    I would suggest you downloading the SEO Quake plug-in so you can check for yourself. Some site's come up as zero inbound and out bound links. I am not sure if this is do to some software or using Javascript for the links. The first blog you posted is one of these, you can't easily tell if it's do follow or not.

    The second one you posted is even weirder. The plug-in registers only one link off the page (a do follow), there is clearly something amiss since there are several other out-bound links on the page, which are not registering for some unexplained reason.

    First one is dofollow second one is nofollow. You can simply open the code, locate your URl and check if you see a rel="nofollow" or rel="external nofollow" within anchor tag.

    If you are using FireFox then I recommend you use the plugin called "NoDoFollow" or something like that. It allows you to check whether or not any link is dofollow by right clicking and then selecting NoDoFollow.

    It is nofollow. You can install this Search Status firefox add-on to see if the link has a nofollow rel.

    They're neither do- nor nofollow! The links are not in the source code at all! They are embedded using JavaScript.

    Which means search engines don't see them at all. This is easily proven if you open Google's cache of one of those pages that has comments on them.

    Hope this clears up all the confusion in this thread.
