Feuture Request: Native No Follow Links

See original GitHub issue

Why are the links No Follow important?

No Follow Links are Important for Web Positioning. Include in your SEO Strategy the use of Backlinks with No Follow Attribute

Now in Ghost: <a href="https://example.com">Web Link</a>

I request this feature: <a href="https://example.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Web Link No follow</a>

Could it be a native ghost function?

I had a quick look at Flarum - it’s a forum so the content is user-generated and untrusted so it’s correct to use rel="nofollow" on links there, that’s not the case for blog or general site content that Ghost is built for.

If we were to add comment functionality to Ghost then any links in those comments would have rel="nofollow" added because that’s a proper use-case for it.

Hey!

There should be an option to chose the link attribute as otherwise on the latest ghost version, the HTML box opens up, and then we have to deal with alignment etc. as by default it puts it in the middle of the page. And no one would want to do that in a long blog post with 2000 words and 50 external links.
