Sitemap: http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml.gz On each page email link is as follows:
<a href="/tools/email.php?aid=100" rel="nofollow">Email this page to a friend</a> But log shows that Google and other search engines are still following the links. Am I doing something wrong here?
TIA
It will allow Google to access a url like this:
http://www.example.com/red/tools/email.php
Also please remember that rel="nofollow" was not intended to restrict robot access (even though it is called nofollow). Its purpose is to identify untrusted links to Google.
