Dofollow concept is based on one of the principles of market economy – barter, benefiting both parties. The commenter receives a free link to his site, and the blogger gets an interesting comment. This method has become very popular nowadays.

Lets discuss more about this:
NoFollow – An attribute tag a Hypertext Markup Language Web pages, HTML, this points to search engines like Google, MSN and Yahoo to the fact that such references and index into account when ranking the issue is not necessary. For example, <a href=”http://www.example.ru” rel=”nofollow”> Anchor </ a>.

Noindex – A special tag used by search engines index and crawler for similar purposes. Text or links enclosed in it is doesn’t get indexed and are not included in the search engine results. For example, <noindex> this text is not indexed </ noindex>.

An example of integrated nofollow and noindex:

<noindex>

<a rel=”nofollow” href=”http://www.example.ru”> Anchor </ a>

</ noindex>

If your blog is not attributed with nofollow – then it is called dofollow-blog.

In the blogosphere there is dofollow movement under the slogan “Your comment, my reference”. Campaigners removed the nofollow attribute to all links in the comments, such as blogs can be found on a small banner with the slogan dofollow-motion.

By default blogs which are running on WORDPRESS CMS are attributed with  rel = “nofollow”.  Such links, as noted above, is not indexed by Google, but search engine index their account.

How TO Find dofollowBlogs?

Methods of promoting in blogs that are dofollow has been in the practice since a long time. The main problem is do-follow blogs are becoming very less because of spamming. Secondly, for the effective promotion it doesn’t need dozens of dofollow-blogs.

During the existence of dofollow-movement there were several relatively independent ways to find blogs of its own. Each optimizer selects and uses those that are most convenient to him, at its discretion. Consider the basic methods of searching dofollow-blogs.

1. Using search engines

This is the easiest and most “primitive” method, which requires much time, patience and perseverance.

It is very time-consuming task, especially for a beginner. First, the majority of blogs you get in the results are nofollow, secondly, it is very difficult to find the blogs, where you can place a link to your site, rather than a profile page, third, checking the source page is very time consuming.

As mentioned earlier, many of the resources belonging to dofollow-movement, adds a special information banners that tell visitors that the blog is dofollow. Typically, image files have standard names, for example — ifollowblue.gif, ifollowwhite.gif, ifollow.png, ifollow.jpg etc. Through their search on sites, the optimizer can thereby find dofollow-blogs. However, there are a few drawbacks – firstly, carrying out a search, so it is impossible to track topics of blogs, secondly, not all blogs put pictures on their pages, and thirdly – not all images have the standard names.

2. Collate dofollow-blogs

In the Internet you can find ready-made collection of blogs that are dofollow-grouped by categories and sorted by PR pages.

If you get a ready-made collection of blogs, it means that someone before you has already done all work on finding, filtering, sorting and selecting it. This is a difficult and laborious process, so some people share large collection of dofollow-blogs for free or they sometimes even charge some pennies. And the prices are quite high. Internet – a dynamic environment where there are constantly new blogs and change existing ones, so the kits are ready to quickly become obsolete. In order to keep them up to date, you must regularly perform a specific list of work indicating that high-quality collection of blogs cannot be free.

However, sometimes you can still find free lists of dofollow-blogs. What distinguishes them from paid? – Much smaller size? or low relevance?. Many SEOs are looking for such kits, filtered and connect them together. The result is carefully concealed and used as a competitive advantage or … sold for money.
