Hey Ive Noticed that some places where you can post your link to your website like comments on blogs have rel="nofollow" in the a href tag. Does this mean that google etc will ignore this link completely and it will not help your page rank at all? Links to my site that have rel="nofollow" still show up on yahoo site explorer so I'm kinda confused as to what this actually does.

I once had a hard drive clunk-clicking
Strange noises, weird sounds and tick-ticking
I thought I would wait
And procrastinate...
But now all my data is missing

read a line from standard in

.so a library that is shared
.ko it's not the same as .so
tee, a redirect with in and out
and brings us back to dd d d d

Google is always a great name for all and their crawlers work better than others.

Google does not attribute pagerank for nofollow but in reality dose follow the link. So if you want to index your site then the nofollow link might still help.

There are other theories too, and the answer is not very clear in reality - what I said is just my opinion.

If the link is no follow, google will completely ignore the link.
