Do-follow & no-follow are types of links in SEO. Do-follow pass the link juice while No-follow links won't!

[JanviArora]

A "dofollow" link is a regular HTML link that allows search engines to follow it and reach the linked page, passing along any "link juice" or SEO value that the linking page has. These links are used to help search engines determine the quality and relevance of a website, which can impact its search engine ranking.

On the other hand, a "nofollow" link is a link that has the "rel=nofollow" attribute, which instructs search engines not to follow the link, meaning that the linked page will not receive any SEO value from the linking page. Nofollow links are commonly used to link to untrusted or low-quality content or to avoid passing along any SEO value to sites you don't want to associate with.

So, in summary, dofollow links are used to pass along link juice and to help improve search engine rankings, while nofollow links are used to tell search engines not to follow the link, preserving the linking page's link juice.
