Do blogroll links carry link juice or should they be nofollow links?

Blogroll links are 'do follow' in nature unless you manually edit them to be a no follow. Yes, these links always tend to get the link juice from all your webpages and hence they are very helpful to gain page rank or popularity for your website. These links are helpful to generate good traffic if built from high authority websites. They help to build your online reputation and ranking in search engines.

Yes, blogroll links carry link juice if they are a normal hyperlink without rel="nofollow" and as long as they are coming from a trustworthy website that hasn't been identified as a spam site or hasn't been identified as a site that is selling links.

Should you buy blogroll links from Fiverr.com and other places like that?
Heck No!

The reason you don't want to buy those blogroll links from places like Fiverr.com is because they are magnets for Google Penguin penalties. When you get a blogroll link you are usually getting a link from every single page and post on that blog. If that blog has one hundred indexed pages then you are getting one hundred links pointing to your website all using the exact same anchor text. That is a big red flag for Penguin. You can get away with it if the blog is trustworthy enough. But the people selling those blogroll links on places like Fiverr are usually selling pure spam links. Even if they say they are limiting their blog to a certain number of relevant links only, you will discover that they don't live up to their word. Getting one single blogroll link to your page can and probably will get that page severely demoted in the search results.

Whether or not a blogroll passes links juice or not is going to depend on how the websites is setup. These days there are many blogrolls that are "nofollow" so they won't pass link juice.

If you can find some blogrolls with "dofollow" backlinks then those will pass link juice to the site that the link is for and give it an SEO boost.

Blogroll do have passes link juice until it is not nofollow. I think today most of the bloggers does not allow blogroll links because it will consider as link farming if you do it too much with dofollow link. This will make hurt your site SEO. Today webmasters buy sponsored posting and insert link within their post.

Is there a way that we can tell if a blog link is dofollow or nofollow without us having a link on that blog?

Yes, You can check the link. If you are using Mozilla or chrome just hover to the links and right click on it. You will find some option in your mouse click. Select ''inspect element" option. Here you can see whether the link is nofollow or dofollow.

Great advice by vishwa as always and an easy way to check links. There are also some extensions / add-on's for most of the browsers that have the ability to tell whether a link is nofollow or dofollow as well but vishwa's way is the easiest and doesn't require you to download or add anything to your browser.

You can also have the url checked by some websites that tell this but again it is more work.
