A Link is a link

A link is a link is a link, better have it even if it’s nofollow. It will still be great for human traffic.

No-follow do have its good stuff

Even though it would look like it, no-follow does obviously not help with the direct rank of the page or specifically in the shorter term, instead it truly helps with the ranking in the higher term. If you will get a link from a high PR site that will be related t your topic, even if you would have only 2 or 3 no-follow links, you could gain a PR of 3 or even higher. Something do-follow will not be able to accomplish.

Some no follow links still

Some no follow links still pass juice in my opinion, we had a link from wikipedia once and the PageRank on our site went upto a 3.

I think nofollow is a good

I think nofollow is a good thing (and I'm a webmaster). A link is a link, and that will bring traffic if it's in the right place. There are plenty of other ways to drive traffic to a website. I don't actually believe that google completely ignores the nofollows anyway.

I agree

I have to agree and do think that there is some juice that is given to NoFollow links that come from certain sites. I think it truly depends on the relevance of the link as well as the type of site the link come from.

I agree

I think that if the site gets good traffic and can pass some of that traffic on to your site then thats great. I mean the ultimate goal of link building is increasing rankings and increased rankings mean increased traffic (most of the time) so you are basically just cutting out the middle man (seach engines) and going to the goal of increased traffic.

Webmaster console shows no follow links

We all know the intent of no follow's but has anyone noticed the fact Google shows them in Webmaster console. To me that means the links are not totally discredited.

I follow the crowd on this one because I love traffic (isn't that the reason why we market in search engines). The website where your link is located doesn't need allot of traffic because as long as you didn't put that much effort into the link isn't it worth it if only a handful of people found the website.

Just my 2 cents.

nofollowed? Traffic is a must...

Buy it only if it comes with big clicks.

I pick No Follow

I'm with the no follow crowd as long as there is actual traffic coming from the link and the traffic is he type of publoc you want coming to your site. Which would be the same as backing adspace some where and it prevents the your site from getting into any problems with the link being considered "buying links" by Google.

Good article

I could see the value of a high-traffic site linking to mine even if it was a no-follow. It would have to be very relevantly placed and use good anchor text though for me to pay for it.

I think its good for paid links as this should for traffic and not listings

Online visibility

Nofollow will help in no ways because it can not get crawled by SEs. We can use for advertise to make better online visiblity.

Link Juice Isn't Everything

Effective online marketing that produces a reasonable amount of new business is worth the time and effort; regardless of the nofollow tag. Nice to see someone bring this to light since a lot of people are blinded by the PageRank game.

All depends on traffic

As long as they're bringing me targeted traffic in healthy numbers, i don't care if they're followed or nofollowed.

"As long as they're bringing

"As long as they're bringing me targeted traffic in healthy numbers, i don't care if they're followed or nofollowed."

Like you said, as long as it brings in targeted traffic (tons), my own take on this is that not all links are acquired just for SEO purposes. Depending on the vertical in which your in can play a big role, when working for a serviced office company it didnt matter whether a link was nofollowed or followed. But it was important that people knew what we did.
