Hello members, I am not from software or IT background so do not know about these two HTML code/word like target="_blank" and rel="nofollow". Is these word has anything to do with SEO?

Hi Paresh, You should try doing Google search for such queries, you will get much better answers, with detailed explanations. In short, rel="nofollow" is done to protect your page rank juice. If you do not use it in a link that means you are telling Google and other search engines that the other page is better than this for the topic of the page. target="_blank" is used so that the linked page opens in a new tab rather in the same window.
