Why Are E-Commerce Sites Using nofollows on Product Pages?

by @georgeswi (114), 1 year ago

Hi,

I have been looking at big e-commerce websites and I've noticed a lot of them have nofollow links on shop pages and the homepage. Obviously we learn that follow links are good for passing "link juice". So, I'm wondering why so many e-commerce sites are using nofollows. Is this to preserve crawl budget or a different reason?

Thanks.

Traditionally no follow links signify that the internet site being linked to is not a vastly credible source. In including this tag the writer is pronouncing they do not choose to bypass on a vote of self belief to this website, which for this reason capacity the hyperlink would not switch the equal search engine marketing advantages as a observe hyperlink would.

E-commerce sites often use "nofollow" links on product pages to prevent search engines from crawling and indexing certain links, such as filters, sorting options, or user-generated content, which helps to avoid potential duplicate content issues and maintain SEO relevance.
