Question How to know if any blog/site/forum is dofollow or nofollow?

Guys

I want to know how I can check before posting at any blog/forum/site if that is dofollow or nofollow?

I posted on many forums but later came to know those forums were nofollow and I don't want to waste my time again.

Hi,

Install "SEO for Firefox" tool. This shows if a link on a webpage is nofollow or dofollow. If the link turns red it is a Nofollow link if it changes to whatever the website standard is then it is a dofollow link.

I installed SEO Tool for Firefox and visited one forum but all urls/links are with red background, what it does means?

You could check the source code also, it depends on whether there is a nofollow tag around the link.

You could know it by two methods, the one is checking the source code directly, other is using the tool of SEO, such as www.quirk.biz/searchstatus, maybe it could help you.

The easiest way is to use the Firefox plugin which will check to see if sites are dofollow.

Too much work, easy way is using firefox addons specifically designed for the purpose.

some answers above are correct but why do you care?
Aren't you supposed to post in blogs and forums to contribute to it, and by giving a good answer, making people want to click on your link and come to your site, then buy your products??

nah...it's more fun to chase links for the sake of a useless bar named PR right?

building links in some nofollow sites out there is far from a waste of time. Take twitter for example.
