This is a "nofollow" blog software, I knew this all along and felt most free and at ease then. But at the same time, that should make you feel more relaxed also. For example I submitted two links of two websites that I've redesigned as an example of Flash use. And the post was deleted possibly as suspected spam. This is how "nofollow" works: If I post a link to a website I am trying to promote - if it's "nofollow" blog - then I not only waste my time but I *lose* valuable Google juice. That is fact. Which is why I am very careful never to mention the URLs I am trying to promote on a nofollow blog. But don't really mind mentioning the ones that are strongly established and can be therefore suffer the negative PR hit. When promoting a website on a blog, some people dig out "DoFollow" blog directories and so forth. They are truly good for promotion and link juice but never "nofollow" ones. When I am on a nofollow blog, I just feel like a break and chatting nothing else - my intention is never promotion. So I use my real name (as opposed to of Keyword1 + Keyword2) and I use my own website - which I never care about. In short, anyone adding links here, they always lose - and you always gain. You retain PR. And on top of that you get extra points for "refreshing" content. Google likes busy blogs. So it pays to give them the benefit of the doubt before deleting a post with external links. But on the other hand if it is a boring and useless comment - then sure, delete it by all means - it is after all *your* blog and as such you get to decide. Rob

The nofollow attribute still serves as an anchor to your site with no Search benefits.
