Hello Digital Point, Let me tell you that i'm new here and i own a blogging tips blog, so i thought the best way to promote my blog is through forum marketing. I needed to know if we are allowed to self promote in our own threads. I'm aware of using signatures below posts, by self promoting i mean i start a thread called 'getting backlinks to your blog' and i just give a summary of my post on 'getting backlinks to your blog' and then give a link to my blog saying continue reading. Is this possible or will i get banned for it. Please let me know. Vishal Sanjay
