  • Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with setting up the nofollow for external links as outlined in the guide. I understand that you’ve added the Amazon affiliate links to the list of nofollow domains in the Rank Math Links settings, but the links are not being changed to nofollow.

    It seems like you’ve followed the correct steps to add the Amazon affiliate links to the Nofollow Domains field in Rank Math. However, it’s possible that there might be a specific configuration issue or conflict with your theme that’s preventing the nofollow attribute from being applied to the links.

    To further investigate and resolve this issue, I recommend reaching out to our support team by clicking here and assigning this ticket to our team. Our support agents are available 24/7 and will be able to assist you in resolving this issue promptly.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this matter for you.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    We’ve checked your site, and indeed the external link is not set to nofollow.

    However, we’ve also tested the same link and used this for the nofollow domain field but it is working fine on our setup:

    nofollow

    For troubleshooting, please ensure that you’re using the latest version of Rank Math on your site:

    If the issue still persists, assuming you are using the latest version of all the plugins and the themes (please update if not yet), this could be caused by conflicting plugin/theme on your site.

    To determine that, please follow this troubleshooting guide:

    Here is a video you can follow as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcIWRhcUP2c

    Only the site admin would know and your users won’t be affected by this troubleshooting.

    Let us know how this goes.

    Thank you for checking and the trouble-shooting guide. Yes, after updating the theme plugin (Blocksy) to the latest version, it is working now. Thanks for the quick resolution.
