Genesis Footer Links Nofollow

Description

This plugin makes all or selected links in the footer of Genesis child themes rel=nofollow for SEO benefits. (This does not include Footer Widgets). Optionally, you can exclude footer links on the home page from being set as “nofollow”. Footer links that appear on all pages of a site may be considered as unnatural or spammy by the search engines and will devalue those links.

This plugin requires the Genesis Theme Framework.

Why should I set footer links as nofollow?

Google may consider site-wide links as spammy.

My theme uses Footer Widgets. Will they be affected?

No. This only changes the links in the Site Footer (Where you’ll usually find the copyright)

Can I apply this to certain domains only?

Yes. Just enter a comma seperated list of domains to include:

google.com,yoursite.com
