Why some sites allow NoFollow links?

[alvin_raj]

I found that there are many sites which allow NoFollow links. DoFollow is ok for those who are working for SEO and link submission, like me, but why some sites allow NoFollow links, how is it beneficial for it? Because NoFollow is not beneficial for us, SEO and most of do not like to submit links to NoFollow links.

Spiders will do what they want, regardless of whether you add a nofollow attribute in your code or not. Furthermore, it's usually the "nofollow" links that provide interesting information to "bad" spiders. All you're really doing by adding nofollow is telling spiders you don't want them going there. Good spiders will respect that, bad spiders won't. If you want a page to really be hidden, put it behind a password.

It's a way to push back a decent amount of spamming hits by either bots or persons in order to keep entries relevent and of a good quality.

Why webmasters are allowing nofollows? Because it looks natural to have a mix of do and no follow links. Its pretty non-organic looking to have 100% dofollow links to your site. They still pass some information back to google.

Its also creates super high trust flow, but low citation flow. When you only link from dofollows.

whether no-follow backlinks don't supplies juice that can make your blog/website rank higher but they still can supply us traffic.
Remember, if the page you are linking to is irrelevant or has the low quality you should make it as no-follow. It's good SEO practice.

All links here, except for approved businesses in our resources area, are nofollow for the reasons above!

Some sites allow NoFollow links to prevent spam, maintain control over link equity, and avoid passing ranking benefits to untrusted or paid links, ensuring better content quality and fair practices.

I guess you are asking this because you wish that most websites used DoFollow link so you can easily milk the SEO to your website. But I think the actual question to be asked right now is why do some websites allow DoFollow links.

To ask why many websites "allow" NoFollow is absurd if you understand how SEO works, because many websites would love to use the NoFollow link. The question could be better put as "Why do many websites "use" nofollow links.

Well, I think the reason why most websites use NoFollow links is because too many low quality websites linking to them could also bring their SEO ranking down.
