Blog Design Studio

Daniel has written a wonderful post explaining the change in the algorithm of Google and how the search engine giant handles the infamous “nofollow” attribute for the links. He gave an example to explain the change that was done around 1 yr. back however, only came into highlight after Matt Cutts (Head of web spam team at Google), discussed about it at latest SMX event.

While we can’t ever say that things will never change in our algorithms, we do not expect this to change again. If it does, I’ll try to let you know.

This statement comes from Matt Cutts and most likely it seems that Google isn’t planning to change this feature of the algorithm anytime soon. If that’s the case then it will be really beneficial for all of us to leave comments on various blogs. Although, this goes as negative for your own blog too, however we can easily balance it out by leaving comments on other blogs.

Well, this change will surely attract bloggers to use services like Disqus & IntenseDebate. These services have Javascript based comment forms and thus the link love will not be shared. Will you install any plugin of such sort to ensure that your PageRank flows in the right manner?

Anyway, if you didn’t find any other good reason to leave comments, here’s one for you! Leave comment on the competitor’s blog and you’d gain, he’ll gain as he’s getting comments and that’d benefit both of you [Evil Grin]
