Dofollow links can pass PageRank; nofollow/ugc/sponsored usually do not. ScrollLaunch concentrates free/premium dofollow equity on each live product page.

Use this checker on directories and guest posts before you invest time - confirm the listing page actually emits dofollow anchors.

Questions

Dofollow Check FAQ

What is the difference between dofollow and nofollow?

A dofollow link (no nofollow/sponsored in rel) can pass link equity. nofollow, sponsored, and similar hints tell search engines not to treat the link as an editorial endorsement.

Why does ScrollLaunch care about dofollow links?

Our launch promise is one high-DR dofollow backlink per live product via its product page. Other discovery surfaces use nofollow so equity stays on that canonical URL. See pricing.

How does this checker classify links?

We parse unique http(s) anchors, read the rel attribute, and flag dofollow (default), nofollow, sponsored, ugc, plus internal vs external based on the page host.

Does sponsored count as dofollow?

In this tool, sponsored is treated like a non-dofollow hint (aligned with common SEO practice). Paid placements that intentionally omit sponsored are a separate policy choice.

Are private or localhost URLs supported?

No. Only public http(s) hosts are allowed.
