I haven’t installed version 9.9.5 yet, but with your interesting information, I will surely remove the tag.

narendra.s.vs last blog post..Download 25 Most Beautiful FireFox Desktop Wallpapers

What exactly you mean now!

I am new for Ppligg and i will build traffic soon with the other site which have a high hit.

Could you please make it clear for me on what to do at this time.

Should i use dofollow or nofollow???

In general again, which is the best for newbies? And which line of link_summary.tpl should i do that.

Thanks

@Bini, for new installs of Pligg I wouldn’t use the nofollow tag as it can discourage potential members from taking the time to submit their content.

In the latest version of Pligg, open your link_summary.tpl file and remove the 4 instances of this tag.

They are all located in the section using div=top

Hopefully this helps.

I would like to see your pligg install when you have it up and running, leave us a link here is you like.

Below is my code! Now Remove it and give me the correct code please.

@Bini, you have added a lot of nofollow tags there.

I have uploaded your link_summary.tpl file and is ready for you to download.

I have removed the nofollow tags from the code that actually links to the submitted story, the rest of the nofollow tags are still in there.

You can grab your file at http://www.pliggs.com/download/19/

I can’t Download the File.
Can i get another download link please, Thanks for all your HELPs!!

Interesting stuff. Im a wordpress newbie but anything that can be done to stop spamm blogging and clean up the net is great

Thanks for sharing this. It’s really helpful, especially now that I am starting to learn SEO

check the black hat forums, pligg has become center point for spamming techniques due to dofollow. I think instead of making everything nofollow a better solution can be made, avoiding spam too

Awesome info, great read. I added this site to my favs and look forward to reading more!

Will all these types of sites become nofollow eventually?

Does anyone know if there has been any spammers found a way round no follow attributes?

I only ask because I notice the one of the links on my site has nofollow but it still shows up on searches

The “nofollow” attribute doesn’t prevent backlinks, it only prevents the backlink from having any link juice or passing on any pagerank.

The website will still get a backlink though.

I like dofollow… It’s hard to get good quality links, and it’s kind of a charitable thing to do.

Thanks for the detailed guide!
My favorite thing about nofollow free is that it’s a great way to get tons of people to comment on your blog. It can literally make the difference between no comments and hundreds of comments, on some sites!

Pligg unfortunately is so heavily spammed that you have to use nofollow, no alternative.

Now I´m drinking my tea – and go to bed. Thanks, nice post.
