No, not at all. DoFollow links are necessary for website as per traffic and engagement. It is not harmful for website but it would be more effective when the dofollow and no follow links are in 60% & 40% ratio as per seo strategies implementation.
Can "Do Follow Links" decrease Our Website Ranking.?
Nope!
As far as you are creating do follow backlinks on valuable websites which are related to your business niche. If you're creating do follow links from irrelevant websites or spam websites then such do follow links can impact your current ranking negatively in SERPs.
So always try to gain do-follow backlinks from good websites which have good number of traffic and are related to your business niche.
Dofollow Link never increase website rank.
Dofollow links allow google (all search engines) to follow them and reach our website. Giving us link juice and a backlink. If a webmaster is linking back to you with this link both Search Engine and Humans will be able to follow you. The best way to give someone dofollow love is allowing keyword in the anchor text.
The question is misinterpreted by many. Riban meant Do follow OBL only. But Many interpreted as in bound do follow links. A high OBL page always distributes link juice to the targeting sites. Normally don't give do follow links unless the target site is trust worthy or sites belong to your own group. Google guideline on link-exchange or a blogroll advocates only a no-follow link. Otherwise google treat such links as toxic only. Hence, when you are on link exchange, try to avoid do follow links.
Hi Ripan, I read your description carefully which gives me an idea as to what you want to convey. Yeah, sometimes providing do follow links consistently to any website that is untrusted, possess less authority than yours, comes from different niche can decrease your SERP ranking if you don't, at the same time, make links for your site from the trusted domains. I hope it helps.
It all depends how and where you are taking the links from. There are certain Google guidelines about do-follow links. If you violate t hose guidelines then it can not only take your website's ranking down but also face a penalty hit. Please note that most of the penalty hits are coming due to content and do-follow links. So be careful about Google guidelines while creating do-follow links.
Do follow links is one kind of hyperlink. It allows google boat to follow the specific links and reach our website. It gives us a link juice. Do follow links always help us to increase website ranking.
making the higher backlinks to get do follow from other websites can down your website ranking. because making more unnecessarily back-link may be count as a spam!
So Be careful.
