The most easy back links to get for your site is from a web forum.There are thousands of forums out there to chose from.Once you have chosen a forum that is related to your site , register with those forums and start participating in the forum by giving useful suggestions and sharing your thoughts with others.Do not spam the forum by posting single sentence posts like the ones shown below:
-Yes you are right
-I agree with you
-Well done !
Some forums consider this as spamming and if the are very strict in moderation then you might be kicked and banned from the forum.So use some common sense and only post when you have something useful to share.This will also enhance your reputation on forums. Now comes the part of building back links for your site through those forums.Most of the forums allow its members to use signature links which is attached to each post that is on the forum .Signature link might look something like the one shown in the picture below.
You can use any format that meet your needs and forum signature guidelines.As long as the link is not broken and points to your desired web page , it is fine and will count as back link.The greatest advantages of forums is that if it has many active members and there are lots of threads posted each day then those pages ( containing posts along with all the links ) gets indexed very quickly by search engines.These signature links add to your page rank and you will notice the effect of these back links.If you are lucky or I can say smart then you will quickly reply to threads that might contain very useful information for example threads about top 100 article directories.The advantage of replying to threads like this is that people naturally link to pages such as this one as they find it useful and informative for sharing with others.The more people link to the thread , the more back links that thread page gets and this will eventually increase the page rank of that thread.If your post containing your signature link is on the thread page then you definitely get credited from getting backlink from web page that has a high page rank .
