Getting Backlinks from Online Forums?

Some SEO gurus advise us to participate in relevant forums to generate backlinks -- the ones in our signature files.

Is there anybody out there with a service to research forums and determine which ones are relevant to your niche, AND have their posts indexed by Google?

If I am a member of a Yahoo! or Google group, how do I determine whether the posts are indexed?

Thanks in advance for any tips you can provide!

  • why do you need a service to do this?

    simply goto google and type:

    intitle:forum nichetype

    ie.. for a programming forum you would type:

    intitle:forum programming

    and you have your list of forums to use

    • Yeah except you have to filter out the forums that don't have signature or profile links enabled. Based on platform you try to use, ratio of actually worthy forums to "link disabled" forums can be quite small. Kinda the reason why we launched SEOBDB for public

    sorry don't have 15 posts so can post links
  • Curses! You gave away the goldmine! At least one of 'em.

    Just goes to show that finding this stuff is easier then one would think.

    Now no more giving away the ridiculously easy and obvious ways to find lots and lots of backlinks.
  • just google for them by yourself man! do choose those dofollow forums which help more in giving backlinks.
