Don't follow that! dofollow this instead.
What is it that makes people invent terms for something that doesn't exist and the word they invent doesn't actually mean what they apply it to? Then of course the "sheeple" pick up on this and run with because they think it makes them appear as if they know what they are talking about!Wrong!
Yep that's right "dofollow" or "do follow"
People, please, "dofollow" simply does not exist. There are links that are restricted (in theory) by the use of a "nofollow" value applied to the rel (related) attribute, BUT the absence of this limiting value does NOT mean that the link will be followed and/or pass value on for Internet search engines to use in their ranking calculation.
So the use of "dofollow links" by directory owners and the like is misleading at best.
Update
Matt Cutts on "nofollow"
Note well the use of the words not nofollowed

The DoFollow attribute is valid and is not some Internet Myth. The Search Engines do follow links from websites and weblogs. If you do not want your links followed you can stop them. If you want them to be followed by the Search Engine spiders then you can allow it.
Do some reading before you make this stuff up. Google has some very good articles written about this on their website and in their forum.
