- I'm getting two catches from this
- 1. Nofollow links are a clear indicator of shady SEO behaviour. If you have a forum or a blog comment section it seems to be fine to go for no follow.
- But here is the BIG question: Does Google looks for footprints that suggest that the link is WITHIN the comments area or the public forum thread system?
- We all know that Google hates ads or promoted linking. Where this come from frequently if not always?
- Real classical ads, come from the sidebar
- But tricky and shady promoted links always come from the MAIN content section.
- Hence, here is the footprint: If you are linking from the main content section with nofollow you are clearly saying to Google that your post is fishy as mad.
- This leads to the second point
- 2. In another video of the series:
- Mull talks about outbound link trustworthiness.
- His take on this topic is simple: If you write an article he assumes that if you are outbound linking, your sources have to GOOD enough to be trusted on. Otherwise, just don't put them if they are not trusty enough. This make sense to him.
- What is being telegraphed here?
- If we take in consideration the first point, we might assume that nofollow in the main content are plain dangerous for SEO purposes: they just clearly suggest some type of promoted content hence, our site could be "flagged" as a site which could be simply bought.
- My conclusion:
- I'm starting to think to abandon the practice of using Nofollow links within the main content and leave this for comment area or sidebars. I've been using nofollow links extensively, specially in certain clients which tend to abuse from links in their posts or those who have some commitments with 3rd parties and feel always forced to link them when there is some kind of relationship (for example, in a post talking about an event on which someone else collaborated, a vast list of collaborators links which provide no value, but are there just for pure compromise)
- Another conclusion: rich html has been promoted largely in the last years, but this could hinder SEO efforts. Obviously rich html offer a perfect footprint guideline to know which kind of text is featured in each part of the site. Probably rich html may help rank better, because it provides to Mr. G the guidelines to put some further penalties based on other aspects (like the ones mentioned in this topic). So its a double edge sword.
- I'm highly confident that d0follow in main content affect ranking but at the same time, nofollow in main content leave a clear footprint that something fishy is being cooked. So I don't have a clear position of how links may help or hinder website. This is something fascinating that should be tested, so I will put it in my cooking list.
