    Exactly.. do both and get varied type of links. Forum posts will also get you some targeted traffic if you use good title. Blog commenting can get you some offer for guest posting and top commentator links many times.

    They are both effective forms of link building you should try to combine different
    methods of link building to get great results.

    That's a great answer.

    There are so many threads where people are asking which method is better.

    Link building is about many different methods, the more diverse the better.

    IMO.., Blog Posting is the most effective with relevant content surrounding it.. and when Blog Commenting & Forum Posting is compared then I prefer Forum Posting as Blog comments carry no follow and has less value in some engines..

    I believe that you should do both. I personaly started with blog posting, but now I am doing also forum posting. Both ways are very efficient.

    If you find a forum on relevant topic it can be more effective because of the following reasons:
    1. You can post there much more times in comparison to blog posting as there are more pages. So, you save time as you don't need to find more blogs...
    2. In blogs comments are more often moderated and you have no guarantee that your posts will be approved. In forums moderators are not the authors and different opinions sharing is welcome. So, it's easier to make your post publish....

    But at the same time it's good to have links from as many sites as possible. So, for sure you need to do both!

    I will give more marks to forum posting instead of blog commenting. Forum posting is much wider concept and its very rare chances that these will be "no follow" in future, where as I have seen many blog owners transfer their do follow blogs to No follow once they start getting spam comments.

    So first of all concentrate on forum posting and after that blog comments.

    But yeah I do agree that in blog comments you get extra juice of link building.

    Both work, although I tend to prefer blog commenting to forum posting. It's a balance of time and benefit; forums take more time, but the links are generally worth more while blogs are faster but generally less beneficial.
