		<description>Michiel,

Thanks for your comment and the link to your post. Obviously, nofollow has changed a lot in the past few years! You may just have given me inspiration enough to write a followup/update post!

Best,
Nicki</description>

		<description>Hi Nicki,

For a while now I wanted to pour my heart out on Nofollow in a post of my own. I found your post while I was doing research for it.
The thing I wanted to comment on is:
I&#039;m not sure that adding Nofollow to internal pages is useful.
When you add the Nofollow attribute to a link, that link juice does (!) leak out of your website. It just doesn’t get passed on to the receiving webpage. It kind of vaporises.
My post about it here:

Thanks, &amp; best,
Michiel</description>

		<description>Yes, you can change them to nofollow links in the HTML by adding rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; before the href link location, as in &lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Google Maps&lt;/a&gt;.

I don&#039;t think there&#039;s any one good proportion as far as incoming/outgoing links. The more incoming links, the better; and you wouldn&#039;t want to have an overwhelming number of outgoing links on the page - ask yourself what are the best/most helpful for your readers.</description>

		<description>Very good explanation, thank you.

Can I edit html at my page and change some dofollow to nofollow? 
If yes, what I have to do?

Also, is there some proportion between incoming links and outging links? What proportion is the best?</description>

		<description>Joost, 

You&#039;re absolutely right.  For example, I did &lt;strong&gt;not&lt;/strong&gt;  nofollow the folks over at eVisibility for the picture they designed.

However, I do think there&#039;s a delicate balance between linking to credit authors and linking to Google Maps..Google really doesn&#039;t need that link love!</description>
