Interesting... this seems to suggest that removing the links in not-to-be-followed links is better than just slapping them with a no-follow. |
This is helpful. Thanks. But we need some more information in this matter |
Matt Cutts has now written a post on PageRank sculpting:

He confirms that yes, you can't increase the PR of remaining links if you make say half of them nofollow. He also mentions how it might not be a good idea to nofollow most outgoing links, because just as Google would punish links to a bad neighborhood, they may reward links to good sites. |

It doesn't seem to have done any harm to the ranking of sites like Wikipedia and WiseGeek that nofollow all outgoing links on their article pages. |
