I think this feature has created a lot of confusion. But if the whole idea of no follow is conceptually clear then it will definitely boost your site’s ranking

Glad they reversed that decision. It is good for all of us.

Hey, my experience is that Google slaps a nofollow on when you create the profile but then makes them dofollow about 4-6 weeks later….
so maybe there is some kind of review process…

Yeah, this is a bummer for sure. I just finished creating a new account and profile only to notice the bad news once I was all finished. Oh well, it’s a good thing that I have a few of the “aged” accounts still in reserve )

Seems like verywhere we turn, Google is working against the SEO people. I guess it makes sense, in thier world, but what is the average joe to do to compete with the major brands.

I would bet Google’s just slapping nofollow on all the new ones, not waiting for quality to set in. That’s just a guess, but I wouldn’t wait for it.

Yeah, as I wrote in the article, new profiles are nofollow, while old ones seem to have been grandfathered in.

No experience. I have just tried to open a new profile and it was nofollow. I just could not understand why other profiles were dofollow. Your theory would explain that. Even if I find it unfair.
Don’t you think it could just be a matter of time and quality of the opened profile before new ones become dofollow? Maybe Google is just trying to do what everyone online has to do: avoid spammers!
