  NoFollow is an attribute related with the tag REL. For example <a href="your domain.com" rel="nofollow"> your anchor text</a>. If you add this attribute, the SE robots will not crawl this link.

  If you don't have the tool to determine nofollow links, nor do not know how to check out the link attribute, you won't be able to determine if it is nofollow or not... Try installing plugins like Quirk SearchStatus on your browser, you can see which links are nofollow.

  no follow means that search engines can read the anchor text but cannot follow the link from it. So if you place a link on a no-follow page then you won't get any value from it seo wise.

  Nofollow was introduced originally by Google to combat spamming.
  It backfired a bit on Google, because it was used inflationary by webmasters to advantageously control the PageRank flow.
  Please beware of the algorithm change by Google in 2009:
  
  Quote from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nofollow
  
  "On June 15, 2009, Matt Cutts, a well known software engineer of Google, announced Matt Cutts Blog (June 15, 2009), that GoogleBot will no longer treat nofollowed links in the same way, in order to prevent webmasters from using nofollow for PageRank Sculpting. As a result of this change the usage of nofollow leads to evaporation of pagerank.^{[citation needed]} In order to avoid the above, SEOs developed alternative techniques that replace nofollowed tags with obfuscated Javascript..."
  
  Especially the sentence: "As a result of this change the usage of nofollow leads to evaporation of pagerank" is disturbing...
  
  I have created an attractive and elegant nofollow alternative, based on JavaScript, that preserves PageRank:

  No-follow attribute is used to stop flowing the link juice towards the site to which you have given the link within your site.

  Na fallow is the process by which you will not find link benefit from other side if you place anchor text for your site. Actually due to link you can find traffic, Indexing and back-link juice with do fallow, but if your link in rel=no fallow, then you do not find link juice for Google SERP.

  Early 2005 Google announced that hyperlinks (a clickable link to a webpage) with the rel="nofollow" attribute would not be counted as a backlink for the purposes of PageRank or influence the target sites ranking in the search engine.
  
  Its intent was to reduce the value of spam, made by people and bots (an automated program) spamming comments on blogs and forums.

  The links that a search engine does not index or read are known as no-follow links. There is no real SEO advantage of using them.

  No Follow is an attribute web masters can place on links that tell search engines not to count the link as a vote or not to send any trust to that site.A no follow code does not block the content of a web page from view or prevent the indexing of content. The intention of the no follow code is the prevention of spam and spamdexing.

  Do not waste is a process where you can not find the link to benefit from the other side of the place where the anchor text of your website. In fact, because you can find a link to the traffic index and link to the juice aside, but if the link rel = not set aside, so you can not find a link to Google snake juice.
