How do you rate links from sites like Twitter and Facebook?

[turkeyhomes]

So .edu and .gov could or could be good, Twitter and FB are a consideration but then there is the nofollow issue - if anyone got anything definitive out of this they saw something that I didn't.

Very good info Matt...

[FilmJenkins]

I THOUGHT I was computer literate...

Thanks...

[matheussousuke]

I've been doing a lot of baldlinks this week, oops, backlinks. Well, even if it that's Nofollow, most people got to have in mind that they make their SEO in order to attract more visitors, not more spyders.

Search engines are getting smarter day by day. Thanks to Matt. Cutts.

[mjdayetube]

hehe a link from a .gov doesn't necessarily have more weight....riigghhhtttt.

[YellowGreenMedia]

@mjdayetube Its true, i have tested it myself .edu doesn't give "extra powers"

[hossxxxx]

Hair cut looks goofy, like everyone else who who goes for the bald look, very few people look good that way and most people who have gone bald naturally wood give up their right arm to have the hair you cut off. Go for it though, goofy is a right you can really exploit if you want to.

[JulianKooijmans]

you look better WITH hair

[saud10]

Some of the twitter feeds with links are syndicated on other sites. and if these sites are no follow does that help in improoving the rank of the site that is linked to?

[frankykerney]

Nice information. So I have to make my profile public for Google to crawl my links.

[lingustica]

WOW, you look so much better with no hair! I love bald heads or very short hair, so thank you for being eye candy!

[webseoranking]

Hi Matt - you look like one of the Google marines, fighting spam on the frontiers of the internet. Samper fi!

[HairaSarah]

[GENTLEGOOGLE]

Dear Bald Googler , Not to worry , if you lost a " bet " you " won " something even more " valuable " , probably some more friends *****, but most important a " vigorous " hair " growth from it's root, as if you were a baby , now it will grow faster and healthier than before ... You see what I mean ... And also , intresting your social videos explanation in a simple way ... All the best GENTLEGOOGLE

[600RR4Life]

no one cares.

[recca231]

i thought its different guy... hehehehehe.. nice new look

[ukjim]

Regardless of what Matt says (but mentions in a round about way), everyone forgets about robots.txt files on these sites. Google cannot get to Facebook users pages because they have to be logged in. And certain types of pages are prevented being indexed by its robots.txt file. Same goes for Twitter, which puts NOFOLLOW tag into public pages, but where search results pages might "look" like they do not have NOFOLLOW tags on them, the Twitter robots.txt file prevents Google crawling them anyway.

[womenscastle]

@ukjim Exactly what I was about to post. I have the Firefox nofollow add on. It highlights the nofollow links in red. All Facebook links come up as nofollow. No matter what the privacy setting is.

[oferelhashar2]

Thanks it is actually great news.

I found that a ''young website'' with high traffic that mentioned regularly, like mine suddenly is up before many other big websites with endless backlinks.

It is great thank you!

[visionbeyond99]

[tautvys92]

Nice haircut and funny/clear videos. Thanks.

[m0r1arty]

I asked this on your blog but how do you get Twitter to do follow and no-follow links?

Thanks for the vids - just getting started on them now.

[okebaram]

How much do they pay you to do this?

Yeah I know this won't be replied, but cool company/career...

[wis3384]

nice bet u lost lol hehehe nice 2 c u again

[IAmCasinoJack]

Great vid, thanks for the hair response, I been scratching my head.. In fact I did so much, I lost my hair.

[Unkn0wnGuy]

So does google still rank a link if it's a nofollow?

[Nickolie0990]

From my limited understanding, Google still crawls the page regardless of nofollow tag, the nofollow tag simple dosen't allow the flow of page rank too the link. If you don't want the page to be index, then use the noindex meta tag.

[Unkn0wnGuy]

Right that's how I have come to understand it as well. Even though the PR doesn't follow through, does google still "add a point" to your website rank?

I understand if you don't know the answer but hopefully someone here knows.

[MMOStars]

nofollow doesn't pass the PR, but the bot follows all links.

[ansonwilson]

Thanks for the videos. However, if feel this really didn't address the question directly enough to be helpful in this instance... I understand there is a certain amount of secrecy behind the formula, but simply saying that nofollow links affect the way the spiders work isn't exactly a revelation. Any way you can clarify a bit?
