Backlinks are the most important aspect of building a successful website. To those that don’t know, your search rankings are partly based on how many website link back to yours. So, here’s your guide to do follow blogs.

There are many ways to build backlinks, which I won’t cover here. But there are good way and bad ways. A good way to build backlinks is by commenting on blogs.

However, many blogs (especially Wordpress by default) have a ‘no-follow’ tag attribute on by default. This means that any links in your comments will not be counted in your search rankings. So, you shouldn’t waste your time commenting on these types of blogs (that is unless they genuinely interest you).

How do you find so called ‘do-follow’ blogs?

The fastest and easiest way is to use a new tool called Do Follow Diver. This tool is great, it is a database of blogs that have removed the ‘no-follow’ attribute from their blogs. That means that when you comment and leave your web address, it will be counted as a valuable link to search engines.

All you need to do is search for things that interest you or things related to your blog, read the blog entries and make relevant comments. Keep in mind, you should not spam comments and just post your links. You should participate on the blogs and add something to the conversation. If you needlessly spam, chances are your comments will be removed and you wasted your time posting to begin with.

How valuable are these do-follow backlinks? 1 hour spent building links for your blog through commenting will help your search rankings greatly and eventually increase your Google Pagerank.

My only complaint about “>Do Follow Diver< is that it only allows you to search these blogs, it doesn’t provide a straight list of all the blogs in it’s directory.

There are other directories of ‘do-follow’ sites that aren’t as useful but here they are listed below:
