How to Check Whether Link is Dofollow or Nofollow

Hi guys, It's good to be back after Ramadan. IftiSEO wishes you all Eid Mubarak. Well, today I have came with a small tutorial on How to Check Whether Link Is Dofollow or Nofollow.

The reason behind this is that I've found many of my blogging friends checking the link status via source code which actually takes some time. Moreover the bloggers who are running event blogs should have to work at a faster rate in building links (via commenting) and for them it's nearly impossible to check up the status of every blog, So this post is for them too.
