Dofollow and contact
I have read earlier about the “i-follow” idea and planned to implement it on my blogs. Unfortunately, other things came up and I completely forgot about it. If you wonder what the I follow movement might be, here is a short history: With the increasing number of spam comments almost all of the blogging tools (including WordPress) include a code snippet in their files that tells search engines not to follow the links to the commenters sites. It seemed a good idea to punish the spammers seeking some SE “juice” - but in the same time it was disadvantageousfor legitimate commenters. If they take the time to stop at your blog and post a comment… why should they be “punished” by cutting the backlink to their own blog/site?
The other day I have visited my fellow moderator, HandySolo’s blog and read about his implementation of the dofollow plugin. Actually, I went to read that post because I noticed the “You comment - I follow” logo in the sidebar. You can see a similar one on the right under ETCETERA. It is from Randa Clay’s blog.
Later I will install the plugin on my other blogs, too.
About Contact. Unfortunately, I put a wrong email address in the contact form when I set it up in a hurry. Which means, if you tried to send me a message before yesterday, that never arrived. Please, re-send your message, the form now works (has been tested). If yoou have any questions or suggestions regarding the book, and you don’t want to comment here, don’t hesitate to contact me personally through the form.
And now back to keyboard…

Its ironic that many bloggers talk about this but then they actually use no follow.

Hi,
Its interesting.Yes i had noticed in many blogs they are providing no follow or external no follow tags.Its the good way to punish the spammers but at the same time it is the bad one for really a good commentators.I had gone through that dofollow plugin link which you had mentioned in your post.Thats good!
