If you have been posting to blogs on Blogger or Typepad thinking that you were getting a great inbound link to your website. Know that in addition to Blogger (we posted about this previously) now Typepad inserts a rel=”no follow” command in the code to all links in comments.
So don’t waste your time trying to raise your link numbers or organic positions by posting to blogs now. You can still post to mine, I love to hear your comments, but mine is a Blogger blog so you won’t get any flow through benefit to your site just as you now will not on Typepad blogs.
What about WordPress? Is this the same situation? Just checked one of the blogs we work on and here’s the source code on the link rel=’external nofollow‘ so same situation in WordPress.
That does not mean if when you blog your links are set up as no follows, jut the links that are left in comments!
