Hello

When discussion the NOFOLLOW, Matt commented ".. if you sell links, you
should mark them with the nofollow tag. Not doing so can affect your
reputation ..."

* Google 'invent' rel="nofollow"

* Other crawlers follow suit

* Google require the use of rel="nofollow"

* Google penalise for no use of rel="nofollow"

* Without crawlers obeying the route, why would anyone buy/sell links

Traffic. Original point of the exercise. One that wouldn't be affected
by nofollow.

Yes, of course. I left it aside only to support an argument (critique).
