Effective forum posting for getting rank and traffic

Effectiveness of the forum posting varies member to member, website to website and purpose of using it.

1. If you use same niche forums then it is helpful for traffic and conversion as well.
2. If forums give dofollow links then it can help to rank as well.
3. Which forums do you pick for promotion also does matter.
For me: getting rank is 50% effective while for traffic 70%

If they are related, yes. Post in them, but do NOT spam. IF possible place a link in your signature with your secondary keyword for example, but check if the link is dofollow which will actually help you!

I think what maters in the forums is the dignity on of you in that forum, :rolleyes:

What I mean here is that if you are an active member and non spammer and have good knowledge in relevant niche, then no one cares that you are spamming,

I you are an newbie and only do link building then it matter,

Because the value of the link is depend not only the PR and the relevancy, also the activeness..

@webnesia , I also accept that, But according to my experience, If you have active forum links with good traffic it also good. :-)

But lot of forum links are spam posts , so no SEO value on there..

I am on a half dozen paid to post forums. I get paid for posting 3-4 lines comments. usually I spend one hour or two posting on these forums and I make $2-3. Good thing about posting on these forums is I use my website address in the signature as will as on my profile description. This has helped me in getting traffic and backlinking.

I know that forum posting is one effective way of getting traffic from backlinks especially if the niche of the forum is the same as you website’s niche. However, most forums don’t allow backlinks and even disallow the link of your website in signatures. I am actually observing some forums that I visit on this issue and now I realize that it is easier to post a comment in a blog with your signature than posting in a forum to spread your backlinks.
