Change Users Website URL to NOFOLLOW - Support

[deadlychaos25]

As you will be knowing that My-BB is using DoFollow tag for users website filed under www.

If you care for Pagerank and don't want to waste it on others site then this change will help you.

Actually i am a Search Engine Optimist and i was worried for this DoFollow tag so i tried to make it NoFollow and i succeeded.

Its Pretty Simple to change it to No-Follow

Here is how you can do it

1) Login to AdminCp.
2) Then go to Template>Modify / Delete.
3) Select your template and click on Expand.
4) You will find 'Post Bit Templates' click on Expand from the right side.
5) In 'Post Bit Templates' after expanding you will find 'postbit_www'.
6) Then Find this Code in 'postbit_www'.

Code:

<a href="{$post['website']}" target="_blank">

And replace with this

Code:

<a href="{$post['website']}"rel="nofollow" target="_blank">

Save the template.

Done, all the url's are NoFollow now including your's

Although this is free but you can make a small donation which will encourage me to find more SEO related stuff

I don't understand, what does this do exactly?

[pepotiger]

it's for prevent the pass of page rank, it's some search engines techniques

In simplest terms, it stops search engines from opening that link.

Does that help better the pagerank of your website?

This will stop search engine spider (Only Google) to follow the url of your users website. By doing this your page will have less outbound links.
If you don't use this NoFollow tag then your pagerank will be divided with your users website.
So in short you can save your pagerank health without wasting it on your users website.

Yes it definitely helps for better Pagerank.
Not for gaining but for keeping the current pagerank healthy.

Hope This Helps
