The Goddess in Every Woman

People don’t need to comment in blogs, they don’t even have to read. Those few who do need rewarding.

Starting bloggers don’t know,or don’t care, about nofollow/dofollow, and how important it is to bloggers in the long run. In a nutshell, nofollow means you get credited by google for being linked in another blog. Links are important why? They help reaffirm your web presence, tells people and search engines that you’re out there. Being linked to is akin to being affiliated, or at least talked about. Dofollow means your rank improves with the linking, whenever your link appears without the nofollow command, your rankings improve. Why do people put in nofollow to some links? Why take the credit away? Nofollow links are there for advertisement purposes.

I have the no nofollow comment policy in Evilwoobie.com because I want to reward my commenters. I draw the line when I am spammed, and no matter what, a good comment is good only when it adds to the discussion and isn’t there for advertisement only. If it’s obvious that someone just commented to advertise, I do what I do to advertisements, put the no-follow tag.

Harsh or just fair?
