Forums to increase the Link Authority

[leadsprofi]

I have a small question.

What do you think if we use the Forums on a natural way, to place important post with a link to our website on that, it's a good source or not, to use like a piece of link building strategy, to increase the authority of domains, and hiring backlinks  from more than 15 types of websites, like blogs,forums,press,guestposts,directories,etc...???

Write your idea here if you have experience on that.

As long as you keep it natural and view it more as a source of traffic rather than SEO metrics, you should be fine posting on forums, blogs, guest posts, etc.

not only traffic, but for a seo purpose too, i receive links from lot of different sources, but i think if i post the thread/topics on forums, and on the content i place my website with a non-exact-anchor-text, and i use something like: My Website, Click my Website, Visit here, here is Url, etc..

it's this good to increase the domain authority or not?!

Forum links typically do not carry follow links or a lot SEO value. Therefore, I think previous poster got it right on.

A waste of time.

Write some thing really good about your subject matter, either host it on your site and attract links, or find a good place blog to guest post it that allows links back to your site. (not a article posting site, they are useless)
