Hi there!
Its a great article, thanks for sharing.
But i am still a bit confused.
Actually i am trying to nofollow a particular link (say example.com) but not with a nofollow link, i am thinking of to do this by robots.txt.

So is this possible to nofollow any particular link by robots.txt??

@Eustache:

Although my first inclination is to say “yes and or some degree”, however based on the reality that each circumstance is truly unique.

Great volley, but there is always more than one way to skin a cat.

a) iframes
b) flash (dynamic 1.x delivery to ensure google doesnt see it)
c) java
d) and NOFOLLOW

User-agent: *

Disallow: /folder/

was only implied for the CGI-Bin folder, IFrames are not tangible solutions.

You can easily just use on page anchors as well such as http://www.website.com/page.html#nested-link

Let’s not make things too complex.
