Comment posted on DoFollow Express: Is Traffic Generation Cafe Getting Off? by Andreas@Online Advertising

Linking out to spammy and penalized sites is bad for both new and established blogs.
It all comes down to on whether or not you are able to maintain your blog hygiene with your newly achieved success and are able to control the target urls you are linking out to.
It also depends on whether you think that your traffic is self-sustainable on a certain lower level as some contributors may leave if you say good-bye to dofollow links.
On the other hand, if your success is largely based on your facebook comment circles that are not based on do-follow, the decision may be easier.

Hi Ana, I usually comment in some high traffic blogs mainly for my link building campaign. But whenever I find an article which gives more values to the readers I don’t worry about the Nofollow, dofollow thing. I just post a comment to appreciate the author. The later is the reason that I am commenting here.
