BumpZee, Follow, Nofollow And What You Can Do About It.

Shortly after Mark over at 45n5 raised concern about SEO effects that BumpZee is already having in search engines. Scott the founder of BumpZee, good guy that he is, immediately implemented an outstanding option in your account where you can tell BumpZee to attribute “nofollow” rule to all the links pointing to your blog.

As with any other community driven websites, BumpZee is beginning to rank high in the search engines, its just the nature of community driven websites. Inflow of content on community driven sites (like Digg for example) is much higher than on other websites and therefore these community sites are loved by search engine spiders. So it is very likely that titles for your own posts maybe indexed at BumpZee way before the spider decides to come back to your website. Consequently BumpZee may very well rank highier for the keywords in your title.

While I am enjoin the fact that BumpZee is in the top of my “referrers” and do not mind at all if some of what I have written will be reflected on BumpZee first. If you do, now you have an option to tell BumpZee that all links to your blog should have “nofollow” rules. All you have to do is to login to your account and edit your blog settings.

Also you can consider another option. When editing your blog’s settings at BumpZee you can opt-out from displaying a “snippet” of your post, then only the title will be displayed.

    I have just recently joined the BumpZee do-follow community and I think it's a wonderful idea. I totally agree with Vlad, since sites like Digg if nofollow is used the sites will just see a short term traffic peak and slowly dies away.

    But then I guess any traffic is better than no traffic, right?

    Cin97,

    Thanks for stopping by. I think one of the things that turned me off from Digg, besides being banned, was the ignorance of some of the members. At BumpZee if no one likes your posts you simply do no receive “bumps”.
