"@ambreen11 Thank you for the feedback. I wasn't aware that Disqus was a nofollow, but it makes sense. We want to minimize spammers, not encourage them. As far as backlinks go, Disqus makes it easy to see where users are posting and engaging. As an example, I just clicked on your username above and found that you've posted 3 additional places and two are directly related to Disqus. So far, I'm pleased with my decision to roll with Disqus, although, Livefyre was setting up to be a great alternative. Thanks for responding!" - Damond Nollan
