It's not as simple as that. Plenty of large publishers that link to reputable sources with a no-follow link. That does not mean it's not to be trusted. Google just tends to ignore those links (or so they have us believe). There are also a lot of pure shite websites and link farms that provide you with a do-follow link. Does that mean that the URL can be trusted? Not really.nofollow tells google that the nofollowed link is not trustworthy, so it won't carry too much link juice (SEO value), while dof0llow tells google that the link is trustworthy and should be taken into account when it calculates its SEO value

They called it nofollow so their bot wouldn't follow it and thus it wouldn't count towards PR.
do you believe them not counting it towards ranking?
One obvious reason is if that will be the case, all links do follow, then google algo can easily detect that you are link building.Why do you need the ratio of DF and NF, and not just have DF in your arsenal?
Thread should be locked now.Before asking you should use search box.
