Too bad that had to nofollow

Too bad that had to nofollow those links. It always seems the spammers make it worse for us.

Is nofollow still working?

Stop spam

I think the move makes sense. Without nofollow in place, authority websites get spammed. It is unfortunate that this is the way it works, but fundamentally it is the way of the Internet at the moment.

Ridiculous

The whole idea of ridiculous, there has to be better ways to credit valid comments than nofollowing an entire website.

It's like buildig the bank underground because one or two people every century might consider robbing it.

Not really sure about that.

Not really sure about that. The fact is that there is spam in Twitter and people are starting to sell twitter accounts. What a bunch of crocks!

I very love Follow linkĀ

Interesting

 

That does seem like an effective way of reducing spam, and the solution proposed by Cutts to drop the nofollow after a certain criteria has been me, seems like a good one.

Agreed

Adding nofollow will probably help reduce spam since it is a "new" phenomenon. But if someone writes a curl script to automatically create new accounts, the spam will be more than ever. A nofollow tag won't work..

Nofollow will still work

Sure, someone can automatically create accounts but they will still not get any value from them which makes it a rather pointless exercise.

I think twitter should follow profile links of users based on certain criteria like age of the account, no of followers etc.

Oops

Wrong homepage :o
