    Hi,

    due to recent changes in Google Algorithm!

    Do I have to use both nofollow and dofollow links so that it would look natural to search engine?

    yes, use both nofollow and dofollow as both have some weightage. Nofollow is also good to get website hits which in turn will help in alexa rank.

    Yes, you can use both, with different anchor text depending upon your website. Keep a good ratio between nofollow and dofollow.

    Nofollow and dofollow tags are best for your site maintenance. If you don't want to pass your site juice to another you apply nofollow tags.

    I accept that nofollow links also work but not as same as dofollow links. But I didn't get any which causes problem of nofollow links. I don't look that the link I am making is nofollow or dofollow. I only look the standerd of the site where I am making link.

    Google certainly gives credence to nofollow links, so they're better than nothing. And of course your ratio looks more natural.

    is an HTML attribute value used to instruct some search engines that a hyperlink should not influence the link target’s ranking in the search engine’s index. It is intended to reduce the effectiveness of certain types of search engine spam, thereby improving the quality of search engine results and preventing spamdexing from occurring in the first place.

    Yeah Google ranks natural website more easily these days.So both type of link will help to gain trust and authority in search engine's eye. Dofollow are mandatory for enhancing the rank while nofollow helps in crawling and provides credibility.
