Do-follow blogs on the other hand do not use the “no-follow” attribute in their links. This allows search engines to index the links in comments and pass page rank accordingly. As a result, commenting on these blogs offers improved SEO benefits.

Good points from , , , and — the thread correctly flags commenting as a source of referral traffic and profile exposure. The missing piece is practical, up-to-date guidance for making comments useful today (not just chasing “dofollow” tags): how to mark links, where they actually help, and how to measure them.

Modern link-attribute guidance: Google now treats link attributes as signals or “hints” rather than absolute rules, and recommends using rel="ugc" for user-generated links (comments/forums) and rel="sponsored" for paid placements; nofollow remains supported for cases you don’t want to endorse. For site owners who allow comments, prefer marking comment links as UGC and keep moderation in place. (developers.google.com)
Google: Evolving "nofollow" — new ways to identify (https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/qualify-outbound-links).

Practical checklist (apply these instead of mass-commenting): keep comments substantive and topical; choose blogs read by the target audience rather than the highest “dofollow” list; use real names and complete profiles; avoid exact-match anchored spam; monitor whether platforms automatically add rel values or strip links; and track referral clicks in analytics. Use Search Console’s Links report to see who links and what anchor text Google has found. ()
.

When opening external links in a new tab, include the security attribute(s) to avoid tabnabbing (for example rel="noopener noreferrer" together with target="_blank"), and add rel="ugc" for comment links if the system allows combined values (e.g., rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"). (developer.mozilla.org)
MDN: rel="noopener".

Final note: comment links are most valuable for targeted referral traffic, relationship-building and brand signals — not as a primary, scalable ranking tactic. Focus on quality participation and content that earns editorial links.
