Do you follow? I do follow.

This blog does follow. Are you wondering what following means? It has to do with - you guess it - links. Comment spam is a nasty problem that bloggers deal with. No follow means that a link in a comment shouldn’t be trusted, so it isn’t counted as a backlink. Now I write my blogs using Wordpress, which by default is no follow. I have the akismet plugin activated and I have all comments on moderation. So I am sure link spam is not getting through. I installed the do follow plug in, because I feel anyone that took the time to read something on my blog and comment about it deserves a vote for their link. The do follow plugin removes the no follow attribute from comments. It can be found at semiologic.com/software/wp-fixes/dofollow/ and it’s free for the taking.
