    its all about passing link juice, but keep in mind that all the matter is quality content, if you are getting no follow link from quality site than it will be worth, so forget about no follow and do follow and focus and building link that pass the value.

    No follow links and do follow links are the instructions given to the crawlers that which link they should crawl and which link they should not crawl. Do follow links will get you the backlinks and no follow will help in getting more traffic.

    In Dofollow, Dofollow links are hyperlinks that tell the search engines to pass along their page rank to influence on outbound links. This factor affects a lot for SEO purpose. If you get more do follow links, then search engines will decipher your links as back links and you have more chances to receive positive values for your site's ranking.

    In Nofollow, Nofollow links are exactly the opposite. These hyperlinks don't have the ability to pass on a page rank status to other websites. Nofollow links don't consider as crawling links from search engines and so the link associated with Nofollow websites won't crawl by search engines.

    Nofollow is not influence the link target’s ranking in the search engine’s index. Dofollow links allow all search engines to follow them and reach our website.

    NoFollow and DoFollow tags used a Search Engine to distinguish each link. NoFollow links that will not be followed by the Search Engines. While Link is Dofollow is the opposite, ie would further explore by Search Engines.

    Dofollow links will be crawled by search engines and will be considered as a backlink for the website.
    Nofollow links will not be crawled by search engines but can help to increase the traffic to the website.
    A website should have a combination of both dofollow and nofollow links for better ranking and traffic.

    A dofollow link will pass the SEO strength, or "PageRank" of the page to the site that it links to. A nofollow link, in theory, will not do this. That's the main difference between the two.

    A no-follow link is a link that does not count as a point in the page's favor, does not boost PageRank, and doesn't help a page's placement in the SERPs. No, follow links get no love. Theirs is a sad and lonely life. The nofollow tag is basically a notice sign for search engines saying “don't count this.”
