How to Check  Dofollow and Nofollow Links

This post on how to check whether link is dofollow or nofollow allows you to easily check the kinds of links on webpages which can either be dofollow or nofollow. Before commenting/guest posting on blogs, posting on sites/forums in order to build backlinks, itll be useful to check if the links on the  page are dofollow or nofollow. Link ‘rel attribute‘ defines the type of link and by checking this attribute you can tell one from the other. Unlike nofollow links which Google crawlers and other search engine bots do not follow, dofollow links have an HTML property of the tag rel=”dofollow” which tells Search Engine bots to crawl the links, thereby passing the link juice to the linked page.  By checking if other comments/links on the page are dofollow or nofollow, you can spend more time building quality dofollow backlinks to your blog, which can help in indexing your site, improve  your blogs rank in search engines and its popularity.
