@chocs,
What do you mean by dofollow will make pageranks down. It is dofollow links only that increase your pagerank.

Thanks for this….

Thanks for great information……………..
That video is really informative! By the way why do we care about backlinks just for PR improvement? Anyway, even if your PR is low you can get traffic if you update your blog/website regularly with unique content. Moreover, backlinks would be more useful when they drive actual visitors! I receive a great deal of traffic by leaving comments+links on blogs/sites with popular newsletters like ask-leo.
Mat is very clever…. he not only told us how to do SEO but infact got a whole lot of backlinks by creating this video which has been imbeded here..
Very Impressive Work by Mat
I hope this will help me in building some quick links…Because this is main work behind any successful blog.
This is Cool! white hat SEO is the best!

A good press release could be a good way to launch new products online.

Perhaps forums are better way than social media in terms of quality of backlinks for PR. But social media helps in driving traffic.
Agree. Social media was a great feature for this trick
Good ways to increase backlinks. Video feature is not possible for all to create but it is one of the best way to get backlink and traffic.
Forum posting is best way to build backlinks and generate some traffic.
Thanks for providing nice list of dofollow forums. I really found your posts very informative but always take something useful from it. thanks.
Excellent post.. very helpful. I have not done much forum posting.. but I think I will start now. Thanks again!!
posting your website ad in free classifieds ads website is also a good idea
Glad to see that someone is actually preaching white hat link building tactics as opposed to black hat link building blasts. Those are a joke.
Whitehat is the way to go!
