Forum Linking continued
I have recently begun spending time building forum links to several of my sites. I really like high PR rank forums that have a lot of activity. These do not need to be in the same area as the website you are promoting.
Forums Comment Posting–
I like the really large forums because your individual posts are not scrutinized. Some of the smaller forums will look at all of your posts to see what is up. The larger forums you are pretty much anonymous.
Some of the smaller forums the owners–administrators are really against us putting in links. Go to the next forum when this happens.
Change Your Forum Signature
You can start by making comments without a Forum signature. Then when you add a signature later you the forum will add your link to all the pages that you have made posts on.
I have started to always add a couple of comments on the forum after I have signed up and gotten my website in the profile page. I usually put a couple of different websites in the signature page.
Great articles on Blogging
Here is a link to a great article and I read all of these blogs—usually when I am linking to a new site—all the sites have a ton of traffic and the links show up quickly. I only link twice to a website from a blog—Sometimes I will come back and get more but i believe after the first two links from one site the rest are ignored.

After you read an article on one of these sites put up a link to one of your sites, then read another article and put up another link to that site, if you read another article put up another link but make it to a different website. All of the websites he talks about in this article are top of the heap.
Finding Forums
How do I find Forums to sign up for and post comments in. First I just do a quick Google search and put “Bicycle Forum” or” Rodeo Forum” or” Skiing Forum” as the search. Then I take the top PR forum on the first page of the results and sign up.
Naturally you can add keyword rich links in posts. This can be risky, because you’ll always bring attention to yourself by bumping an old post to the top.
Signature links are good to get traffic but some time it is called spamming. So aware of it!
