Realtrix: thanks for commenting. My experience on this blog has been much the same - since going dofollow I have had many more comments and interaction than before.

Basically, the internet is one giant poll to Google, and each link counts as a vote. There are other factors that intefere, but we’ll keep it as is for simplicity’s sake. The more links you have, the more popular your site is - and that’s exactly what Google wants to find, the most popular/authorative sites on the web.

The NoFollow attribute tells Google, “Don’t count this link as a vote for this website”. Whilst Google might still crawl the website’s content, it definitely does not add any link-weight. Well done, you’ve now penalized both the legitimate commenters as well as the spammers. Makes sense.

I’ve made one of my blogs into a dofollow blog and here are my results (in comparison to a number of other, more popular, nofollow blogs that I own):

1. More comments.
2. Discussion. Because my links were carrying link-juice, and I was only accepting good quality comments, I ended up with proper, meaningful discussion that was pertinent to the article. I’m sure many of you bloggers only get spam and scraper comments

Albert: staying on top of who is, or is no longer Dofollow is a challenge, yeah. So if you know of any sites that should be added or notice any sites coming up that are no longer Dofollow, please let me know via the notification mechanism.

I hope your website well and I hope providing free dofollow sites won’t be too much a burden for you. It will help me a lot, Thanks.

Atniz: At last count there were around 300. Yes, it’s a problem keeping up with changes to people’s comment policies.

Great work there. It is a google custom search engine (cse) tool. Can I know how many URLs have been submitted in your cse? A lot of sites in commenthunt is nofollow now. I have a list of more than 30 urls in commenthunt that are nofollow. Maintaining good source of dofollow link is a tough job. Thanks for providing this service to us for free.

Great post, the tool I use for finding dofollow and nofollow blogs is the G-Lock blog finder. Although I only have the free version, it still does the job.

commenthunt is also another good dofollow blog service.

Cheers
