      Hello guys, in doing an analysis of our website using SEMRush, we discovered that there are Form Type links from some of the business websites connected to our website with follow attributes. SEMRush has identified them as toxic backlinks. What is the proper HTML code structure for setting Form Type links with nofollow attributes?

        Are you saying that the links are on another website linking to yours? If that's the case you don't mark those links as "nofollow" (you can't, they're on someone else's website), instead you would add those URLs to your disavow file.

        Otherwise, if the link is on your site and you don't have an editor to mark the link up for you, just add rel="nofollow" to the link in html.
