Blog or Forum for SEO and Google Traffic

Hi

I am developing a new project (website) where I will be posting some 5 short articles per week.

I am interested in developing a community around it, so I thought why not use SMF forum software instead of wordpress and post articles (which are very short) as threads.

Before going forward with this, I want to ask will this have any effect on google traffic?

 

I would initially go with posting 5 articles per week on the blog and try to get traffic by all means.

Launching the community forum is a good idea when there is decent traffic. Without traffic it would be difficult to maintain activity in the forum.

 

I think community is good idea.

 

Both are very useful. If your going to review the standard link building. You'll see that these two are top suggestions.

 

You need traffic irregardless of what your trying to do online.

 

Or you can use the link building, well giv good traffic..

 

Uoften can input your keywords in blog and it helps you to get good pr.
forums, are helped you to get traffic, I think these two you can do together. But it's up to you.
