    I just published an article on Hubpages and just realised it has no follow links. It really seems like a waste of time because I cant see why someone would copy and paste it onto their own site and include the backlinks.

    I have published articles on ezine and Squidoo which are follow links. Can anyone recommend any other article sites which are follow links.

    People dont tend to copy and paste from hubpages or squidoo. They copy and paste from article directories, which hubpages and squidoo arent

    Hubpages are nofollow until your profile score rises above 75 so create say 10 hubs of decent quality and it will rise. The profile page itself though is follow so add a link in the bio box

    All article sites are folllow. Ezinearticles just chose to nofollow the links in the body , well for most people it seems

    In the profile/bio box its still follow and thats what you want. When someone takes that article and places it on their site, that link is still so SO much better than a link from a links page or resources page on a site which has no decent content or relevance

    Dont worry about nofollows on article sites, just get submitting to the top directories and it will pan out

    Even if links are no follow they are not worthless, just because a link has the no follow tag doesn't mean that the spiders stop as soon as they see it.

    No follow links do not pass on pr (but that is worthless any way) but they do pass on trust.

    Put it another way I'd rather have one quality no follow link from a trusted resource such as Wikipedia (or even the top article sites to keep my response on topic) than dozens of follow links from spammy link farmy type sites.

    Great in theory - but it doesn't happen much - especially if the article is pants - which 99.9% are

    The Other article sites you can include in your kitty can be :
    -articlealley.com
    -a1articles.com
    -goarticles.com
    -articlebase.com

    Ezine articles do sometimes reject the article for having link in the resource box.
