Stop rewarding websites with donotlink.it

[Luther Blissett]

All types of websites use our illness to generate traffic and revenue. There is a way to reduce their reward for providing poor and or harmful information.

Whenever you link a website, its position in search engines is strengthened. Sometimes you want to post a link to a website without improving its rank. This is where donotlink.it comes in.

To use, either go to the website and paste the link to the site there, https://donotlink.it/ , or add https://donotlink.it/ to the front of the link manually.

an example will look like: https://donotlink.it/http://example.com The first part does the 'do not link' magic, https://donotlink.it/ , the second part http://example.com is the link to the site.

Another example: https://donotlink.it/https://www.theguardian.com/science/audio/2018/nov/02/what-role-should-the-public-play-in-science-science-weekly-podcast

This seems to me a good way to use our activism, so if anyone is unsure exactly how to go about it, do not be afraid to ask. It's helpful that 'do not link' should be easy enough for most of us to remember.

All links on this forum have rel="nofollow" attribute so robots won't follow them anyway, and won't raise the websites page rank.
