Is it important to put nofollow on links if you have nofollow in the meta tags of the page the link leads to? Obviously, you can't do this when you don't own the page you are linking to but I prefer this method if it will still prevent PR leak.
NOFOLLOW - on link or in meta tags?

the metatag up top will take care of it on the actual page
i think you answered your own question in terms of an external link going inbound

I didnt answer my own question in my mind, lol. I'm glad I wa able to phrase the question in a way that makes sense to people who 'know' but I still dont.
I want stop passing PR from the homepages to a few of the internal pages it links to. Can I do this by putting meta nofollow on the interior pages and doing nothing else? That is my first choice. If I have to go put nofollow on the link on the homepage I will. But only if you tell me I have to, lol.Comment

No, putting NOFOLLOW on the internal pages stops the spider from following links ON THAT PAGE, it will NOT stop the page its on from being followed from another link.I didnt answer my own question in my mind, lol.

NOINDEX, in the meta on that internal page will stop the spider from indexing it when it does arrive, NOINDEX/NOFOLLOW will stop the spider from indexing it when it arrives and stop the spider from following links on it.Last edited by Jdoughs; 01-23-2009, 12:52 PM.LinkSpun - Premier Adult Link Trading Community - ICQ - 464/\281/\250

I want it to be followed, I don't want it to pass pr. Its login pages and shit like that. If they get indexed thats fine, but dont wanna waste any link juice on it.No, putting NOFOLLOW on the internal pages stops the spider from following links ON THAT PAGE, it will NOT stop the page its on from being followed from another link.

WHAT? No follow means exactly that, no follow.. You can't have it followed if you're using no follow on the link or in meta.Comment
