Hey, your site was hacked. Just look on footer of your every page and you will see something like: eval(unescape(“%64%6

probably they changed your wordpress template. I thing you will find it on wp-content/themes/your theme/foother.php

I’ve just downloaded a dofollow plugin, but had second thoughts installing it. I searched for nofollow or dofollow, instead, i found this site. Like you, i’ve been thinking, too, that having this dofollow is just for the benefit of others. Most of my commenters have this nofollow on their blogs, anyway, why should I have this dofollow on mine. Thanks for this post!

Interesting read. Some valid points, but I’m not convinced.

As another comment above said, thinking “Google may not like it” puts the search engine before the community. I like search engine traffic, but I like my regular visitors more.

I don’t see any other problems with dofollow. The amount of extra moderation is very small. Akismet takes care of 99% of the spam comments left on my blog, and most of those would be posted regardless of whether I used nofollow or not. A site with more traffic might get more dofollow spam, but then again, they’d get more spam anyway.

I believe the use of nofollow is unnatural, and I like to vote for my readers site.
