1. Human traffic: You can still get traffic from nofollow links. You wont get traffic from search engines, but from the websites themselves. If you have good backlinks, this can be very beneficial even though the links are nofollow.

 

2. Search engines still follow: Although links are deemed nofollow, search engines will still follow the link and index your page in some cases. Most wont let the backlink impact your search engine rankings or PageRank, though.

 

3. Having only dofollow is suspicious: As Googles (and other search engines) algorithms become better, they might find it suspicious that a website has only dofollow backlinks. If your website generates natural backlinks you should be fine, but if not, you dont want to create only dofollow backlinks.

 

4. It doesnt hurt: Nofollow links cant hurt your website. Search engines wont let them impact your rank (for better or worse).

 

5. They still count (in some ways): Some search engines still use nofollow links to determine ranking (most of the large ones dont, but still). Also, nofollow links might still have a part in the search algorithms. We dont know the exact details of the algorithms, so we dont really know.
