    Is there a way of telling if a link to my site is a no follow link, would the url read different when I place my pointer over it?

    When you check the source code of the page you can see a "no follow" attribute. To make your job simpler there is a "no follow" plugin in firefox.here is a link if you want to try.

    IE is not cool for SEO. Install FF. Checking source code every time is thankless labour.

    A no follow link will have the rel="nofollow" attribute in it like this <#a href="http://www.moneysupermarket.com" title"Moneysupermarket.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.moneysupermarket.com</a#> (I've added in the # to avoid this being converted to a link)

    Using firefox NOFOLLOW plugin helps you identify those nofollow links, as well to avoid losing more time (checking the source code)
