Forum links

[sesertin]

If you are building links in forums how can you decide which forums to post to? Of course you can have a look at averall traffic in Alexa or mozrank but is there anything else you can look at?

I think the obvious answer here is using forums that are related to your niche topics.  That's far more important that mozrank or traffic.

Forum links can be kind of tricky.  Several have a 3 month waiting time for you to be able to have links in your signature, while some require you to just be a member for a while so that they know you can be trusted.  The best place to start would probably be any forums that you actually participate in.  From there I would start searching for industry relevant forums (keyword intitle:"Forums").
