Let The World Know You “Do Follow”
By
Randa Clay has given us all a present today! She has created a series of very snappy badges for your blog to let the world know that if a reader leaves you a comment, you will return the favor with a followed link.
If you want to get in on the movement, here are the tools you will need:
Using Wordpress? Use the Semilogic Do Follow Plugin OR
Using Blogger? Here are the Blogger Do Follow Instructions THEN
PS – The Essential Tools series will be back next week!

This is the greatest thing to happen to blogs since…the internet.
I mean seriously, think of all the free link love, and also the comments per blog will go wayyy up!
Thanks and keep up the good work!

I think you made the right desision to follow the movement. I just found out that google is telling webmaster that they should include the nofollow in paid text links.
they can also report this too. I enjoy a good blog. but if I find they use nofollow I feel like it’s a kick in the teeth. So I want you to know that I will contenue to read your blog and be coming back. I think this is what reader want in a blog.

This is such an amazing concept. I have been able to do a lot of great reading because of do-follows that would help me find sites that I would never had known about. I think this gives all of the blogging community a tighter connection. What have you seen so far from it?

The more I read about this, the more I’m convinced I have to change my template. I have a blog on the new blogger platform. The template I currently have is a custom template and I really like it, but I can’t figure out how to take the “no follow” off. I think it may be because the code is not in English….
It’s just soo time consuming to replace the template, especially when I have 14 other blogs and…7 kids.

That kind of info is really valuable. I´ll change my template right now to follow comments.
Thanks a lot and feel free to visit me any day to have some fun.

This is a really interesting concept.
I’m sure the search engines are going to eventually compensate for this strategy, but for now it’s good.

This movement is catching fire day by day.

I don’t really understand this do follow movement, half the people who proclaim themselves as supporters seem to no follow anyway. Is it all an elaborate marketing ruse?

Lbug – many of us on the list did follow but then the list started being used by spammers and others wanting to game the system and they many of us – myself included changed our minds.
