So I have a general backlinking question.. I read about people "building" back links but im not sure if im right in a certain thinking. Below in my sig there will be 2 links to my websites. Just for posting this thread or replying to another post somewhere else in this form, since my sig will be there wiht my link will that count as "building" 1 link per time my sig shows up OR does "building" a link refer to when someone click on my link in the sig thus being redirected to my pages. please advise, thank you.
I don't think it will count as "building" 1 link per time the sig shows up,but it can add the chances on bringing traffics to your site.
Clicking on the link has nothing to do with building backlinks. It is a result of having built the link. Else all you would have to do is build 1 link of each different type and run traffic through it. Dan
Once you have a sig in a forum, it does not mean that every post you make already counts as back link. It depends actually on when will be your post or sig be crawled or seen by crawlers and til then will you be able to know if that would become a backlink for your website.
