Do you remember Shoemoney’s Pamcake’s eyerolls at the idea that “Nofollow” blogs have good comments? Well, if you need any proof, visit the two blogs currently neck and neck in the “2007: Best Weblogs” contest. At both Climate Audit and Bad Astronomy, you’ll find plenty of heated debate.
The things you won’t find are:
- Automated Spam Comments
- Over SEO’d comment “names” and
- Pink link condoms on the author url links.
In fact, while you will see link condoms in the comment content at Climate Audit, it appears that “Bad Astronomy” is full boar nofollow, giving real “follows” to links in author names, in comment content and trackbacks.
