2007doing the do follow dance with the d-list
Filed Under (Blog of the Moment, Misc Happens) by Loretta on 12-04-2007
Have you heard of Do Follow? It’s a plug-in that removes the ??no follow? that is automatically inserted on Wordpress blogs. With a ??no follow? it means a link isn’t spidered by Google and other search engines. When somebody leaves a comment on a blog, it adds a backlinks, but if your blog has “no follow” that link doesn’t help the person who took the time to comment.
This list, is a list of blogs that have do follow comments. This is a list of blogs that was started by Colleen over at GeekySpeaky and is spreading quickly. This blogs have ??Do Follow? installed. Deb over at Two Dog Zoo Travel added me to the list, and pointed me in the right direction for the information for the project.
Here’s what you can do. Get the ??Do Follow? plug-in,, activate it, and let spread the link love.
It’s a great way to say thank you to people who take the time to comment.
The ??D List?? is a list of blogs that have installed ??Do Follow?. You??ll get real links when commenting on these blogs!
(Note: Any blog using any Do Follow type programs is welcome to join in the list! Spread the link love!)
***Begin to copy here***
1. Write a short paragraph at the beginning of your post and link back to the blog that put you on the list in the paragraph. This isn??t a suggestion. You need to break up the duplicate content. Someone took the time to add you so the least you can do is give them an extra link back.
2. Copy the list of originals below COMPLETELY and add it to your blog. If you would like a different keyword for your blog then change it when you do your post and it should pass to most blogs with that keyword.
3. Take the adds from the blog that added you and place them in the ??Originals? list.
4. Add at least 1 new blog that you KNOW us using the DO FOLLOW plugin to the list in the ??My Adds? section. (Add no more than 5!) Let the people you??ve added know, so that they can keep the list going!
5. Leave relevant comments on the blogs listed and get a link back to your site thanks to Do Follow!

I wonder if there is the same type of thing for Blogger blogs?
I haven’t found anything for blogger blogs, yet. I’m on the lookout though.
Another blogger pointed me in the right direction for doing this on blogger this morning.

I read about this at Cass’s. I just added the plugin to my blog, no I guess I need to write about it.
