will lose a bit of ranking? Yes, remember you will have a lot of lower ranking sites wanting to link to yours. You can try to compensate by making your comments, Approved by you only, this way you control the quality of the comments and the links left. In addition you have to increase your link building efforts in order to try to link to higher PR sites.

    You can make your blog dofollow and approve comments selectively if you're worried about PR value decrease.

    Well I am thinking little different. How many of you heard about PR Sculpting. It says that whether if you dofollow or nofollow any link some weightage of link is exhaust and hence if you have 50 links on single page then your PR will distribute on all the links and if you are using nofollow attribute then the amount of PR on nofollow is exhaust hence no gain to other pages.

    What I am trying to saying is, if you don't want to distribute your page rank to other sites the best things is to stop comments on your post to a limit so that no one can use it for their sole purpose or say to spam your website.

    actually I want to increase traffic for site... its for gen public.. having good traffic around 1000-2500 per day but giving dofollow can increase traffic and comments too. currently people are not commenting.. they just watch stuff and get out

    That's why you need to moderate all of comments.. need some extra time but you will attrack more people to your site because you're dofollow

    Depending n what your site is about this shouldn't really matter. If the site is in the IM niche than yea, but still.. Do you want people commenting on your site just to get a dofollow link? The average visitor doesn't know the difference between a dofollow and nofollow link, hell they don't even know what a link is.. If I were you I'd leave them nofollow. It's a lose lose situation going dofollw.
