Most discussion forums allow you to use a signature or a bio where you can include backlinks to your
website. These links will show up on your profile, just make sure profiles are viewable by guests to

be sure search engines can see them. With this method, you are not just looking for sites related to
your niche, the key is to find as many high page rank forums as possible and sign up to every one,
add a link to your signature (or Bio if that's what shows on the profiles), and then NEVER post on the

site! By not posting on the forum, no one ever sees your link, so you never have to worry about
being banned, but you still get a free link to your site on a related webpage. This is very effective

Become an active member of the community and post good content on a regular basis. Your

signature link will be seen by many of the forums users, some of which will click the link sending
traffic right to your website. In addition, search engines will see the link, which will in turn boost
your search engine rankings even more. It might be wise to keep the link out of your signature for a
few weeks, until you've had time to introduce yourself and make some quality posts. Fill out your

profile and use a picture of yourself as your avatar to show them you are interested in being an
active member of their community.

Building backlinks can be a tedious process, but there are ways to speed things up. This technique
works very well for building forum profile backlinks. The key is to focus on one platform at a time.
Use some of the search phrases in the “Footprints” section to develop a list of forums using the

same type of software, for this example I'll use ExpressionEngine forums.

The Autofill Forms plugin for Mozilla Firefox allows you to create profiles of information that can
then “autofill forms” with a single click of the mouse. This can save you a TON of time when
building forum backlinks!!! You can enter in all the information you will need to register on forums,
