    What does this mean and can you explain how to change it? “all blogs have a “no-follow” default, unless they’ve decided to become beautiful like me and overrule it. “

      Hi DawnS,

      When I click on your name here on your post, I’m directed to your site as you specified in the URL when you posted your comment. With the “no-follow” blogs which is what all blogs have in default, google just ignores this and does not count it as a link towards your blog / site. But people will still be directed to your site. Now, with a “do-follow” blog, this will count as a link to your site and will help increase your search engine ranking. The higher your ranking, the more you’re favored by search engines like google.

      To change the default, you can use Lucia’s linky love plugin and it will override it automatically for you. But this plugin is for wordpress platforms only. I’m not sure how blogger platforms do it but I’m pretty sure there are tools that blogger people use to do this. Hope this helps.

    I just found your blog through the best of the Buzz over at Jessica Knows! Love this post .. I am going to go look to see if you have email subscriptions now so I can follow.

    I didn’t know such a plugin or feature increased page rankings … guess we learn something new everyday – heading to install this plugin to show my loyal readers some link back love!

    Stumbling away! *smiles* the whole no-follow thing is a bit of a strange beast. The more I research about it, the less I understand! Good luck1

    I couldn’t get the plugin zip file to upload correctly to my WP dashboard – any advice? it state it was a broken file or something. Thanks in advance if you can help me!

      You need to unzip the file first before uploading. Right click on the zip file that you just downloaded, and click extract all. You will then see a Lucia_s_LinkyLove.php file. Upload this file to your plugins folder, go to your admin panel in wordpress, and activate it. Once activated, you can then proceed to customize your options. Good-luck!

    I’m confused! I read that “no-follow” is better for SEO. Of course, I know nothing about SEO. I’m dancing fast, but can’t keep up with it all!

    This is a really nice blog, and I love the way that you write. Even though I’m not a Mom (and if I was I would surely be in the Guiness Book of Records!), it makes a good read, and you obviously have a great following.
