Is it in your book?

I would definitely like an answer to this great debate. Of course, I have been commenting on blogs and such because I've seen various evidence showing it does help your google ranking whether it's nofollow or not. And it just gets people to your site which is the main reason to do so anyway.

I've set up a Facebook group about Google Social Marketing and maybe you and Jack could contribute to the discussion there.

Of course, anyone else who wants to weigh in on this can.

Personally all I want is TARGETED TRAFFIC so the no-follow thing has never entered my equation. I need to comment to get others to come to my site – it's that simple – BUT ONLY IF IT'S RELEVANT! and that's the real point isn't it?.

Keep up the great work – love the updates which let me choose which articles I want to read.

I recently wrote a piece on getting links back from the angle of using Google in the form of leaving valuable comments potentially making it on Top Commentators lists for sitewide exposure…I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that as long as -again- the comments have some type of value.

At the same time, trying to figure out Google in the never ending game of "Chase Your Tale" will cost you. However, what Google is doing right now is probably the what will be called Web 4.0 and the most revolutionary developments in the Internet since Google destroyed all the competition 5 years ago. First of all Google is breaking most SEO software to hide what is coming and of course I believe that is the new Google social platform. I contacted my SEO top dogs and they told me, that yes, Google is breaking most tracking software and has SEO developers pulling their hair out. Keep your eyes open, this is going to blow you away.
