    Hi Everyone!

    While surfing and reading few blogs on SEO, i just got to know that from a single forum posting i can create more than one backlink from same forum. Is It True e.g Like 25 forum post count as 25 backlink ???

    Thanks.

    Yes you are right. But, the reply should be on new threads. Then only it will be counted as new link.

    Yes, but multiple links from just one single domain tends to be quite useless. Well, maybe not useless in total sense of the word, but there's no much use of having tons of link from just one domain. Diversity is the key.

    Usually they're going to be nofollow links but they still have some worth.

    Google recently updated their unusual link practices guide and in it they mentioned that bulk forum backlinks may be flagged by their algorithm.

    This should not be surpassing, Bulk forum links are some of the most unnatural links around, which is what Google is targeting. This doesn't mean that one forum linking to your site will penalize you, but when thousands of profile links and other forum links surrounded by rich keywords pop up overnight, it should set off some red flags. There are some rare circumstances where this would actually occur(ex: viral content), and Google does like this, but there are also numerous other markers which would accompany the forum links such as social media content, likes, retweets, Plus 1's etc. and all of this Google is looking at. Besides bulk forum links are low authority anyway. Google is looking for high DA links with original content.

    Forum posting must be used to represent a brand, to create brand awareness, showing the credibility of the brand by answering the user queries and helping them out. Forums must be used to build relationships with the users and not for the sole purpose of getting links. Brand citations on relevant sources are also an extremely important ranking factor in search engine rankings.

    Making Brand and Backlink goes hand in hand. As much as you participate more beneficial for site ranking and brand image. But be genuine participate in forum, show your concern about certain topics, and share your knowledge and get backlink.

    We still have many customers who take advantage of our forum post backlink services and they are still achieving great results after the Penguin 2.0 update by Google.

    Multiple links should not be come from one domain and if you want to take backlink from forum then you always take contextual backlink.

    well , forums are a great source of information , and indexed easily in search engines due to their new unique and fresh content .
    you can create a new link in each post you made at any forum and this link can be from signature or direct link.

    Yes, but as others have said, multiple backlinks from one domain is bad, plus a lot of forum links are no follow.

    What you can do is 25 links on 25 different forums.

    hi, Th3Coding,
    you know forums are also social networks for specific groups(categories).if you creates hundreds of links within one forum ,google will treat it as single link.
    what you need to do is get as much links as you can from different domains.
