Verified Dofollow Backlinks
Many "dofollow" lists are outdated or fake. We verify these monthly—confirmed dofollow links from high-authority sites.
Dofollow vs Nofollow: What Actually Matters
Dofollow links pass PageRank and directly influence rankings. Nofollow links don't—at least not directly. But here's the nuance most guides miss: Google treats nofollow as a "hint" now, not a directive. A nofollow link from the New York Times probably influences your rankings anyway.
- Pass PageRank (link equity)
- Directly influence rankings
- Default state (no rel attribute)
- What SEOs traditionally chase
- Don't directly pass PageRank
- Still send referral traffic
- Build brand awareness
- Google may follow as "hint"

Dofollow Guest Post Sites
These publications allow dofollow links in author bios or within content. More effort than profiles—you need to pitch and write quality content—but significantly higher quality links as a result.

Dofollow Directory Links
Most directories are nofollow, but these verified directories pass actual link equity. They tend to have stricter editorial standards—which is partly why they're willing to pass equity. Quality in, quality out.

How to Verify Dofollow Status
Inspect Element
Right-click the link, choose "Inspect". If there's no rel="nofollow" attribute, it's dofollow.
Chrome Extensions
NoFollow extension highlights nofollow links. SEOquake and MozBar also show link attributes on any page.
SEO Tools
Ahrefs, SEMrush, and Moz crawl tools show the rel attribute for every backlink in their index.
Dofollow Isn't Everything
A nofollow link from a DA 90 site that sends 1,000 real visitors is more valuable than a dofollow from a DA 20 spam site. Traffic, relevance, and authority matter more than the rel attribute.
Natural link profiles include both dofollow and nofollow. A site with 100% dofollow links looks suspicious to Google. Don't obsess over the attribute—focus on quality.
Never Buy Dofollow Links
"500 dofollow links for $99" is a trap. Google explicitly penalizes paid link schemes. Those links come from spam networks that can tank your rankings. One penalty can undo years of legitimate SEO work.
