Flickr Follows
Feb 15
I was working on my personal photo blog recently and I decided to start copying photos over to my Flickr account. I setup a separate set (group) called ‘Passionate Photo‘ hoping to drive a little Flicker traffic to the site. I made sure I had a good title, description and tags. I also added the following terms in the description of each photo:
“Feel free to use this photo for your website or blog as long as the complete watermark stays visible and readable. If you need to crop out the watermark or it becomes unreadable please link to http://passionatephoto.com/ with photo credit.“
I was pleasantly surprised to see that my blog URLs on the main pages does not have the rel="nofollow" tag included. I noticed this when I received a Google Alert and clicked the link. (I use the SeoQuake Firefox plugin that helps me quickly see the do-follow links.)
Flickr.com has a Google PageRank of 09/10 and is rated 32 by Alexa.
