Forums and Guest Books

Forums and Guest Books:

The internet contains millions of forums and guest books all ripe for the picking. While most forums are heavily moderated (at least the active ones), that still leaves you with thousands in which you can drop links where no one will likely notice or even care. We're talking about abandoned forums, old guest books, etc. Now, you can get links dropped on active forums as well, but it takes some more creativity. Putting up a post related to the topic on the forum and dropping your link In the BB code for a smiley for example. Software packages like Xrumer made this a VERY popular way to gather back links. So much so that most forums have methods in place to detect and reject these types of links. Some people still use them and are still quite successful. The key here is volume. Submit enough links and you are bound to find some gold.
