Will Google penalize sites which only link using the nofollow attribute?

[ysaneyoshi]

Thank you Google!

Wikipedia is quite an unreliable source of information because anyone could just modify it. False information can be easily posted.

i only have 'temporary' and 'permanent' option under

"link? options"... no 'cloaked' option at all. any idea why? thx

If you run a blog, you should be using nofollow for comments, since you cant always catch the poor quality sites they may link to, and THAT can hurt your rankings.

wikipedia doesnt give a crap about reputation. how evil

[Borror0]

What's the name of the site he named? Nold?

[MostlyAidan]

@Borror0 Knol I think it was.

I think you completely avoided the intent of the question. For example, every external link on wikipedia is nofollow. It's up to Google's to decide whether or not to "obey" the nofollow tag.

As a webmaster, should every external link on my site be nofollow?

[oldexbeat]

@JohnTarrJr you're right, he did and when wikipedia changed all the editor selected links to no-follow it brought down some good sites in the rankings and pushed up -- duh -- wikipedia. I think it was an insult to their editors' selections. I changed all wikipedia links (through out 1,000s of page) to no-follow.

i refreshed and it was on 360p!!!

[qwv803]

why are the first few views in 240p ???

[Y4lt]

@qwv803 youtube needs to process the video for hight quality.

[GoogleWebmasterHelp]

@qwv803 You're just too fast for us! ;-) The video becomes available as soon as the first transcoding is complete, so you caught it before the other versions were finished processing. Don't worry, we upload in 1080p, so you should see that available soon.

[Nanowarex]

@GoogleWebmasterHelp Is there ANY need for this to be in 1080p ?

[chrisybwell]

@Nanowarex Is there any need for any video to be in 1080p? Why do you think people upload the highest resolution videos they can?
