Well, it was bound to happen some time or another…
Twitter decided that it would not be feeding the search engines anymore. I first noticed this yesterday and thought I was seeing things… but nope, looks like it’s here to stay. All links posted inside your tweets now have the dreaded “nofollow” tag embedded into them. Bye bye spider-food!
So I guess Twitter loves you having followers and loves you following others but it doesn’t want the search engines following you. One consolation: Your web URL in your profile can still be indexed. Small consolation.
For those of us that “twitter” because we love it… no skin off our nose!
For those of us that “twitter” because we love it…it is O.K.
But for the others that twitter because they want to increase their ranking …it is not that O.K.
Am I right or am I reading it wrong?
Please let me know what you think.
