This is a somewhat comprehensive list of Dofollow forums.
If you know of any Do Follow forums that are missing from this list, feel free to add them in the comments and I may eventually get around to adding them to the list.
Looking for the dofollow forums search engine instead?
This is a Search-Engine for finding dofollow blogs. Dofollow blogs do not have any rel=”nofollow” tag on the links, thus they give you a valid backlink. Those backlinks are very important for SEO.
How to use the dofollow Search engine?
Enter a keyword and the search engine will find niche related blogs which dofollow. This is extremely good for link-building, especially because the blogs will be niche related.
Click on the results and write a comment on the blogs. If the author will approve your comment then you got a valid backlink which will increase your backlinks.
Make sure that you do not use spammy keywords as names, as most bloggers usually just delete those. Your name would be enough, of course, a keyword is better, but the name is sufficient.
Cbox Links - CBox; a Tagboard software that bloggers and website owners can add to their website. It works much like the Wordpress comments part of the wordpress script only its a simple shoutbox type script that you can throw a few links onto.
Google query to find an updated list of sites running this vulnerable software: allintext:[get a cbox]
Tagbox Linkdropping - Another like the Cbox is Tagbox it works the exact same way. Powered by Tagbox
Digging - Digging the same as any network like such brings an incredible amount of backlinks and gets the buzz around fast. You can use things like Piqq, which is a digg exchange.
Commenthunt - Most of you already know this but commenthunt searches blogs without
nofollow tags its a search engine type thing you can search for relevent blogs the url is http://www.commenthunt.com
Oggix.com - heres another shoutbox type way of backlinks Check This Query and get dumping links.
Digitalpoint CO-Op Network - Another one that can work in some cases.
Digitalpoint developed a mass link exchange program called the DP Co-op Advertising Network (aff). After signing up, you then add 3-5 links on every one of your pages, and this earns you more linking power (coop weight). The more weight you have, the more links to your site you receive from other members in the coop. You can choose up to 15 anchor texts and there are over 30,000,000 available links in the network today. Sites have been using it to rank #1 for “Debt” “credit cards” “bankruptcy” and “loans.” Such a simple method is allowing them to outrank massive authority sites like Wikipedia, but the main concern is how long will this gravy train last and when will Google do something about it?
Google staff already know about the network, but have not yet done anything to prevent
people from quickly ranking for popular terms. Just want to clarify that many people would NOT recommend this technique to anyone that is going to be doing a long term link building campaign for their blogs, but some would recommend it for “made for adsense” sites, and even blackhat/greyhat temporary high profit earning sites.
Article Submission - If you have a product thats going to be released or a new site, its best to get the word around fast, using something like Article Equaliser or something that mass submits to a ton of article directories, this builds fast backlinks but sometimes takes time to get approved, and its best not using spammy type articles but interesting ones work better. And you'll find that a lot of other sites scrape article sites for there own content. Giving even more backlinks.
Using Software - You can also use software like Internet Business Promoter, version 8, because it scans the engines for you, and gets links using keywords, to semi-automatically fill link submission forms to niche related directories. It works well and although is a slow process works perfectly.
