Nofollow Only in Original HTML

What This Means

Pages that contain a meta robots nofollow in the raw HTML, and not in the rendered HTML. This means any hyperlinks in the raw HTML pre to JavaScript execution will not be followed.

What Triggers This Issue

Pages that contain a meta robots ‘nofollow’ directive in the raw HTML, and not in the rendered HTML. This means any hyperlinks in the raw HTML pre to JavaScript execution will not be followed. For example:

https://www.getasky.com/ Has the meta tag:

<meta name="robots" content="nofollow"> Which is then removed after JavaScript is executed.

How To Fix

Carefully review pages with nofollow in the raw HTML are expected not to be followed. Remove the ‘nofollow’ if links should be followed, crawled and indexed.
