| I Follow | Wordpress Plug-in’s | Link Love |
February 29, 2008 | 2 Comments

Dear readers, I have been on the fence about this for a few months now. I recently got an increase in my google rankings which has prompted me to join the I follow crowd.
I want to actually reward visitors to my site for commenting. So now if you comment on my site your links will get spidered. by search engines.
Wordpress and other blogging platforms by default have the no follow tags used. This means that a person posting on your blog gets no seo credit for it.
Everyone knows having comments on your blog helps your seo ranking, So it stands to reason if you want some link love you should give some back.
The biggest concern I have read about in regards to the no follow /follow issue is the spam issue.
Well I have had my blog set to no follow for the longest time, I still got tons of spam. I think in theory it was a good idea
but it hurts people who are honestly adding quality content comments. So from this day forward all the links on my blog will be followed. Spam will get deleted immediately.
I encourage blogging to my readers because I have seen a influx in my seo and traffic because of my blog. I have used backlinking as a main strategy which has helped my rankings. I want to give you the opportunity to use my pagerank to increase yours. Its the blogging way !
Here is a list of wordpress plug-ins you can use to get rid of the nofollow tag.
There is already a ton of information on this subject so I won’t go into great detail
Go ahead and comment it will get followed.
