Thanks for the answer! Can you think of any reason why yelp doesn't nofollow these links? They seem to nofollow a lot of links within their own site, so it seems strange that these links are not nofollow'd.

Does Yelp pass link juice?posted in Technical SEO
This is probably a profoundly obvious question, but I can't seem to find an explicit answer on the internet, so I'll ask it here:
Yelp's links out to local business websites are not nofollow'd, but they go through a javascript-based redirect. My understanding is that javascript redirected links do not pass link juice, so a link from a yelp profile will not directly impact my page authority; however, it looks like yelp does use nofollow judiciously for internal links, so I don't understand why they would allow follow for these "useless" outbound links.
Do yelp's javascript-redirected links pass link juice?
