    No fallow will not bring you any backlink only traffic.

    No it's not correct. However do follow links are more valuable in Google's eyes but it doesn't mean no follow links are not important. Both no follow and do follow links are important in link building. If you have only do follow links and you're not collecting no follow link then you might be proceeding further for a problem because Google will realize you're exchanging links just for earning Page rank and it will reduce the value of your site.

    Its true. Google provides a very little value to nofollow links. So, always try to build dofollow links only

    Ofcourse no-follow link got less priority. Do go for do-follow links to get good back-links.

    Link is always a link, and I think that no follow links still have importance in search engine, and it will only generate traffic into your site. We must balance the SEO nature by using no follow and do follow links.

    The major SE's will abide by the NOFOLLOW tag, but if they wanted to ignore it they could. I've seen open source SE software that had the ability to ignore NOFOLLOW and robots.txt directives...

    no its not true completely, Google gives very little importance to no follow links as well....

    But it is generally not advisable....

    If no follow links come from high page rank sites than it will really helpful. There are lots of popular social bookmarking sites who will give you no follow back links but it is really very helpful. Infact I always approach for backlinks which have high page rank in compare to my page.

    No-follow links still have value, especially from high PR sites like craigslist

    Its true that google doesn't give value to the no-follow links. and these are not the source of backlinks but good for the traffic so we can't ignore it.

    NoFollow backlinks have no value as backlink, but it is necessary. Because the combination of DoFollow and NoFollow backlinks looks natural. And also through NoFollow backlinks you will get traffic. Traffic is the only think you need for getting success in online campaign.

    "nofollow" is to help search engines and detect websites which spam forums, blogs, and online communities. "Nofollow" link can give extra credit to a website and rank you really high. If you use your name as anchor text (Example: John Appleseed) it can give your site / blog better positions on search engines. At the same time, search engines can raise "red flag" when they see popular keywords in the links with "nofollow" (Example: seo, advertising, credit card, viagra, casino, wallpapers etc...).​
