Google Says Links In Press Releases Should Be Nofollowed

http://www.seroundtable.com/google-press-releases-nofollow-17151.html

Google says they are not natural links and are advertisement. I think PR links are natural, but that’s just me.

If you took Google’s push on no-follow to the nth degree there would be no more links. Then we’d be back to on-page signals. Maybe social media but I think that’s crap because it’s so easy to manipulate.

Google spends so much time trying to Band-Aid I think their algorithm is broken and even though they hype new ranking ideas, patents, etc. that they are stuck with this huge mammoth ranking algorithm. They have probably lost control of the million and millions of lines of code; but, just a skeptical guess.
