No follow links also been reported in SEOmoz crawl diagnostics

[malpani]

Hi,

Why does SEOmoz reports links which has been marked as 'nofollow'.

I am getting 'Overly-Dynamic URL' reports on links which I have designated as nofollow which means Google will discount them.

So why does SEOmoz still report them.

Thanks.

SEOmoz's bot does not take instruction from No-follow, it crawls your whole site, unless you use robots.txt

Also I think its bad practice to No-follow internally,  better to use no index on the page, if you don't want it in the serps.

a no-follow tag just means that the link won't pass any link juice, if you don't want Google/SEOmoz to crawl then you'll have to no-index the pages or disallow the URL's in Webmaster Tools

Thanks for the clarity. Will approach accordingly.
