BizJournals Business Directory Adds NoFollow To Profile Links

Don’t expect any more link love from BizJournals Business Directory. They’ve recently added the nofollow attribute to outbound website links.

That’s too bad because I used to think of them as one of the highest quality free business directories. They actually do a good job of verifying the company information being submitted and approving or denying appropriately. Not sure why they decided to ad nofollow?? Sad to lose another great resource. Every time we lose a quality business directory like this one it drives the cost of SEO up for local small businesses.

    That’s bad news. Another website not wanting to share some link juice. It was good while it lasted though.

    More and more sites are giving this nofollow attribute to their sites, but a Business Directory doing that? Strange.
