Does Awesome Indie give a dofollow link?
On the 9 Awesome Indie listings we checked in October 2026: 9 of 9 nofollow. All listing pages were indexable.
Every listing we sampled marks the link to the product as nofollow. Search engines are told not to count it as an endorsement, so it is not a backlink in the SEO sense, though people can still click it.
On 1 of the 10 pages we could not identify a link to the product's own site in the HTML; those pages are left out of the count.
None of the 10 listing pages carries a noindex directive, so the pages themselves can be indexed.
