Do follow links vs no follow links is a topic I have read about over and over again and still I come to the same conclusion.. The argument is that no follow links are a waste of time and you should focus all your efforts on do follow links instead.
Quite frankly I think this is a crock of shit because both have very different benefits to your website promotion needs!
Do follow links can help in your websites serps, and give you juice/PR from the blog/site linking to you. And no follow links can help increase your traffic, if the blog/site is popular.
Do a search on google for blogs related to your niche and post useful, on topic comments regardless of, "is it do follow or a no follow back link" forget it just post a comment because you want to. Make a point of doing it daily on lets say,, 15 different blogs and watch your traffic, serps/PR increase.
At the end of the day we are all looking to increase our popularity, traffic and serps/PR. So to me a mix of do follow links and no follow links will serve your promotional needs. Personally I think it's all good!

About me
This blog is all about my life… my life of mountain biking and ideas I’ve acquired through the years. As an average everyday mountain biker, the learning doesn’t stop. I try to feed my mind in my own little way by writing and promoting this blog. I would like to share what I have learned through this blog with you. Let this blog be an additional resource for your mountain bike needs, and maybe you'll find some much needed ideas you may not have given much thought to before.
My name is Paul Walton, an engineer slave and spare time mountain biker/blogger. Blogging about mountain bikes has become and undying passion, spending most weekends and afternoons on the internet blogging. As well as riding bikes, writing about it also is what I love to do.

That's so true really. It doesn't really matter to me what it is, they all increase your traffic at one point or another.

Well said Jen. How about that link exchange with skipratt?
I do think the same way really! DO follow and no follow links have created a good discussion here on the blogosphere. But for me, the bottomline will always be NOT to care about the do follow and no follow links and just spread the link love (well, as long as you don't link or get linked to the bad sites).
Nice post you got!

Linking to bad sites is a problem, but being linked to by bad sites is out of one's hands and will not cause you a problem. If it did the big players would no longer be, big players!
I htink do follow is better.. visit my do follow site go4advertise.com
Nice post, this is really very true every one can search the do fallow links because google crawl only follow links.
My point to this post is it all comes down to visibility really and "branding". Not everything is about search engines!
Well i just want to say that you need to create your backlinks on dofollow directories. Nofollow directories is the wastage of time.
