Here are a few interesting tags, that are helpfull for html pages.

Nofollow Attribute

Example of a HTML markup for an ordinary link might look :

<a href="http://www.mysite.com/page.html">Visit My Page</a>

Now the nofollow attribute has been added, with the attribute portion in bold

<a href="http://www.mysite.com/page.html" rel="nofollow">Visit My Page</a>

A way to show the relationship between your page and the page you're linking to :

<a href="http://www.mysite.com/" rel="my cool website">Tips</a>
OR
<a href="http://www.mysite.com/" rel="my cool website nofollow">Tips</a>

What Nofollow Means

When a Search Engine sees nofollow as part of a link, it will:
  1. NOT follow through to that page.
  2. NOT count the link in calculating PageRank link popularity scores.
  3. NOT count the anchor text in determining what terms the page being linked to is relevant for.
