Nofollow internal links

[FRUTIKO]

Hey Moz friends,

Need some advise of yours.

Trying to add new products and content to my website regularly(nowadays a bit more) to be able to have more internal links and attact the visiters.

Figured out most websites dont use nofollow internal links. Are we doing something wrong? this internal nofollow links are affecting the anchor text i assume. Any advantage to make that links follow?

Thanks in advance

Hello

If I understood it properly, you're wondering if you should use follow vs nofollow.

Actually it depends of your page and strategy.

Nofollow will give indication to Google on the page -it looks like they crawl also the nofollow- but will not transfer link juice.

I usually do it in page where I want to reduce the number of outgoing links. So less important information are linked to no-follow.

Do you have any specific example ?

Hi,

It is my understanding that having followed internal links will pass on domain authority to specific areas of the website and increase the individual pages authority. If you have them no followed, no/little authority will be passed on to those pages. Obviously, the higher the PA the better the chance of you ranking for specific keywords on those pages.

Thanks for info so far

Obviously nofollow ones are no important keywords linke details, login. creat an account button

And as an example my home page www.frutiko.cz    Follow 60 and nofollow 14 internal link. Percentage of being high is a problem? Even that keywords are no important shell i follow that links ?

Thanks

Rather to my view, no internal link should be nofollow. At best - if the page is of low authority you may noindex the page. Nofollow are good for external page or domain. However, In Internal links - There is no additional value to mark nofollow - this is what been categorically told by Matt Cutt - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVOOB_Q0MZY

Trust - will assist with what the webmaster guidelines says - no internal link should be nofollow

As i understood there is no actual benefit to use nofollow internal links. But want to be clear is it gonna be harmfull to use nofollow internal links in our case i want to explain how we built it.

We have categories which are linking to our products.. And each product has three links from that  url(one  from title text, one from photo and last one with button called detail). Detail button is nofollow. Is there any harm to keep it that way or we have to make that button follow?

Thanks once more

To the best of my understanding about seo, i consider applying the best practice. If you have a choice of applying best practice by avoiding nofollow from internal links then to my view you should apply that
