Is DaniWeb follow or nofollow?

May 11th, 2008
Hello all. I read on the web that this forum website was a follow site (towards links) back in 2004. Then I read it is nofollow in 2006. So I am confused. Which one would it be? Thanks for the input.

Not sure what your question is. The specification for the nofollow attribute was first officially created in 2005, and we began using it not long after.

To the best of my knowledge this site is do follow and not no follow. I can't be certain but I have found that my posts in this fourm can indexed by Google quite easily and I have already found some of my posts when I search in Google directly by my Company name. I think that if I could find my posting son Google this forum is most likely not no follow. In either case I have found Daniweb to be good for seo and indexing.

How to check if site is no follow/do follow?
===========================
Through Firefox
Right-click the link in the comments section to click on Properties. If the pop-up box says nofollow then that's what it is. If it doesn't mention nofollow, then it's not nofollow.
Hope this clear things out.
