    Profile backlinks point to blog commenting pages.

    It's really effective because...

    Ever watch "power rangers"? Separate, their robots are useless; but when they attach them together - they have a BAMF machine.

    The same principle applies here

      lol.. don't know if that's the most precise explanation I've ever heard but I guess the power rangers part is true. God I miss that show.

      Indexing backlinks typically means making backlinks to the backlinks that are pointing to your own site. Usually you'd have the more valuable backlinks such as those from articles and blogs as tier 1 (pointing directly at your site) and having less valuable links such as profile, signaute, and social bookmarking pointing to them to help index and boost those links.

      I'm not entirely sure but I believe that only if a link is indexed will it provide link value so if they're not indexed they are essentially worthless in terms of link building.
