Good start, — lists like yours are useful for finding communities, but two big changes since 2010 matter for anyone trying to “improve Google PageRank” with forum links. The public Toolbar PageRank was retired years ago, so you can’t track a toolbar PR boost the way people did in 2010. Also, Google changed how it treats link attributes in 2019: rel="nofollow", rel="sponsored" and rel="ugc" are now processed as hints rather than absolute blocks. Search Engine Journal on Toolbar PageRank retirement — [Google: Evolving "nofollow" (Webmaster Central)]. (searchenginejournal.com)

What that means in practice: many forums mark user links as UGC/nofollow (or treat them as such), so signature/profile links rarely deliver reliable ranking credit. Use forums for targeted referral traffic, community authority and trust signals (EEAT) rather than as a primary link-building engine. If you need to check a forum’s link behavior, inspect the link HTML (right‑click → Inspect) and look for a rel value. See Google’s guidance on qualifying outbound links for the correct rel usage. (developers.google.com)

Don’t treat “dofollow forum lists” as a short cut. Google’s spam fighting (SpamBrain and recent link‑spam updates) neutralises manipulative link schemes and can nullify bulk, low‑quality links; buying or mass‑seeding signature links is risky. Good point, — authority/context matters more than whether a link is labeled dofollow — and is right to warn against relying mainly on forums. (developers.google.com)

Practical checklist

  • Treat forums as traffic/community channels, not PageRank machines.
  • Contribute valuable, on‑topic posts first; add a link only when it genuinely helps.
  • Prefer contextual in‑thread links over generic profile/signature links.
  • Check and respect rel attributes (use rel="ugc" for user posts if you control the platform).
  • Vary anchor text and monitor referral traffic in Analytics/Search Console.
  • Avoid bulk posting, paid link schemes, or automated submissions — those are the things updates target.

Short, sustainable forum participation + solid content and diverse, editorial backlinks beats chasing dofollow signature lists. (developers.google.com)

Thanks for sharing buddy. :)

Have you a list of singnature acceptabe forum list

Yes, forums would be great places for these kind of think, because almost all forums are dofollow.

Hi,

Thanks for your sharing.

In my own experiences, only those dofollow threads(but not forums) with PR would have positive impacts on the linked pages or sites.

I would like to recommend updating our site contents regularly using niche relative contents plus building dofollow backlinks via channels like article submission, blog commenting.

all the best,

I have used some of these websites ... these froums are very nice :)

Thanks for sharing

Great list of forums but do not rely mainly on forums.. There are also many other off page SEO activities which can boost up your ranking in search engines!
