I think in the seo process both no follow and do follow links matter
do follow count as back link to the site from search engine. It's important for site ranking to get quality back links.no follow doesn't count as back link to the site from search engine but it can be helpful as an traffic generate source if it's come from high pr sites.

Dofollow link

Dofollow is a default value of anchor tag(<a>) rel attribute. It is a link building technique. It is used for back linking purpose. Back linking means how many incoming links to your website. It helps to increase your Google page rank. It is also for optimizing search engine.

Nofollow link

It is a HTML anchor tag <a> rel attribute value. It tells to search engine that particular link should not follow by search engine index. When a link with nofollow then it's not impact on search engine index. Basically make nofollow link for paid links.

Dofollow is the most powerful way to influence search engines to redirect a lot of traffic to your site. Search engine crawlers crawl the whole content on your webpage including images, links, keywords etc. Whenever they find a link, if the link is dofollow link then the crawlers follow the link and land on other webpage.
While Nofollow backlinks are ignored by search engine crawlers. Whenever you are linking to any website which is not of high value then use rel="nofollow" attribute in your html of the webpage.

Do follow link are those links which get crawled by Google while no follow links are the opposite one.

Do-follow links are the links which Google crawls and pass the link juice to your website. Do-follow links are beneficial for improving the website's page rank, traffic and ranking in search engine results.

No-follow links are the links which have "rel=nofollow" attribute in their anchor element. Google does not crawls those links and are only useful for generating a website traffic.

Nofollow links attributes do not allow search engine bots to follow link.That means if the website owner is linking back to you with nofollow attributes, it does not pass on link juice. Only Humans will be able to follow the links. Though some time back Google made it clear that they don’t consider nofollow link attributes but weightage of such links are really less. Even though, it’s a good practice to use Nofollow link attribute to those link, where you don’t want to pass link-juice.

How to add Nofollow tag to a link
Dofollow links allow google (all search engines) to follow them and reach our website. Giving us link juice and a backlink. If a webmaster is linking back to you with this link both Search Engine and Humans will be able to follow you. The best way to give someone dofollow love is allowing keyword in the anchor text. This means when you are linking to any website or page, use the targeted keyword as anchor text.

Nofollow Links are used to hide the website link from the search engines. Dofollow links are the links which allows search engines bots to index the links.
