Digg adding nofollow to selected links
Recently, Digg made some changes to decrease the benefits of those submitting spammy stories. So, it means that not all links are being added with a nofollow. Digg only adds nofollow to the links that they think can’t be trusted or a spam.
For those who still don’t quite understand what nofollow does, here it goes, nofollow by the word itself means that search engines will not follow that link, meaning it won’t be indexed by search engines. Adding nofollow to a link means that you don’t want to share any of your PR to that site so they won’t be getting any rank juice. So as much as possible, don’t put too many dofollow links in your site or you will lose your page rank.

Thank you so much for important points for newbies as myself. I would be most grateful if you could clarify the obvious things for me please:
I have a website with subdirectory blog.
1. How does that link should appear (example please)?
2. Where should we add it (robots file or meta tags)?
Would appreciate your professional respond in this matter.
With much gratitude,
Michael.

Do you mean the permalinks? It will look like this >> http://yourdailyguide.org/wordpress-how-to-import-content/
You can place the robots.txt in the root directory of the site. (I’ll be making a post about the importance of robots.txt file soon).
Meta Tags should be added in the header.
