Dear User i think No follow and Do follow Back links are very Important and major factor to rank a website in google first page...In case you have created all of Do follow back links then you also need to create some no follow back links for your website to rank your website...Thanks for asking this informative Question.

Hi there, nofollow links shouldn't harm your site's performance in and of themselves - they should just be ignored by Google when trying to rank your site. If you're finding that 99% of the links to your site are nofollow then perhaps you would want to have a look at how you are marketing the site - do you think the links are driving value in terms of getting real customers coming to the site to buy?
If so then great, if it looks more like they are artificial and not driving value then even aside from whether they'll harm your rankings they could be harming your business in that time and money is being spent on something that isn't helping it grow.
Long answer short - wouldn't worry about nofollow links too much, but wouldn't specifically go out to get them unless there is a non-SEO strategy behind it.
Hope that helps!
