Offsite SEO: Forum Commenting

Here is another offsite search engine optimization (SEO) to do.

Forum Commenting

It is similar to Blog Commenting, another effective and easy to implement.

There are fewer forums, but sometimes, you can get a forum on a well-established website.  What this means to you is that you MIGHT be able to make a backlink to your site from a somewhat high-ranking keyword related website.

There is one difference between Blogs and Forums.

Offsite SEO: Blog Commenting

There are two names to the Offsite SEO game:

1. Generate Traffic
2. Create Backlinks

Now, "Generate Traffic" could be an immediate response, or it could be a slow cooking approach with a lot of branding.

The main thing, though, is creating backlinks.

We can use OTHER people's blogs to create backlinks or generate traffic to our site.  We can simply leave comments on their blogs.

Careful!  There is a right way and a wrong way to do this!

Should we just post comments, anywhere?

Offsite SEO Strategies-Summary

In an earlier post, "Onsite SEO vs. Offsite SEO (Search Engine Optimization)," there are two main ways to make your site more likely to be found on the free side (organic search results) on a search engine: Onsite SEO and Offsite SEO.

To quickly remind you...

• Onsite SEO is when you adjust YOUR website to make it easier for people to find you.
• Offisite SEO is when you leave your site to attract people to your site.

This post will focus on Offsite SEO.
