No Follow links thru Forums - Is it true?

    What is the point putting signature link and do the postings on forums when these back links all have no follows, I believe?.

    Maybe someone will click on your link and visit your site :)

    DP gives you everything you need, as long as you stick to reasonable terms.
    And it doesn't block your links from being picked up by search engines if that's what you are looking for.

    Also, a lot of the forums that do have it remove it after 50 posts or so. They just want to make sure you're not a spammer.

    Most of the ones I belong to don't block them. I've seen a few that changed back after they did because the amount of participation dropped off.
