Why Have I Switched My “nofollow” to “dofollow”?
After intense debates all over the internet I still don’t get the point. Here are my questions:
- What is wrong about commenting on dofollow blogs related to your topic?
- What is the difference between commenting on a “dofollow” or commenting on a “nofollow”?
- Why wouldn’t I get something in return for generating ON TOPIC content for the blog I read?
- Why would an author think my comment is a spammy one just because his blog is “dofollow”?
And in the end, here comes the big question: What in the world is the difference between a “nofollow” blog and a “dofollow” one?
After I have turned my blog “dofollow” I hope to get all the answers.
Still, my mind is baking on this other question:
Q: Should I not buy a car because I might just crash it against walls, trees or bridges or whatever?
A: I can drive like a nut and crash just as well as I can drive with extreme prudence and avoid 97% of the crash chances. It is entirely up to me. I can even not drive my car at all… this is also an option.
This brings me to my answers to some of the questions above. I can choose if one comment gets live or not just as well as a fellow blogger can choose to spam me or not to.
Please leave a line or two with your thoughts on “dofollow” vs. “nofollow” blogging and the consequences of the choices you’ve made.
I will definitely delete/spam aggressive off topic spam comments but I will most definitely approve your comment after taking some of your precious time to add content to my site.
Hope this article answers the title question and also that you will consider the link you get as an insignificant sign of my gratitude.

I just switched my site to dofollow a few weeks ago. And I have actually seeing some benefits. People are interacting more on my site and are linking back to my site more often. Also, my page rank has just gone from a 0 to a 3. So, I do not think the dofollow links have punished me much SEO wise. I’ll wait and see…

You should look at installing commentluv or disqus on your blog. This will make it dofollow and hence you will gain more traffic.

Me too changed my blog to dofollow two months back. I never put that this is a dofollow blog. I cannot find anything wrong with this. I got lot of visitors and my page rank also increased.
