outbound links – all nofollow even though I have excluded domains.

    hi There. Love Rank math and excited for the pro to role out!

    I’ve been trying to tweak my scores to get them higher and I noticed on one of my pages that I have 3 outbound linkes in my content and all of them are nofollow. I have the tab checked to make all outbound links nofollow, and I also have the specific domains I am trying to exclude from nofollow, yet still shows as nofollow.

    I have used sitehealth plug-in to deactivate theme and plug-ins to see if there was a conflict. The issue persisted.

    Thanks for your help.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    I checked your site but your excluded external URLs don’t seem to have a nofollow link. You can check the sample screenshot I have added in the sensitive section.

    If there are any specific affected URLs or pages, please share with us so we can check.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hey Micheal.
    I figured it out myself. When I create a link (using elementor) I need to go to the “edit link” button. There I must manually click the “open in new window” checkbox. If I do this then it reflects that it is a DoFollow, or NoFollow. Not sure why that is even though I had the master inside Rankmath set. Perhaps there was a plug-in conflict somewhere? Not sure. But at least I have a work-around, for now, to work myself towards a higher score.
