For many of the experience bloggers who do know what do follow blogs are I am sorry but this may bore you I recommend to scroll down the page for our list of do follow blogs but for those newbie bloggers I am going to tell you what exactly a do follow blog is. In the wordpress blog platform the comments are automatically set to the no follow tag what this means is that for any comments that are made the website url that you are allowed to put in when you make a comment will not pass any pr juice for googles pagerank to your website. There are some great tools to check whether a blog is no follow here is one which is a firfox addon called search status another way would be to view the source code and find the url and if it has this after the url “rel=”no follow” then it is not passing any google juice your way.
If you would like to remove the no follow tag on your wordpress blog there are several plugins that allow you to this and after you install it will automatically remove the do follow on your comments section. Here is the newest do follow plugin that will allow you to add no follows case by case
Many bloggers will make comments on do follow blogs for the seo benefits to make their site more popular and gain better pagerank and has become a vital part of a blogs linking strategy but it is a good idea to make comments on blogs that appeal to you and your audience which will allow you to build relationships with other bloggers.Now there are also problems will do follow blogs if you are planning to comment on do follow blogs just for the seo benefits which I have wrote about.
The benefits of having your site a do follow blog would be you will gain more comments and return visitors and who knows might gain a new rss subscription or a sale from one of your advertisers although most of this traffic will be less of a return than search engine traffic. It also can help your alexa ranking since you will be gaining more traffic although I hate Alexa and believe it is such a false portrayal of website rankings but some people swear by it.
The drawback of having a do follow blog will be the amount of spam you will receive which you will need to keep up with and I do recommend using the askimet plugin to battle spam, when I say battle I mean battle since spam is such a freaking problem still nowadays. I would also recommend having a commenting policy which I am working on now on my blog to let your commenter’s to make quality comments that pertain to the blog post and not just comments like great post! Or wow really cool.
I am going to make it easy for you to find do follow blogs by listing some of the ones I like to comment on and will continue to grow this list. I hope you can help me out if you know of a great do follow blog we can add. I will start with mine. You may even want to check out my article on Keyword Luv blogs

I use the “nofollow free” plugin. And you’re right it does bring a lot more comments. happy halloween!
Aimeys last blog post..Halloween!
Hey Aimey Happy Halloween to you as well, I added your blog. Keep up the good work I love the pink layout.
Thanks for the link. I’ve been a do follow blogger for about two and a half years. Unfortunately you can get a LOT of comment spam so for those who like to comment on do follow blogs just remember to leave real comments that add value to the post. Please. LOL

Warung Digitals last blog post..Backlinks.com Paid Me $12 In The First Day
Thank you for sharing your the info about the backlinks that we can use to increase the traffic in my site. Creating comments help me a lot because i can insert the backlink of my site.Additional info it is important to remember to always use the keywords you want to categorize in your anchor text of the relationship. Some bloggers do not allow keyword in the anchor, but only a first name. Something that I will never understand because if you are offering to follow-why put restrictions on the anchor? For the love of God that wants to qualify for his first name? However, I digressed. Links with nofollow do not count as backlinks to Google and other search engines, so you dont get the search engine ranking benefit for a link with nofollow.At this moment a whole movement has evolved, who are removing the NoFollow settings. These bloggers are able to reward commenter’s with so called love links. Love links are an excellent way to reward visitors that are contributing to a useful discussion.
Since my blog is hosted by blogspot, I haven’t heard of any do-follow plugins for it. I manually remove no-follow from my blog following Amanda’s tutorial. Now my blog is also a do-follow blog.

Nihars last blog post..October 2008 Blog Traffic & Income statistics
Thanks for providing this list of follow blogs.
The gain for the do follow blogs is that they have much more comments. I return much more to read Blogs with do follow. Thanks for the list.
good job, love the posts, after forever submitting good replies on no-follows, i really appreciate the educational information on the do-follow movement, all that time invested, thank you for the good read.. -Charles-
A great blog, truly. Im going through your list of blogs and mine is also do follow
Thanks for sharing the link list!
I’ve read an increasingly large amount of information on the DOFOLLOW movement. I use the term movement as many articles use that as their title. What do you think about the label “movement”? Has it really got to that point?
I’ve just lately began adding the DOFOLLOW plugin to my blogs. I must say it does greatly increase visitor comments, and surprisingly, less spam!
Tony Lee´s last blog post..How to Keep Your Golfing Scores Low
Thanks for the great list, gotta love do-follow blogs!
Dofollow is certainly the way to go. Thanks for sharing the plugin too.
Strange that all the comment links on this page are no-follow. Why not practice what you preach?
zodiac´s last blog post..Pisces Compatibility
I still don’t completely understand “do follow” and “no folow” and I think I’ve also seen “go follow” but I wouldn’t swear by it.
Thanks for the heads up.
I do think “dofollow” additions are a great idea – there’s lots of dofollow blog searches around (quite easy to do, just a customised google search) through which you can find keyword-related blogs to post on. Personally I believe as long as the comment is interesting and valid it’s simply polite to allow dofollow…as long as you have a good spam filter and/or comment moderation in action you’re not going to find too many issues.
sally´s last blog post..Nurturing your child’s friendships
Dofollow blogs are great for helping your linkbuilding campaigns along, and I agree with a few of the posters above – as long as the comments are kept relevant and engaging there’s no reason for a blog administrator to be worried. It’s actually a fantastic way of improving traffic to your blog…I’m trying to convince my manager to use it on our blog, I absolutely sure it’ll up the stats!
Hi,
I have seen so many dofollow blogs but First time I have seen his benefits of dofollow blogs. Thanks
I am searching for dofollow blogs but hardly find 2 or three blogs out of fifty blogs. Please would some tell me how to find do follow blogs.
Wow! Thanks for the list of dofollow blogs. I didn’t know about the firefox add-on and will download it. I like what you wrote about the benefits and drawbacks, too. I will make sure I have Akismet activated.
David @ Plus Size Adult Costumes´s last blog ..Sexy Plus Size Costumes
The list was great.
however, its damn tough to find dofollow blogs with good PR rank.
I think page rank of blog also does matter where you are posting comments.
I think both commentators and blog owners will be benefited by do-follow features. But you should not forget that search engines like Google can know where the link is coming from.
What I know the list number 3 you mention above is no longer doFollow.
The other disadvantages of doFollow plugin is, the developer of the plugin should keep up with the wordpress update.
Ruri@Free article directory´s last blog ..Charter Sailing- Enjoy Sailing Through Sailing Boat Charter
Thanks for the info on Do Follow, you’re right, the SPAM is the downside. I’m use Askimet and it’s really helped to manage it.
I appreciate you keeping an active list. Feel free to add mine.
jessica @ Renaissance Faire Costumes´s last blog ..Women’s Renaissance Faire Costumes
The amount of spam one of my blogs receives is astounding. Soon as the keyword “money” pops up, the spammers swarm. I use wp-spamfree on my blogs and am happy with it’s performance.
I am experimenting with the CommentLuv plug-in on one of my blogs first, I may go dofollow on it later on.
