There are a few things you can do to make this easier. Firstly there is a firefox addon which will highlight dofollow links and nofollow links so you dont have to check the source code.
But! You are goin to find the search for dofollow blogs very laborious! 99% of blogs are now nofollow by default.
Contributors Welcome! Theres about 600 dofollow blogs so far but more are on the way. There are some blogs which have added the nofollow back to their comments but are still advertising the dofollow logo. If you find any like this then let me know.

The face you've asked this question shows you know little about SEO. Finding blogs with dofollow to get free links is a huge waste of time. Instead, spend that time developing great content so you can go out and attract links the normal way. Unless you're a third-world SEO with so mcuh time on your hands and a standard of living that permits you to live on 2.50 a day shoot for a better strategy.

Sort of what I was going to say. Don't waste your time on low-quality links. Create great content and the links will come.

Yes and no, let us talk in our niche (SEO) there are a lot of A bloggers with dofollow enabled -Andy Beard- is one of them, many post on Andy's blog ended up with PR 4 after the update so if you have SEO related site is not going to be useful to have some comments there?
I see blog commenting like any other SEO technique it could be worthless if you misuse it and useful if you use it well.
Content still king but as an SEO you shouldnt save any mean to obtain related quality link, if links from comments are not useful Google wouldnt forced Wordpress to nofollow them in the default installation.

If you consider dofollow blogs as a method of acquiring links, one of many, then you are still using low end strategies to get links. YES it is probably worth >0, do you waste your time writing comments for it ? No?
Do you write the comments on related blogs to participate within the community and generate interest for your own comments through your contribution? Yes.
Dofollow = blogs (links) that do not use nofollow attributes on their commentors web site links.

djstreet I need to ask if you have done any experiment in the past like this:
- 10 comments on 10 quality related blog posts to your medium/low competition keyword, and that didnt affect your position at all nor improved the PR of the targeted page.
If so then that is I can not argue results coming from experiments, however describing the impact of inbound links from related quality blogs to be close to 0 is very harsh judgment that many SEOs will disagree with.

That sounds like something that we could fairly easily test.
I can set up a test page on a very low competion keyword, we can wait for it to rank, then get some dofollow blog links and see how much if any SERPs improvement we get.
Any thoughts or suggesitons on a test before I go and set it up?

I never disagreed with the notion posting on comments for SEO benefit wouldn't work. What I'm saying is that you're not a high caliber SEO if you think dofollow blogs are a main strategy to getting links. You comment on blogs to add to a community not for link juice benefit. Personally my time isn't worth searching for blogs that don't have nofollow then posting comments just for a marginal benefit short term.
The test will succeed for uncompetitive keywords. At the end of the day, I'll reiterate, it's a poor strategy to acquiring links. The value added is in the contribution to a market community and residual traffic benefit from clickthroughs.

Oh, I agree. Im sure they will do something but I don't think very much.
It might be worth testing this on several keywords with varied levels of competition.
We might find that for very uncompetetive terms it makes a big difference but for slightly competetive terms it amounts to nothing.
This will help guage value and will tell us how much, if any time is worth spending on it.
Personally I don't do much blog commenting at all, unless its relevant to my site and industry, and then I don't care if its NOFOLLOW because the reason I put it there was not for the link but because it was relevant.
