Hi,

Almost all people say that nofollow backlinks will not be indexed by Google so such links are useless but I found in my Google webmaster there are many nofollow links captured.

So, is it still true that nofollow backlinks will not get indexed?

Please share your experience.

Thanks,
Samuel I think no follow link is indexed by Google but it devaluated to keyword ranking, no follow link worth full for traffic. it get indexed ,, i check mine as well from Google:
Quote: How does Google handle nofollowed links?

In general, we don't follow them. This means that Google does not transfer PageRank or anchor text across these links. Essentially, using nofollow causes us to drop the target links from our overall graph of the web. However, the target pages may still appear in our index if other sites link to them without using nofollow, or if the URLs are submitted to Google in a Sitemap. Also, it's important to note that other search engines may handle nofollow in slightly different ways.
About rel="nofollow" - Google Webmaster Tools Help HTMLBasicTutor's answer is to the point.

No follow links
1. will be indexed
2. Page rank will not be passed on
3. But will help you rank on SERP (I shared a related case study b4) link juice is not passed via no follow so no good for the PR building. but they can give you some extra visitors. so i think when you are doing link building then concentrate on high PR site first then then No/DO follow. high PR no follow links can give you some more visitors. nothing else. Nofollow links index but Google will not add as a backlink to your site. Generally back-links from a nofollow link are helpful in increasing the traffic for a website not in getting the quality back links. I think I agree with HTMLBasicTutor.

Google still index them but does not pass the page rank.

Thanks a lot My understanding is that nofollow links do not share the linking site's 'juice', but they will provide some SERP assistance, and goes towards creating a balanced link profile, which is always a good thing.
