My friends i want to share our experience regarding do follow or no follow backlinks. Although do follow links are more beneficial for the site but is not that no follow links are bad for site it also necessary for the website to get traffic indicator to the site by which visitor come to your site. And you get huge traffic to the site. so no follow links are not hurt your site amount of do follow link is more than no follow backlinks.

Nofollow is html tag that website owners, add to links in their website for the search engines not to crawl, notice, or acknowledge a link. While a nofollow link is ignored, but popular social networking site like Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Myspace sites are nofollow, but they do provide a lot of other benefits.

NO,
No-follow links not harm your site anyway,
But Do-follow links have more importance in the eye of search engines than the no-follow links,
but if you really wanna do the good SEO on your website than ignore the no-follow or do-follow concept, just try to make the links from high page rank of website without worrying about no-follow and do-follow.

i don't think so..no follow doesn't count as back link to the site from search engine but it can be helpful as an traffic generate source if it's come from high pr sites.The idea behind a nofollow link is that a search engine will not click through a link flagged as such. A nofollow link can be good or bad depending on the context of how it is utilized.

I don't think that no follow links hurt a site, the only disadvantage of nofollow links is that they do not provide any benefit to you unless they are created in the high PR sites.

I don't think so ! :)

NoFollow(NoF) is also good as DoFollow(DoF) link, my opinion :(
NoF link is just something that the website backlink said to the bot :" I don't know that link, I don't connect with him. But he is not spammer".

Ofcouse, rel=nofollow ask spider/bot do not engage the link anymore. So, it also cannot hurt you site ! :)

There's another way for nofollows to hurt your site. If you use nofollow internally on a site, and go overboard with it, you run the risk of preventing good content from getting indexed. Although, if done right, that could be useful

Certainly not.No-follow links do not hurt any site.It is just that, these no-follow links do not pass any link value which can help in your Serp results.But in terms of link popularity you can have some amount of these links.

Any links could harm if they're originated from pоrn or linkfarm websites. Especially if it's a lot of them. But, if the donor sites are good then, yes, do follow links bring you PR (which is good) and nowfollow don't. But Google still like to see them. It indicate for google that you're regarded well by certain "community" (i.e. like, seo, marketing, parenting, cooking). That's why it's important to have ~80% back links from the sites that have info on the same subject.

There is no doubt for Do Follow & No follow Links. Well basically Do Follow links are useful more than no follow links ! No follow links don't count in Google & Do follow links counts. No follow links are not harmful but yes No follow links don't index in Google.

Actually it wont hurts,in one of the webmaster help video by Google, Matt cutts said that "If you are leaving comments on every blog in the world, even if those links might be nofollow, if you are doing it so much that people know you, and they're annoyed by you, and people spam report about you, we might take some manual spam action."

the keyword here is if you are doing it so much that people know you, and they're annoyed by you, and people spam report about you. So comment, but DO NOT SPAM

No they are not hurting your website. The only difference is that Link juice is not passed to your website. All the reference & also PR help is lost. You just not able to receive any kind of tracking reference from previous website.

Not at all. Nofollow links doesn't hurt any site.
In today's SEO world, forget about no-follow and do-follow and just try to get quality backlinks from highly authorized websites.

A No-follow link from high PR sites can be considered of a good value.

No-follow links does not hurt one's site as it does not passes any link juice. But to be safe don't get any no-follow links from irrelevant sites such as pоrn, virus effected sites, sites having content of racial discrimination etc.

Oh great, you're worried about nofollow links hurting your site? I've got some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that nofollow links are basically useless for SEO.
The good news is that you can use them to pad your link profile and make yourself feel good about having a bunch of links. In all seriousness, while nofollow links won't hurt your site, they won't help it either. So, focus on creating amazing content and earning real links from authoritative sources.

Links with the ""nofollow"" tag tell search engines not to provide the linked website link equity. Thus, they have no direct effect on raising search engine results. They don't necessarily harm your site, although. Actually, they provide a natural and well-balanced backlink profile that search engines value. Authenticity and natural growth are indicated by a combination of dofollow and nofollow links.

Increased referral traffic and possible backlinks from visitors who find your content through these nofollow links are examples of indirect SEO benefits that an SEO Services Company (https://www.firstdigiadd.com/) continues to gain by utilizing nofollow links to drive traffic and brand awareness from high-authority websites. Therefore, nofollow links are an essential component of a balanced SEO strategy, contributing to the development of reputation and a variety of traffic sources, even though they may not directly improve SEO. Long-term search engine optimization success is guaranteed by this well-rounded strategy.
