Removal of Nofollow from Comment Section
Published by: Eron of Talk Loud | Dated: 19th of June, 2008Why do you post comments when you visit blogs? As I know there are two reasons for it, first reason is that you are posting because you like the topic and the second is that you like the topic and you want to promote your website or blog using your anchor text.

I just found out that I am now getting lots of comments from my posted topics. Talk Loud is only a less month old blog and before only my friends are giving out comments but now I am approving comments from real visitors and I am happy with that. To what I said about the second reason for why visitors are posting comments, I am now removing the “nofollow” for links on the comment section. This is a special attribute only used for search engine reading. Most blogs that is running on wordpress are set the “nofollow” as enable by default. You can only disable this when you install a plugin. If you want to remove it also you can try this dofollow plugin for wordpress. This is just a simple way to say thank you to my future visitors and commentors.
By the way, I had placed a banner below the comment form and a badge on sidebar to show you that this is a nofollow free blog.

on the sidebar
























You did the right way!
Thank you.
Nice one there Eron!
This will help a lot to all bloggers out there.
I try to remember that comments are content as well. So, to me, it makes little sense for bots to not crawl comment links. But I don’t make those decisions.
