Hi Alex,

Content is considered to be the most important aspect while doing any of the above methods. Both are useful, you can start with Forum Posting in related niche & help other members with valuable responses. Actively participate in discussions going through, contribute your best towards, you can make use of backlinks in the Signature following the Forum guidelines.

Social Bookmarking is an effective approach towards page indexing, caching and more traffic. It also helps towards Keywords SERP (Search Engine Ranking Position).

As we need natural links so we should use as many methods of link building as many we can, it would help.

Both techniques are the best to generate back links on high PR websites. You can get fast indexing of websites with the help of these techniques.

Yes you people are right, both are effective as per my experience. High page rank domains should be targeted to gain good ranking.

Social bookmarking and Forum conversation both are good but when we talk comparative analysis than forum conversation is stronger than social bookmarking because in forum sites we become always active and get long term back link and traffic benefit.

Once again thanks to todion for better explanation about social bookmarking and forum submission, Glad to hear about the same. Seems like you have good experience in SEO.

Both have their advantages,

Forum posting creates great opportunity for a specific niche if your thread or post is posted in the right section of a forum.

Social bookmarks on the other hand are good because you do not need to worry about the "Ban Hammer" coming down on you for "spamming" the forum, even though you may not have that intention.

Both are great for gathering a following or building backlinks!

Forum posting is more effective rather then Social bookmarking to acquire the quality backlinks.
