How do you determine if a link is dofollow or nofollow?

To determine if a link is a dofollow or nofollow link, you can inspect the HTML code of the webpage containing the link. Here's how you can do it:

1. **Right-click on the Link**: Visit the webpage containing the link in your web browser, then right-click on the link you want to inspect.

2. **Select "Inspect" or "Inspect Element"**: From the context menu that appears, select "Inspect" or "Inspect Element." This will open the browser's Developer Tools panel, allowing you to view the HTML code of the webpage.

3. **Locate the Link in the HTML Code**: In the Developer Tools panel, the HTML code of the webpage will be displayed. Look for the code corresponding to the link you clicked on. It will typically be enclosed within an <a> (anchor) tag.

4. **Check for rel="nofollow" Attribute**: If the link is a nofollow link, you will see a rel="nofollow" attribute within the <a> tag. This attribute instructs search engines not to follow the link or pass any authority from the linking page to the linked page.

   Example of a nofollow link:
   ```html
   <a href="https://example.com" rel="nofollow">Link Text</a>
   ```

5. **Absence of rel="nofollow" Attribute**: If the link is a dofollow link, there will be no rel="nofollow" attribute within the <a> tag. Dofollow links allow search engines to follow the link and pass authority from the linking page to the linked page.

   Example of a dofollow link:
   ```html
   Link Text
   ```

By inspecting the HTML code of the webpage containing the link, you can easily determine whether a link is a dofollow or nofollow link. This information can be valuable for understanding the impact of the link on search engine rankings and SEO efforts.
