    I just gain profile backlinks then do some blog commenting using the profile backlinks as the URL.

    It depends on various factors:

    1. The blog or forum itself
    2. The nature - Dofollow or nofollow
    3. The "comment" for some attraction by people.

    Overall, commenting on dofollow blogs could be good..

    cheers

    If you want traffic, in my experience both blog commenting and forum posting can work well, provided you pick the blogs/forums well. If you want to go up in the SERP, it's much easier to get dofollow backlinks from forums, so I would go for this option.

    Diversity is key for me, but if I HAD to choose it would be blog commenting, both dofollow and nofollow links.

    I'd say forum posting is more effective than blog commenting... you're not even sure if your comment will be approved easily on a blog or the blog owner will delete the post itself if you did comment on it, you've just wasted that time. Unlike in forum posting, do a quality post and have a signature and its there, unless the whole forum itself will be taken down. But dont ignore the blog commenting strategy but dont focus on it too much.

    Both are good ways to build backlinks though. Forum posting allows you to talk to others, get opinions, and advertise your site in your signature. If people like what you're saying, then they'll check out whatever sites are being linked in your signature.

    Blog Commenting is more useful than Forum Posting because it gives your pure objective of one-way link within short period of time where forum posting requires active presence along formidable reputation which requires more time to develop than blog commenting

    They're both helpful in generation of backlinks but if I were to ask I rather go for forum posting.

    Do both as everyone know link diversity is better than single source.

    Find high PR blog to comment - It will give you SEO benefit.
    Find popular forum to posting - It will give you instant traffic

    Forums posting is something better than comments posting. forum links are sure dofollow but the blogger can change the link from dofollow to nofollow or may be removed them.
