I did a post back on Halloween 2008 with a list of dofollow blogs and the benefits of dofollow blogs. To my amazement well not really, but I had a list of 22 do follow blogs and I checked last night to verify the list and out of 22 only 5 blogs are still dofollow. Most of the blogs switched to nofollow, some no longer exist and some exist but have not added any new content in months. So I just want to congratulate the blogs on the list that are surviving and sticking to dofollow. SeoSnack , Middle Zone Musings, Steve Wilson Marketing Feverish Thoughts
Sorry but I wish I updated this list long time ago well at least my keywordluv list is updated check that one out as well.
I just have a bad taste for blogs that switch to nofollow because I think it is sleazy for the most part. I even wrote a post about it a while back. If someone thinks I am wrong for feeling this please tell me why and don’t give me because of the spam bull s***. I had to censor this because of Eren Mckay’s audience.. haha jk Eren well maybe.
I am updating the list and it is going to be loaded with do follow bloggers that are committed to the dofollow movement and will be around for a while. Bloggers I know will remain dofollow and most I have built some type of relationship with.
The reason I love dofollow blogs. Coming soon the The Nofollow Vs Dofollow debate

Dofollow blog here – but you know all about it
.
Will I remain dofollow? Off course I will, I think that’s only just to reward the commenters, because, let’s be honest, traffic from comment is really scarce.
Do I let slip past spam comment… humm no, I think it’s better to have less comments than to have loads of worthless ones. If you don’t have time to sort the good from the bad, may be you shouldn’t be allowing comments at all – or simply quit blogging
Hey Tom Thanks for stopping by I hope you do remain dofollow it also is a great way for new blogs like yours get noticed and build an audience faster.
I left my website out purposely because I am not here to get a link. No-Follow vs Do-Follow will always be a great debate. Looking forward to reading the post on your thoughts on the debate….
Hey Keith Thanks so much for commenting. No need to leave out your website here besides I plan on you linking to your site in my next post.
Hey Danny,
Thanks for keeping us updated on who is still do follow. It’s good to know this kind of information. I agree with you the whole heartedly with the spam argument. There are plugins that will filter spam and moderating comments doesn’t take that much time unless you’ve got an extremely popular blog.
Uh… and thanks for moderating your language
All the best,
Eren
Thanks Eren for stopping by. Yes spam is fairly easy to moderate thankfully.
Hey Danny
speaking of do follow dofollowluv.com was just born and will own every kw associated with DO FOLLOW SOON 
I remember when Mixx was an awesome do follow site then they switched and said they were scared of Google. My site has been do follow from day one over 2 yrs now and I never had any problems with Google or spam. If I write about adsense or something popular for sp*m bots then I will get some sp*m comments but I just click delete. I don’t get the concern about sp*m etc. Anyway everyone has their own choice to make
PS Sometimes changing themes and plugins around with reverse do follow but it’s up to the owner to know what’s going on on their blog. Bloggers that switch after amassing a bunch of links are suckers LOL
Hey John you are the hardest working blogger around. No wonder why you have the best blog in the universe Yes I remember mixx when they did that and most other social bookmarking sites followed. Man I need an assistant to keep up with all your new sites, keep it up man.
I don’t think google is going to harm if the site is dofollow. But I have no idea what happened to social bookmarking sites like digg, mixx and dropjack – they are all no follow
Hey Danny. Great post. I am not a big time blogger but I keep telling myself I want my blog to be dofollow. Of course I have been slack about getting it set up like that. I think all the participation would be great! I will let you know when I make it happen.
What’s going on Danny? I think sometime back in November I switched the Do Follow plugin that I used from Do Follow WordPress Plugin to Lucias Linky Luv WordPress plugin which gives you more control over Do Follow scenarios.

Hey John Thanks for stopping by. Hey that’s cool. How many comments do you have it set to before becomes dofollow or do you just choose the ones you allow? It has been a while since I have seen how that plugin works.
Danny,
NoFollow Free allows you to set a minimum numbers of comments for a person before the links are dofollow. It also allows to display the numbers of comment this person has on the site.
NoFollow Case By Case, allows you to select which links are nofollowed.
There are loads of plugins out there to help you maintain control if you are unsure of the commenter.
Is it me or did you just install CommentLuv
?
.-= Tom@Accountant Web Design´s last blog ..90+ CSS galleries to kick start your practice website link building =-.
Hey Tom thanks for clarification. I think John is using Lucia Linky Love which I used a while back but wasn’t sure how much control you had with that one. If I remember right it automatically dofollows after 3 comments.
No my site has always been commentluv but recently I had notice the plugin somehow got deactivated.
I know i will remain dofollow, however, if for spam reasons, i think spammers are not just after dofollow blogs, when my blog was nofollow i usually receive a great number of spam though spammers increase with dofollow attribute but i believe spammers are must after links either follow or nofollow…
It is good to know who is deeply committed to dofollow and who isn’t. Everyone who reads any of my blogs already knows where I stand and I knew you were firmly in the dofollow community.
Why didn’t you tell me you had a KeywordLuv list? I’ll link to it and see if there are dofollow CommentLuv KeywordLuv blogs on it that I missed in my list. I hope all bloggers I missed will be sure to let me know. The best way is to leave a comment in my comprehensive post about KeywordLuv.
I’ll select it in CommentLuv and you can always find it easily by visiting the Twitter account @KeywordLuv.

Disregard what I said about your KeywordLuv list. I had already found and linked it. Too much stress today.

this is actually my first comment here. I was reading and browsing to some page in this site and learn some useful information and sources especially like having a dofollow blogs

Hi, I like to reinforce the idea that any blog with great content will get many backlinks. Commenting and have comments in a blog is the best gifts that blog owners wish for their best ranking. You are going to be visible faster is your content is update often, by the webmaster and by allowing more comments on it. Good luck for the best top positions.
There seem to be really still people with blogs they keep it a follow blog. This really amazes me because what I have seen in the past few days was blogs highly praising they have the keywordluv plugin and two days later after they had some nice traffic and comments, not even a whole lot of spam actually, they turn the whole comment part around and tag it nofollow. Of course their own replies with the link to their own sites or blogs are still follow.
Anyway, have no blog and no forum (although I’m planning on getting a forum started as soon as I will find some more time-whenever that might be) and blog commenting is one of the most used ways of creating backlinks and to market my shop. There is one rule I have set up for myself and that is “Do not Spam’ and I stick to it. If I can’t leave a relevant comment on the post I won’t leave anything. It wouldn’t be fair to the blog poster and wouldn’t help me either since the post most likely will get deleted anyway. This whole NOFOLLOW era, that makes it so much harder to create quality backlinks kind of stinks. I’m sorry to say so but it does. And no, do not always only blame the spammers, blame some bloggers they are just too lazy to go through the comments, moderate them and to delete the spam manually and are all scared for the Half God Google, blame them too. I highly appreciate and thank every blog owner who does not tag the links with the nofollow tag because this blog owner works together with me without maybe him realizing it. He gives me a backlink that helps my biz and I try to give him a quality comment that hopefully helps him writing even better posts. How come that some of the best blogs out there are still follow blogs and are not penalized by Google? Just look at Robert’s muzingzone.com or…this blog. Thanks Danny for being fair and keep up with the good posts.
Best regards
Paula Jo
You are too much in touch with the latest online information that is great job and this is the greatest job to fight against the spams. You can use any plug-in that can helpful for you in this chain.
Huh! That kind of bait and switch seems really sneaky! I wonder why these people are choosing to switch back to nofollow from dofollow? I read that pages with a lot of comments (activity) do well in Google, so it seems like you would want to attract comments. It’s kinda hard to do this if you’re nofollow. I mean, let’s face it. We all want some link love. Seems like these blogs would also want come comment love! I don’t get it.

We went DoFollow from the very beginning but never get any comments anyway! Any help would be appreciated
are there any harms to the sites with DoFollow? Will their ranking go down?
If not, how can they avoid spams?
To help the person who left the above comment, one plugin that helped me with spam is Askimet and you can get your api key from wordpress.com. Also helpful was to set in the settings area that each comment was to be moderated before approval.
I have used do follow for qutie some time and have noticed an improvement in comments as well as, possibly most important, the sense of “community” that is felt amongst readers.
Please feel free to add my website and blog to the DO FOLLOW list and stop by for a visit, thanks!

But, there may come a point in time, and it may be soon, that I will have to go nofollow due to the time it takes to monitor and delete crappy comments.
