@Find a Puppy : I’m trying to find a way to allow organic links in comments AND combat spamming. We receive hundreds of thousands of spam comments per day, some of which make it through the filters. Once we can kill all of the crap spam in the system, we’ll then get rid of no follow.

The last think I want is to know that the link juice from my comments on my site is assisting spammers.

You know, when I find a blog that purports to give advice about link building, or about SEO in general, I always wonder if they really have their visitors interests at heart when they turn on the NoFollow attribute in the comments section, as was done here.

I think what Digitalnomad meant to say was, how does it build link juice?

If it is “no follow” how does it help build authority and traffic?

Sort of ad hoc customer support by proxy.

I like the personal branding slant. It’s building authority, Kung Fu style.

And it’s authority which is by far the most visible currency that anyone will feel the benefit of by participating…

Have there been any great posts on the other Answer sites as well? I’ve been finding Guru, Yahoo Answers, this pay per call answer site (forget the URL) and then Google Answers which is actually rather easy to get into, although the answers are always terribly complicated.

Anyways, I will get onto SMO with Yahoo Answers immediately, great tip. Thanks!

Yahoo recently announced a new mission statement, which is to “connect people”.

Thank goodness – this is much more promising than “life engine”.
