Are the links in the main menu and bottom menu Links dofollow or nofollow?
Purusothaman Ramanujam
It should be dofollow.

But when I inspected the elements it did not have that.

Apurba, they are NoFollow links.

Quote from Aliia Apurba, they are NoFollow links.

How about considering to make it dofollow? Are there any difficulties in that?

Apurba, I am sorry for giving incorrect information to you. Turned out that most of the links on Oxwall are actually dofollow ones, including menu links. So you don't need to edit anything ).

I could not find any "rel" attributes for the menu attributes when I did Inspect for them. For dofollow it should be re="dofollow" right?

If  rel="nofollow" is not specified in the link, then search engines consider those links as dofollow ones by default. So there is not need to set  rel="dofollow". More information can be found at http://support.google.com/...=en&answer=96569 .

Thanks. I did not knew that. The link that I followed said the other way. Sorry for that. My bad.
