Hi there, Quick question, after a long research about google/yahoo rank I found out that If you have a forum on your site it helps with rank because of the text. Now if I register at a site like (only an example) www.forozilla.com a service that provides free forums. Would that help or do I have to install it my self on my own site? If I put google adsense (ads) on my site would that help with ranking as well? Any help, comments, advice would be appreciated. Thank You
I think you don't need to install it yourself if it's a free service. Adsense has nothing to do with SERP's.
AdSense is just a earning way, it does not have any touch with SEO or SERPs, if you want traffic then you have an option of adwords, not the adsense
if you have a forum with lots of members making lots of posts (user generated content) this might help your ranking/SERPS over time because of the constant new, unique content that they are generating.. but it wont help the rest of your site per-se, and will only get you search-engine hits to the forum areas. If you have adsense in those forum areas, then this could be a good thing..
I've read at a few places that Adsense Ads on a new site help it get out of the sandbox, and might help in getting the pages spidered and indexed quickly. But I hevent tried it to verify it. About having a forum, you should install it yourself on your server.
