The rel="nofollow" Relationship

Converting to HTML 5

nofollow indicates to search engine crawlers and other robots that they should not follow the link to the referenced resource and process the document there. This can be used to indicate that the linked document should not be considered to be a recommended resource when determining the search engine rank for the linked page. This may help the page where the link appears from being penalized for "recommending" less desirable pages, such as for links to an affiliate site.
