Nofollow links if you have more than one link on a page to the same destination.

Hi,
I am wondering if someone can confirm that its best practice to have nofollow on secondary links on a page. For instance the contact page may have a link in the navigation and in the the blurb down the page have another link to the contact page saying contact us here etc.. So in this instance i would put a nofollow on the secondary link in the blurb would this be the best way to impliment this.
Many thanks
Chris

Quite the reverse, I would say not to do so. There is certainly no benifit to you, and in the case the algo decided your no-follow link was the more relivent one you would lose all the potential link power for that page to the other page.
No-Follow is supposed to be used only for links to sites you do not wish to be assossiated with, and paid links. Using it for internal navigation isn't something that has been common since page rank sculpting stoped working.

Thank you for your quick response. I will leave my site as it is, im still learning all this SEO stuff seems like there is no successful formula just a combintaion of good link building and good content.
