Rant: Nofollow links drive more traffic than people admit

My site gets regular visits from nofollow backlinks, not just dofollow ones. Everyone chases dofollow for SEO, but I think nofollow links boost trust and user signals just as much. Do you still skip nofollow links in your work?

My friend’s bakery gets most of its weekend orders from a nofollow link in a local blog.

Saw a coffee shop get all its regulars just from neighborhood chatter. Makes you wonder if local buzz is the real secret, huh?
