Forums links and seo-juice

Why forums do not pass so much pagerank ?


People say that backlinks from inside forums pages do not pass pagerank and "seo-juice" but links from outside the forums pass.


Well ... I think one reason can be the link age from forums.


Let's say we have a forum like


http://forums.softgroups.com


then we have a category like


http://forums.softgroups.com/seo

then the first 20 topics will be on
http://forums.softgroups.com/seo
and the next 20 , will be at:
http://forums.softgroups.com/seo/page2.php
now the problem is that ...

when people post 20 new pages, the
http://forums.softgroups.com/seo/page2.php will be
http://forums.softgroups.com/seo/page3.php

and this is just like changing content all over the page, so threads will never get real seo because they are just changed a lot?!

 

Nice post, good info

 

yaa you are absolutely right,
I also think, that will be the main reason

 

It doesn't pass my juice to me, but passes ALOT of traffic as in real visitors, and i'm happy with that

 

Thanks for the good post.

 

Good points there, but I think forums couldn't give much. In more technical factor forums could be a link farm for all different and unrelated links on sigs.

 

how about making a forum from smf? http://forumerchant.pinoy2.com/index.php/board,2.0.html
The boards will be counting like


/index.php/board,2.0.html
/index.php/board,4.0.html
/index.php/board,5.0.html

i see if

/v2/forums.php?action=viewtpc&susi=&tid=57684&type=send

get good easily? why such????

 

reallly good post.

 

yep...that's right! Just use them to market your site...and also,even if you have inner links from popular forums, it helps google to crawl your site more fast.

 

As long as the message URLs are static, you will get all the SEO juices.

 

Hello mate, Nice point cached.

 

So you mean, if it is a long URL, there is no SEO juice?

 

This makes sense but forum sigs pass on real visitors which for me means a lot more.

 

think about:
- traffic
- relevancy
- age links
- authority

 

Hello Buddy,
Finicky point cached.........

 

Google loves "Static Page" it means anything that comes up with .html as file extention

Google hates "Dynamic Page" it means any page that contains wild cards

 

Yeah guy, i think i need to be the first one out here to develop a nice seo forum , lol

 

Thanks for the good post.

 

Forum links pass pr as long as they aren't no follow. But I beleive that signature links are given less weight in the ranking algorithm.

 

its really good information
thanks
