    Hello for years I have always put the External links of my site https://doingbuzz.com in Nofollow, I would like to know today if I should deactivate this option which is on the excellent rank math plugin
    “Automatically add the rel =” nofollow “attribute for external links that appear in your articles, pages, and other types of posts. The attribute is applied dynamically when content is displayed and stored content is not changed.”

    In the hope of further boosting my presence on the search engines, what should I choose between dofollow and nofollow please

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    The nofollow attribute is used to instruct search engines bots that a hyperlink should not influence the link target’s ranking in the search engine’s index. That means if the website owner is linking back to you with nofollow attributes, it does not pass on link juice. Only Humans will be able to follow the links.

    Dofollow links allow google (all search engines) to follow them and reach our website. Giving us link juice and a backlink. If a webmaster is linking back to you with this link both Search Engine and Humans will be able to follow you.

    In terms of which one to us for your SEO, I believe the following links explain this more clearly than we can in our reply:
    Link 1
    Link 2

    Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.

    Yes yes I understand the concepts but I would like to know if I will have to activate the nofollow or dofollow option by default, which will recommend me on https://doingbuzz.com

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    Since your site is linking out to a number of external URLs, to be on the safe side, you can enable the nofollow option and then add domains you are sure you wish to exclude from nofollow in the nofollow exclude field.

    Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.
