I found out that I have made more than 1000 posts in the forum which is absolutely different niche(those posts are in the forum about Android but my website is about Leadership Business) I filled a box with the website url a week ago and now I am receiving dofollow backlinks from this forum. Will I be banned if those backlinks are from the forum which is different niche

    Yes!!!!!

    You should do that. Its will cause you lots of problems like high bounce rate and Google penalty.

    Ignore the first response to your post from anoopnain. He clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.

    That link won't hurt your site in any way. In fact, it's actually helping your site because it passes PR to your site in spite of the fact that it isn't relevant. Ideally, you should aim to get backlinks from relevant sites but don't reject a link or pass on an opportunity to get one just because it is irrelevant, so far as it is not from a spammy source.

      Thanks for the insight. I had the same question as I post in Warrior Forum often but one of the websites in my signature is in the health niche.

    if you get a links from a forum and get link from 1000s of forum is different. In your case it won't affect your site, as your post is natural. But don't post in multiple unrelated forum.

      Thank you! Those posts were when I was helping people with their Android phones, no spammy posts. So it looks like that the time I spent with writing posts, will help my blog now.

    And I think if you think signature link for seo purpose don't do that. Maybe for traffic but I am not sure that because it is unrelated forum
