Obtaining Links from Forums?
-
How good is a link from a forum? Do you guys know of any forums in the shopping, jewelry, wedding, or fashion industry that accepts links within their signature or within the post?
I know some forums are very strict about this and others allow you to add your link as an incentive to post on their forums.
Generally, how effective is this in your opinion and any good recommendations of quality forums?

I would agree with the above as you can really get some good buyer orientated traffic. This tool can help you find forums related to your keywords = http://www.soloseo.com/tools/

I agree. Think of those forums as part of the overall strategy and not look at them as just providing link value. Provide value to the user's of that forum/community and then you get both the visibility/brand awareness/citations as well as the SEO value.

Very good for traffic if you can find excellent forums to link to in your industry. If you can add valuable content to the forum I would Highly recommend it. I believe it should be part of a well diversified SEO strategy.

Inbound link is follow link but we put no follow link back - is it beneficial for rankings?
Dear Moz Community, We are operating in a niche market, where there are not so many content marketing options. What we are left with are link exchanging with relevant sites that are on the same topic but to not directly compete with us. Now we know that if we link back to site A and site a links back to us - for google this is not a very good link. But, some of the sites we are exchanging links with, do not know the term follow vs no follow links. My question - if your link is to site A is a no follow link but they give us a follow link - does it mean thats a better option than a follow vs follow. Thanks for help!
