No Follow Link Value??

    My question is simple?

    If I have my link on a site which is a No-Follow site does this link add any value to my site at all?? I have someone who is trying to tell me that my link from his No-Follow link website will still help my site's link popularity?

    Can someone please help me understand more clearly? Thanks for any advise!

    google will not follow the link, but it still counts as one..link juice - 20%, link to help your PR - none

    With no follow links you will not get any benefit of PR from the site where you placed yours. But from that site you will get benefit of anchor text.

    Does that mean, no-follow can still help to Increase SERPS ?

    Yes it can. It's still classed as a backlink, but it won't contribute to your PageRank (no link juice). :)

    To Yahoo it definitely helps, but in the Big G it means nothing! :)

    You may not get any link power from his link, but you may still get traffic.

    For example up until recently, squidoo was a no follow site, but I often used to drive links to that site and being an authority site in google's eye meant it ranked well.

    Nett result: People clicked through to the squidoo lens, and then in some cases to my money page.

    So from that point of view, you could say it would help your sites popularity.

    Remember also that the anchor text will still "count" just not the link power.

    Cheers

    Nopes, Never...
    Here some folks are feeding misinformation since last couple of months.
    Don't trust them.
    If you are seeking few visits from nofollow links than you can build it otherwise it's total waste of time.

    Is a nofollow link counted as a backlink?

    I am talking about when we do a google search link:mysite.com

    So, is a nofollow link a backlink?

    doesn't pass trust or PR but visitors can follow it and Googlebot may do if it wants.

    Good in terms of visitors, bad in terms of PR juice.

    Google totally ignores nofollow links, though other search engines are reportedly do give it some value, atleast they follow the link.

    Google is not consider the no follow is link is back link. No follow links give only traffic to the site.
