Making links from my site "nofollow"

Discussion in 'Search Engine Optimization' started by Brent S, Jun 3, 2008.

    I use Popshops and put some ads on my sites via php. One of the options that I have in Popshops is to:

    Add rel="nofollow" to all pagination links

    Do I want to do this? Will it help me rank higher by not giving the site, to which I am an affiliate, some additional rank?

    it's better to use nofollow on duplicate pages. as i understand , the pages you mention is not duplicated pages

    only if its pages you dont want to get spidered. I would manually try to add the no follows only to links that you don't care to give pr to.

    It's good that you put nofollow to the outbound links especially if it is affiliates only.

    I added no follow tags to my affiliate links. yes it will rank you higher coz you are not sharing your PR to your affiliate links.

    Ya nofollow save some PR juice and PR not distrubuted in other links. But it is useful if you have duplicate content and for the external websites

    Do it. You don't want PageRank flowing to those pages anyway.
