hey, i got a question for you regarding the nofollow backlinks and their influence on serp. i know that spiders do not crawl no follow links and that nofollow links don't share PR, right? but, nofollow backlinks boost a websites position in the search results?
I have heard that they do boost your search engine position so they are still valuable. They just don't pass PR.
yes...nofollow links are valuable...and help in getting traffic as well as improving search engine rankings.
Nofollow does not let the page juice follow the link, but yes, it certainly increases the value of the website. Search bots analyze that even though mentioned as nofollow, the incoming links count. But, not certainly in the PR terms.
