Forum signature links in relevant categories of the forum

[tanveerayakhan]

Hello I want a question about forum signature backlink. Suppose I join a forum having following categories:

A

B

C

and the C category is relavant to my niche like for example the C category is about SEO and I want to build a website about SEO and want to put link in the signature for that webiste. So can i consider it as relevant category for my niche??? although the category A and B are not relevant to my niche and also I will not post in them???

Hi Tanveer,

You will get absolutely nothing from forum signatures, other than perhaps the odd click. As a link building strategy, these are amongst those on the "avoid" list.

Ok thanks for your reply and what about relevant quality guest post. Is it better to do that?

[Andy.Drinkwater]

Guest posting is still something a lot of people do and some see some great results, but it must be done carefully - very carefully! Get it wrong and you will be seeing the wrong end of a penalty from Google.

Thanks but please tell me as you said forum signature links are not good , guest blogging is not good then how should we go to make backlinks? Do you have a way like making web 2.0 and build teir 2 backlinks to it??? or any other method???
