Question about profile links..

3 replies
If you can not see profile link after you create it unless you are registered to that site will you still get credit for the link? In other words, when I try to browse to a profile that I created, it asks for me to login first. Will I still get backlink credit?

    Yea...like if you create a profile at a forum, and put your home page url in the edit profile section. They still get counted.

    I didn't think so at first either, until my sites started crawling up the SE. But what I like to do after I've saved the changes in that section.

    Is click on my name to bring me to the home page section of my profile to make sure it's hyperlinked and then I ping the url of that page.

    No, those profiles are useless. Some people may claim that some of them are useful buy 99% of such profile links which are behind login screen have no use. One or two in a 1000 may allow google bot to see them but just just ignore them they are very few.

    Only Publicly viewable (and do follow) Backlinks are useful - This equation is easy and simple

    NOT TRUE. These links still get indexed by the spiders.
