Is getting links on no follow blogs a good idea?

Is commenting on no follow blogs a good way of getting back links?
-
Yes, it is a good idea,
You dont want to have 100% "do follow" comments, it is simply unnatural for big G.
just dont put to much effort into it.

I agree with Stores Direct...
Blog Commenting has actual marketing value past just SEO/SEM. Now is commenting on a blog "Keyword-Keyword-Keyword-Keyword.com a good idea... Probably not or is getting thousands or even hundreds of these in a day or maybe even month depending on your current link portfolio a good idea probably not as well.
But commenting on a post, on a reputable blog No Follow or not with a comment that is relevant and informational to the post in question is good for many things as stores direct points out, but should not be a focus to your overall strategy.
w00t!

I see leaving comments relating to the content on relevant blogs as being a valid part of a link building plan - this is a natural way of connecting and engaging with your target audience. As such it improves your chances of getting qualified traffic and organic links, and adds to your link diversity regardless of whether the link is no follow.
I think it would be unwise to focus too much on this approach as an excess of this type of link would look unnatural, and would steer clear of anything approaching comment spam. The test I use when leaving a blog comment is
- Do I have something to contribute to this conversation?
- Can a link to my website add value to this page?
-
I would say not really as google do not value no follow links. However a natural looking back-link profile would consist of some no follow links in my opinion.

1000 of links on my website ? is it good or bad
Hi guys my site: www.dorchdanola-netbutik.dk is a e-commerce store, and generally we have many links on all pages because of the many products and categories. Im not sure if this is actually bad or good? I've been told that it will definately harm my site when google crawls it. The thing is that google visit my site often and I still have good pageranks in google. So does it actually harm my site having all these products and categories? And what can I do about it if google see every page as duplicate content? I also link to my social pages like FB, G+, e.g. Should I put rel="nofollow" or rel="me" on these social links? Thanks guys!

Link building during link removal
We were advised by out outsourced link removal vendor not to build any links while they are removing links pointing to our site. I am worried that our site will lose significant traffic if we dont build any new links while waiting for them to remove links that caused our site to be penalized. What are your thoughts?

Is there a tool available to identify whether you already have a link for a specific blog/website?
Hi there, There are a couple of us in the office that are involved in link building - and sometimes it's difficult to keep track of where everybody is trying to build links. Does anybody know if there is a tool available where users can input both website addresses to check whether you already have a link from the desired website? Thanks in advance for your help.
