Forum Back Links Question

    Lets take DP for example, a Webmaster forum.

    If I had Four Webmaster Niche Websites, and added all Four to my Signature. Everytime I make a post, would each post be One Back Link for all four Websites?

    Thanks,
    BlueEew.

    I think yes.. each post is counted as backlinks.. so the more post you made the more backlinks you will receive..

    but if everyone has their links on the sig than some treads might contain even 100 links so ther eis not much value.

    Yes, each post with your signature is counted as a backlink to your site.
    As linkexchange stated in above, if there are lots of posts on a thread, the value of your signature link will be reduced compare to some threads with very less posts.

    Each one counts as a backlink, but I don't think Google gives you link juice for every single one.

    It is correct. Links in your signature count as backlinks. And each time you make a post you create a new backlink for you site. DP has another advantage: The DP posts rank very high in Google sometimes. That means if you make good post, it will show up in Google give your signature additional exposure.

    Each post count as a backlink, but it is better to have backlinks from different sites.

    Yes it will be of not much value, as all the threads and posts of forums generally have no PR.

    I agree. It helps to have backlinks on threads with only a few outbound links. Also, join other forums, contribute, learn, and build links.

    Every link in your sig should count as a separate backlink. So in one post if you make four backlinks in the sig then for each post you are getting four backlinks back to one or more of your sites. I dont believe in 'link juice dilutes if more number of outgoing links per page' etc. story. that is blanket nonsense. Cant google differentiate between a forum page that is still good quality content from a page that is only there to link to other page (link farm)? If it cant, then there is no point in all those patents getting registered about how to calculate page rank and how to provide 'smooth user experience' while searching.
