What is Link Sculpting ?

[brettlee585]

The internal links have no follow tags and using them in directing the flow of Page Rank via your site is called link sculpting. By using this no follow on a particular link, the Page Rank ascribed to the link will instead be redistributed to some other links on that page.

Thank you guys, Every one contributed to the best of knowledge. Link Sculpting was a new term that i just heard through this forum. But still confused between pagerank sculpting & Link Sculpting? I am not clear about how to do it practically?

Link sculpting means using the No follow tag on internal links to direct the flow of PageRank through your site. The idea is that by using No follow on a link, the PageRank attributed to that link is instead redistributed to other links on that page.
