Since the 'follow' link was so abused by spammers for ranking purposes, Google has really increased pressure on sites that have excessive 'follow' links.
The 'nofollow' is still a great marketing tool. You should still be commenting, sharing your links, and getting your name/brand out there for the human element. You just wont see the same boast from a 'follow' link, like the good old days.
Google does track traffic and how long visitors stay on your site, so, even a visitor who comes to your domain from a 'nofollow' link, but stays awhile, interacts with your content, etc can prove to be valuable.
Folks used to use guest blogging and blog commenting strictly to build incoming links to their sites. This has been the lightning rod for much of the 'nofollow' discussion. The point of guest blogging and commenting should not be for building inbound links, but to build inbound traffic.
I don't believe that it does. If you eliminate the follow links then you decrease organic business growth.

If you no follow a link this will mean that you are telling Google you do not vouch for that website and that website won't get any SEO strength.
Hope that helps.

If you are getting 10k UV already, you need to only combine content and email marketing to increase the visits, but if you really want to grow to 500K UV or more, you will need to do a lot of activities, repeatedly for about 6-9 months.. Then there are other things you can do.which will result in more downloads or purchases for you.

What is the most common way for a reputable startup to get more links, other than generating link worthy content. Do people still buy links?
What worked great for me is to watch what competitors are building and to reach out where I could to get a review myself. So focus on building a great product and ask people to review it.RG

Does Tier linking that's currently effective and soon may be penalized and discovered later by the big G?
Any unnatural linking will always be noticed at some point + penalized. Better to have a site which is so valuable people naturally link to the site. Then market that site.DF

How can I suggest songs to listen to to my website users?
You can share the individual song by grabbing the Embed code in Spotify. To do this, find the song in Spotify and click on the ellipsis, aka the three dots (...) to display more options. Select Share --> Copy Embed Code and place this code where you want the song to display on your website. You will also see other options available. If you choose "Song Link" it will open the song in Spotify. Another option is to create a playlist of the songs you want to suggest and embed the entire playlist. If you aren't restricted to using Spotify, you can also embed songs from YouTube or create a YouTube playlist of the songs you want to share. Hope this helps!LC
