Warrior Forum, Is it good for seo?

[bronxpad]

The Warrior Forum just changed there membership from free to paid. They have do follow attributes but I was wondering what peoples take is on joining them for both learning and seo purposes?

You can learn a lot.

But what you'll learn is probably a lot different from what you'll hear on SEOMoz.

I wouldn't want to say that one is right and one is wrong but right now I wouldn't pay for access to Warrior Forums.

Hi Joel,

I used to spend a ton of time on the Warrior forum.  Every once in a while there is a worthwhile discussion, but mostly people are looking to sell their products.  When I first became interested in SEO, I even bought a few of their guides.  And while they were not completely useless, most of them didn't tell me anything that I could not have learned for free on a blog.

I personally would not pay for being a member of the Warrior Forum.  In the Post-Penguin world, many of the tactics expoused there are not only useless, but can be detrimental to the health of your websites.  Maybe I am painting with too broad a brush, but there it is.

I completely agree with Ben.

You can find a lot of useful info on the Warrior forums and there are some really good SEO's on there but you often have to wade through a lot of misleading information to get to the real pearls of wisdom. I probably wouldn't pay for acces to it either.

SEOmoz FTW!

Like others have said, you have to wade through a lot of noise to find the nuggets of good content on the Warrior Forum.  However, the paid forum has a better S/N ratio than the free forum, and it's a fairly inexpensive one-time fee to join, so I think it's a pretty good deal.  I am personally a member.

Skip it.

You feel like taking a shower after spending time on this site.

Seems to be mostly a bunch of small-time sleazebags trying to con each other into spending a few bucks of marketing guides that provide...

Secret Tips!

Get Rick Quick Schemes !

There may be a little worthwhile info on the site, but it's a very bad neighborhood, IMHO.

Agreed with everyone above. I started there as well and got fed up with the "overnight results, push-button easy!".

There are some smart people with good stuff on there, but too much to wade through to find it.

Your time is much better spent on SEOmoz, in my opinion
