How to choose a good forum to post external links to?
To do a good job in SEO, external links are very important, especially for Google optimization. For us small webmasters, we don’t have the resources or the money to do external links, and the forum is the best place for us to do external links. Below, Xiao Xu analyzes how to choose a good forum.
1. How to find forums, you can start from the following aspects: 1. Just search on Baidu, and you can find hundreds of forums recommended by old webmasters. 2. Use the external link query tool to analyze the external links of competitors. If you see the BBS, save it first. Of course, if you have time, it is best to do your own DOMIS and look for them one by one. 3. Go to major forums and look at their friendly links (such as A5, you can find many other webmaster forums). The advantage of this method is that it is convenient to find similar forums, and the forums you find are of similar quality compared to this forum, which means they are pretty good.
2. Select a forum. Make a preliminary sorting of the collected forums and conduct a comprehensive query on this forum. You can see their inclusion today, inclusion in a week, inclusion in January and all inclusion. Then you enter their forum and take a look at the status of their forum, see how many posts they make in a day, compare it with today's inclusion rate, and see if the inclusion rate is high. It is recommended that forums with an inclusion rate greater than 50% be retained. Comparing the collection in one month with the total collection, you can see how long the average collection of articles in this forum takes (for example, 40,000 collections per month and 60,000 total collections, you can analyze that the articles are collected for about 1.5 months). It is generally recommended to be close to 2 months or more. Forums are reserved. Finally, let’s analyze the forum posts. First, check whether the forum articles can have links and whether the signature can use the Discuz! code. As long as you have one of these two things, it will be fine (some need to reach a certain level before you can use the signature, that’s fine too) )
3. Then register and test the forum. It is recommended that each forum account has the same account. It is easy to remember and will be faster to log in and post in the future. Secondly, it is best to use English as the user name, so that it is easy for moderators of some strict forums to remember. you. After registering, first check the user groups and permissions. Let’s take a look at the points acquisition and points levels. It's best to use your signature when you register. If there are any level restrictions, analyze it and roughly what kind of job you need to be in before you can use it. If the conditions are too harsh, give up.
4. Post articles on organized and registered forums, preferably in relevant sections. Of course, in order to save time, you can post the same article in all forums (most forums have sections dedicated to spamming or advertising. If some forums have stricter conditions, just find separate articles and post them in sections suitable for their forums)
5. Conduct a post-mortem analysis of each article posted, record which forum has the highest inclusion rate and which section has been included for the longest time (this will take a long time to find out), and post in those sections in the future.
As for judging the quality of the forum (look at the forum's PR, EX ranking, relevance... these webmasters know that I won't talk about it). Let me just say a few things that few people usually talk about. 1. It is better for the forum to be deserted than lively (I mean under other conditions being equal). Take A5 as an example. It is too lively. Once you post a post, there will be dozens of replies. This increases the number of external links to the article and leads to poor quality. decline. 2. Remember to always upvote your own posts, especially on unpopular forums, because over time, they may not be included. If you like it more, if you add something new, maybe yours will be included again.
At present, Xiao Xu can only think of so much. I will learn more about it in the future and share it with you.
