David Kutcher: Yea... I would look for a better content/dissemination strategy than trolling forums
Marilyn Moran: Only use targeted forums if you can add genuine value to it; if you're there simply for backlinks, you'll get sniffed out pretty quickly.
D Moran: Ok that's what I thought ... Thanks for the clarification..
Lori Eldridge: What you need is a balance in the type of links you focus on: some blogs, some forums, some websites, some relevant directories, and social activity. Use mostly your business name for anchor text (or generic text like your name or a nickname) and change the description often.
