How many nofollow links should we build to have a natural link profile

[sssrpm]

Hi guys,

As with many link builders we have been building lots of dofollow links for our site, so many that mainly our incoming links are dofollow. Some pages have 99.5% dofollow external links which I know is not very natural.

In your experience in terms of percentage how much should you have in terms of nofollow external links in your link profile.

I noticed SEOMoz has about 12-13% nofollow external links, shall I go with this figure?

Thanks guys.

I like around 20%, but probably best look at the niche average.  Or look at the most natural link profile in that niche.

i know not everyone will agree with this, but we really don't monitor how many links are follow/nofollow.

The key is to get links pointed to your site that are topical. Just by that tactic alone, you will get a typical blend of both kinds of links.
