UPDATE: After the Google panda effect only useless links
like comment links should be tagged as nofollow. Links pointing to your
post pages should be kept dofollow like labels and archives
You
waste an important use of your homepage PR when you don’t link your
internal pages or when you link internal pages as nofollow. A PR flows
like a river between all pages that you link to. The better the PR flow
within your blog the better will your blog get indexed. Robots enjoy
crawling content which is well organized in terms of linking. I have
already discussed in detail on how to flow the PR juice to internal
pages and just today I also published a post discussing the importance
of nofollow tags. I shared in detail some steps that can help you better
maintain your PR and make good use of it. It is really important that
you understand the importance of in-page and off-page link building. The
previous post discussed: when should you link sites with rel="nofollow" tag but great emphasis was made on the fact that all internal links should be kept do follow.
Matt Cutts from Google “Webmaster help” has given a detailed video
explanation on the use of rel="nofollow" tag and he has paid great
stress on the fact that all links that point from one page on your blog
to another whether they are hyperlinks or anchor tags must be kept dofollow.
