What is a Dofollow and a Nofollow Blog

No nofollowImage via Wikipedia

Many blog writers have discussed and debate over the question "What is better; a DoFollow Blog? Or a NoFollow Blog?, certainly many of them answered DoFollow, and only a few answered Nofollow, but what is the real reason of this debate? This is my own opinions and views:

A Dofollow Blog leaves a space and grants access to their visitors to have a backlink on their blogs, the effect is that whenever somebody leaves a link on the blog, both the author of the blog and the one who interlink backlinks will be benefited, because it will affect and adds up both of their blogs or websites' reputation and search engine ranking, so you see the good effect there?

But a one big disadvantage of this technique is that; what if you have a high reputaion and a high pagerank blog or website? And the one who made a backlink at your blog has a website or a blog with a bad reputation(sites that are related to hacks, pornography, etc)? Such as their blogs may be out of your niche, have bad credit, full of spams, has malicious contents, etc. Would you still want to unite your blog's well earned reputation and credit to a bad reputation blog? Well think again.

Many spammers liked blogs who has a property that grant them access to put their own links, and they will try to put no quality comments , familiar with "hey thanks!", "nice post!", "great!", "blahblahblah", some bloggers comment just to have a backlink on your blog.
A NoFollow blog is a blog or a website that restricts their visitors or readers to have a backlink on their website or blog, at first it may sound greedy or selfish but what they are really doing is their protecting their blogs from spammers who tries to spam their way just to have a backlink.

Many newbie bloggers get the wrong reaction to NoFollow, because they think a DoFollow is much useful for their blog, and maybe their right! But have they observed high reputation and pagerank blogs? Most of it has a NoFollow property, because they want to control the contents and quality that links to their blogs.
In conclusion, both Dofollow and NoFollow property has their own advantages and disadvantages, but in my own opinion, when you have just newly started your blog, you can try to implement the DoFollow system because it will help your blog get up to the seo(search engine optimazition) ladder, and later when you have build up high credibility you can then change this property to NoFollow, to control the quality that links to your blog.

If this sounded greedy to you don't worry, because you can tell your blog readers that you will link to them if they have a good credibility blogs and quality comments on your blog, this is also a way of building relationship with your loyal readers.
