Forum backlinks or blog comments , which is better for SEO rankings?

Always better forums links

 

well decision you made. do them both very carefully and effectively. be sure that your posts are not sent to spam. i think keyword ranking is good. because if your keywords are strong then you will get traffic automatically.

 

I prefer forum posting, as forum posting will accumulate and it increase my reputation. Lately comment on blog usually position at bottom page, high chances to ignore by reader

 

Honestly it would depend on the individual sites, and which kind of threads you post to.

 

Backlink is important for search engine

 

You got a lot of advice about SEO, so I wanted to say something about your traffic.

Posting on forums is the most immediate way to get traffic to your website. You can literally sign up for an account, put some posts on various threads and you could have traffic coming to your website an hour later. Of course, there's a smart way to do this and a less smart way...

First of all, there are a lot more forums than this one in Internet Marketing (just Google 'em!). So diversify if you're looking to increase your traffic with forum posting. Then spend some time each day posting on various threads. It won't take you too long and the more posts you have, the more credible you will be to others on the forum. Plus you're establishing yourself in that forum's community.

Don't be afraid to start your own threads. If you do, your post is always the first one seen in the thread (not lost when people scroll through pages). Just play fair. Don't bump a lot or spam. Just being active in the forum will give you that traffic!

Good luck!

 

It doesn't so much as depend on the platform be it a forum or a blog, but it depends if the backlink are do-follow and from an authority site

 

Forum & Blog commenting both are best. Comment on relevant blogs and help in forum by answering them.

 

I believe, both points are very important....

 

forum backlinks are very useful espscially when you choose the niche as your web site niche

 

In my personal experience blog commenting is better in SEO, because it is faster and more versatile and you don't have obey sometimes very rigid rules of forums. Nofollow and dofollow tags are easy to find and personally don't think nofolow is no good, because I have seen my blog posts in nofollow sections with PR0 ranked much better than other posts without any link and because Google tends to find natural spread of links (if only dofollow links point to your site, it won't look natural). Another issue is number of OBLs (links pointing out of the sites) which is much much higher from forums than blogs and I also found a lot of forums with default nofollow tags on links. Some of my most powerful links are from blogs or more blog than forum related sites. Forum links are on the other side much more effective to drive direct traffic. Unfortunatelly those kind of links don't generate constant traffic...

 

forum posting does not require an admin approval if you are an established user. I think its much easier but both are great.

 

It depends on the PR of the relevant site, but assuming equal stats for both I would say that forum backlinks are better than blogcomments, especially when considering that you can change the keywords in your signature or in your post to keep up with demand or whatever.

 

You have to do forum posting regularly, so in that you will be get more back links, it will be more benefit for you.

 

what is meant by blog commenting. Does it mean adding your webpage address in a comment on blog? Is buying backlinks ok for SEO?

 

As per my experience forum is much better than blog comments because many blogs are nofollow and by forum we can get relevant backlinks and traffic. Forum drives drirect traffic to our sites from other sites. And thats why forum is much better than blog comments.

 

It used to be easier to find do follow blogs than it is today. If you find one make a worthy comment and hope your link sticks. Forum posting is a very old school way of getting a backlink that google still loves today. Back in the day before google all you had were forums or directories or word of mouth to find your way around the net. That is why forum posting is still good today.

 

Most forums and blogs are no follow these days to avoid spamming, so one is no better than the other. What is more important is that the blogs and forums you're participating in are relevant or related to your website.

 

Why does it have to be one or the other? Use both!

 

Forum back-links are good for seo ranking.
