Google says, we must add nofollow attribute to every irrelevant outbound link in a site to be safe from Panda and Penguin effects. So, it is important for every blogger to know what is nofollow and how to add it.
Thanks for the video.
Thank You for this info! Thank you for helping me learn something new today!
Very interesting! I have no idea about no follow links, never bother about it before. Now I get it. Thanks to your super easy tutorial.
With FTC being so strict now, this is a great post for all bloggers.
Do you also mean affiliate links since I get paid if someone buys through my links?
I actually do believe that you are supposed to do this with affiliate links as well. Here’s a post I found very helpful: http://www.thehobbyblogger.com/nofollow-affiliate-links/

Thanks so much for sharing. The video was short and informative. Learned something new Jana!!!
Absolutely fabulous!!! I had heard of “no follow” links – just had no idea how,when, or why to use them 😉
Thanks very much!!
this is helpful, i think in blogger you can just press a no follow button but I think you need to highlight the link first…do you think this is the same?
In blogger you can just use the button. Highlight the link and click “no follow” but be warned that it doesn’t always work and sometimes changing it in the html format ends up saving you time in the long run.
I have a no-follow plug-in that I just love. Great tutorial Jana! Love seeing you on SITS.
Great info on no follow links! Thank you!
Hi –
I’ve been trying to figure this out myself recently.
One question – Is it definite you need a ‘nofollow’ for a product giveaway without compensation? Google does say ‘paid’ links, but I’m unclear if the ‘giveaway’ is necessarily the same as paid.
Any sources you could provide to clarify? Thanks so much for writing this! 🙂
I’d say always err on the side of nofollow. The giveaway site doesn’t need the link juice, and even though it’s unpaid, it’s still a promotional link which Google considers less valuable to readers. See here

I would err on the safe side like Bryan said and make those no follow links as it is still a promotional link.
Great video. Very simple and clear…. I really thought I needed a plug-in and didn’t realize the html for it was that easy.
Thanks
