Nofollow with a bounce-URL
This is a simple (“simple” hah, it’s pretty complex for a simple annotation) implementation of a bounce URL for adding rel=nofollow support to a static HTML site. (More on other nofollow approaches)
Overview We’ll modify 3 things:
Add a /nofollow/ URL which redirects as appropriate Add the /nofollow/ URL to the site’s robots.txt. Modify the render-link.html code to swap in the rel=nofollow Passing mechanism: We’ll use URL anchors (/folder/page#anchor) to pass the destination URL.
