COMMENTS, REACTIONS, CONTRIBUTIONS OF ARTICLES AND NEWS& OTHER CONTENT

Model-Max wants our visitors to know that it is now ourpolicy to follow those who made comments & to comment back! While thispolicy is aimed to enliven the discussion, we also reserve the right to deletecomments that only aim to spam.

We want our readers to react to our post, and in returnwe'll return the favor! This I Follow movement is not our original concept, wewere fortunate to discover this movement from one of the blogs we have visited.The movement originated from web designer and blogger Randa Clay, and here's the essentials:

Almost all blogplatforms by default are set up so that a "dead end" piece of code is insertedwherever there is a link in a comment, so that search engines will not "count"the link as they are crawling the internet. This was originally designed tohelp stop comment spam, but it doesn't work. What it does is remove some of theincentive for your readers contribute to your site by commenting on your posts.

What can you do about it? Turn off "nofollow". Show your commenters that you appreciate them. Spread the link love.
