Backlinks and posting in forums.

How true is it that if you use links to your website as a signature in a forum, it will serve as backlinks to your website. If you use two links as your signature, by the time you have 150 posts, you already have 300 backlinks to your site. How true is this?

Forum Posting is always worth your effort and gives you some Good inbound links but Back links from unique ip's play major roll and back links which came from less number of out bond links (with High PR Sites) which worth for you more then normal back links.

WEll it count's but not like that 2 links x number of posts

First of all you might want to edit your signature.. you forgot the </a> to close it.. You could try the bbcode by the way.

Regarding your question, well I have no proof but I am very sure that is so not true. I mean if it is don't you think 99% of people who are so into backlinks would be doing that. You won't get too much link juice on a signature by the way. But I agree it still helps. But personally I do forum posting for promoting my site, interact and learn more from others in mind and not getting backlinks. If you really are serious on getting quality backlinks, blog commenting is even better. Just be sure that its from a relevant site to yours and that you don't just make stupid comments. Read the article and post a proper and useful comment, for the owner not to consider of deleting your post.
