ok so i got my site setup now:
and i got several links pointing back to the index page should i put nofollow on a few or no? suggestions?
Why would you do that?
Adding nofollow to links to your own site is just throwing away PR.
i was told on another forum, placing two links to the same page kills the pr thus you must use nofollow on one.
on another note i got links to: http://www.vunzu.com an estore site i got but different domain, so i should remove nofollow links to that site as well?
You’ve been given bad advice. You should never nofollow your own links. That’s not what it’s for – Google created it so you tell Google a link is user generated, possibly spammy, and not something you endorse.
The PageRank passed to a link is the PR of the linking page, times (1 divided by the number of links on the page). For example, if there are 10 total links on the page, each gains 1/10th of the linking page’s PageRank.
If you mark a link as nofollow, the linked page receives no benefit from that link. However, the other links on the page still get the same PR they would normally. If you have 10 links and mark one as nofollow, the other 9 still get 1/10th of the PR each, not 1/9. If that one link went to one of your own pages, you’ve thrown away PR you could’ve sent it, and gained nothing in return.
It is designed like this specifically so that you can’t manipulate SERPs by selectively distributing PR using the nofollow attribute. That’s not what it’s for.
Here’s the same explanation, from Matt Cutts at Google:
putting nofollow is not a good idea… google suggest to use nofollow if the link is paid… http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=66736
i think nofollow is useless and not effective to do, because it can’t increase traffic and pR…
Thanks

Really? I though that PR will never change because of the links to the other sites
Hope you guys paid attention to this bit in particular, the amount of PR passed on cannot be manipulated using nofollow. The funniest thing is that Google implemented this over 12 months before they told everybody about it which means that for at least 12 months people were charging big money to ‘silo’ claiming that it worked and it couldn’t possibly have been working…
I wouldn’t worry about that and I wouldn’t take too much advice from other webmasters. They have no clue what Googles algorithm is.
or worst being malicious 
thanks you guys!
Well, I linked you to Matt Cutts, a Google employee who works in Google search, telling you the same thing…
Wrong.
Aside from Dan’s link to the video of the head of Google’s anti spam team saying exactly what Dan said, we have a ton of clues. We know why nofollow was invented by Google, we know how it was abused and why and we know what steps Google have taken to prevent that abuse because they made it public.
As for the search algorithm, which is a seperate subject from nofollow, no one may know it exactly except Google but in many ways that’s almost irrelevant, what really matters is understanding what Google want because that influences everything they do and everything they try to make US do. It’s 530, I get it, do you?
