AI SEO Backlinks · Forum Mentions

Your link inside a live discussion on the topic you want to rank for.

Search indexes those pages. The words around your link are what tell search what it is about. $18 a comment.


  • Discussion pages get indexed. Your link can be sitting on one of them.
  • Context is the signal. The words around a link tell search what it's about.
  • Relevance is what makes it count. The comment goes in a thread on your subject, not on a dead board.
  • Not a signature link from 2011. It sits inside the discussion, where somebody would put it on purpose.
  • You get a live URL. Open it and read the thread yourself. Most vendors never let you check.
  • We won't promise you readers. Some threads send clicks, some only send the signal.
  • $18 a comment. Order 1 to 100. Nothing in this catalogue costs less.
  • Don't order a hundred the same. Same page, same anchor, and you've built the bad version yourself.

A link inside the thread,
where the topic is already discussed.

Search engines index discussion pages, not just articles.

AI answers get built from pages that can be found. Threads are some of them.

This puts your link inside a thread on your subject.

The words around a link tell search what the link is about.

So a relevant thread is the whole point. That is the signal you are buying.

Some threads send readers too. We won't tell you how many.

The AI SEO Backlinks catalogue with Forum Mentions listed alongside the other placement types, each row showing its cost beside an Order button.
$18. The cheapest row here. Forum Mentions against the rest of the family, with every cost printed on its own row. It's the least expensive way into this catalogue.

Why most forum links do nothing

A forum link on the wrong thread is worth nothing.

This is how forum links got their bad name.

Somebody drops a plumbing link in a thread about laptops.

Irrelevance is what kills a forum link. Not the forum.

Search reads the page and the words around the link. Wrong topic, no signal.

So the comment goes in a discussion on your subject, and the anchor is your keyword.

One more straight answer, because every vendor here hints at traffic. We won't tell you how many people read it.

Some threads are busy. Some are quiet. We don't control which one you get.

But readers were never the mechanism. Indexed, relevant discussion is.

Test us on the cheapest thing we sell.

The account is free and takes no card. Order one comment, open the live URL, then send it for indexing. Decide about the rest of the catalogue after that.

How a mention gets placed

Find the thread on your topic. Put the link in it.

Three fields, same as the niche-edit products. What differs is where the link lands, not what you have to type.

  1. 01

    Pick the client

    Every order files under a client record. That's what keeps the report findable months later.

  2. 02

    Give one keyword and one link

    One anchor and one target URL per comment. Import the keywords from Campaign Builder, the rank tracker or Search Console.

  3. 03

    The comment goes in a discussion on the topic

    Contextual, inside the thread. Not a signature link on a dead board. The surrounding words are what make it count.

  4. 04

    Watch the status, not a clock

    Draft, Submitted, In progress, Completed. We don't publish a delivery date, because we don't have one worth quoting.

  5. 05

    The URL lands in a branded report

    Your logo, the client, each anchor beside the thread it went into.

  6. 06

    You send it for indexing

    A link does nothing for you until Google has it. One click per row. It's not automatic and we won't say it is.

What you end up holding

A thread URL you can open and read.

Picture the next client call. You open the report and click the thread. You don't have to explain it. You just scroll.

A live thread URL
Open it. Read the discussion your comment sits in.
The anchor and target, recorded
What you ordered beside what was delivered. An anchor audit takes a minute.
An index status
One click to submit, then tracked until Google has it. Not automatic.
A branded report per order group
Your logo on it, stored against the client record. Client-ready.
Refunds you don't have to chase
Credits come back if the comment can't be placed.

A comment is $18. Nothing here costs less.

Order 1 to 100 at a time. Charged when the order is accepted, and refunded on its own if it can't be placed. Credits don't expire.

The countable part

The numbers, including the ones we won't quote.

Cost
$18 a comment today, at the 1,000-credit plan rate. A smaller plan costs a little more per comment, a bigger one less. The Order screen prints the cost before you confirm.
Unit
One comment. Order 1 to 100 at a time.
Placement
A contextual link inside a real community thread.
Deliverable
A live URL you can open.
Anchor
One keyword or phrase per comment. Up to 160 characters.
Target
One URL per comment. Up to 2048 characters.
Keyword import
From Campaign Builder, the rank tracker, or Search Console.
Traffic
We don't quote one. Some threads send clicks, some only send the signal. You get the URL and can judge it.
Which forum
You don't pick it. You give the anchor and the target, and the placement is found on a relevant discussion.
Indexing
One click per row from the report, then tracked until indexed. Not automatic.
Report
Branded HTML per order group. Download it as a PDF or save it to Drive.
Refunds
Charged when the order is accepted. Refunded automatically if it can't be placed.
Delivery date
We don't publish one. The status moves Draft, Submitted, In progress, Completed. There's no completion webhook.

$18 is today's price at the 1,000-credit plan rate, and the Order button prints the credit cost it spends. These are placed through outside networks, so a supplier catalogue change moves the number.

What it costs to find out

Price the cheapest link in the catalogue first.

The account is free and needs no card. Open the catalogue and read what a comment costs. It is $18 today, printed on the Order button.

Creating the account is free. Not a trial that takes your card "for verification" — no card at all, and no call with anyone.

And nothing expires on a timer. Credits sit in the account until you spend them.


When you're ready to spend

$0.35–$0.50

per credit, improving with the volume you commit to

What you are not signing

No contract, no minimum, no quote and no call. Buy credits monthly if the volume suits you, or buy a block once and owe nothing after it.

Every deliverable in the platform prints its credit cost on the button that spends it, so you always price the work before you run it.

Before you ask

The questions we'd ask before pointing this at a client.

What does a forum mention actually do for SEO?
It puts your link inside indexed discussion about your subject. Search engines read those pages, and the words around a link are part of how they work out what the link is about. A relevant thread is the whole mechanism.
Isn't forum spam the oldest bad tactic there is?
Signature links and drive-by comments are, and they've been worthless for over a decade. What kills a forum link is irrelevance — a plumbing link in a thread about laptops. This one goes inside a discussion on your topic.
Will this move my rankings?
It builds one of the signals rankings are made of, on the cheapest unit we sell. We won't promise you a ranking change from a comment, because nobody honestly can. What we can give you is the live URL to check.
Will these send me traffic?
Some will and some won't, and we're not going to put a number on it. Readers were never the mechanism. You get the URL, so you can open the thread and judge it yourself.
Does this get my client named in AI answers?
No promise, from us or from anyone with a straight face. Answer engines assemble from sources they can find, and indexed discussion is a lot of what they find about a category.
Can I choose which forum?
No. You supply the anchor and the target, and the placement is found on a relevant discussion.
Why is it so much cheaper than everything else here?
Because a comment costs less to place than an editorial insert into an aged page. It's the least expensive row in the catalogue, which makes it the sensible thing to test us on.
Do the links index by themselves?
No. Anyone telling you their links index themselves is guessing. You submit each row with one click from the report, and we track it until Google has it.

A link inside the thread,
where the topic is already discussed.

Here's the part that has nothing to do with us. The discussion about your category is being indexed right now. Every month, more of it. Your client is not in any of it.

So you have two choices. Another spreadsheet of links nobody can check. Or live thread URLs in a branded report, sitting inside discussion on the subject you want to own.

Build the company brief and get the keywords into the tracker first. Then buy the cheapest thing in the catalogue and see what it does.

P.S. — I know why you're hesitating. "Forum links" still sounds like 2009. So read the mechanism again: a contextual link, on a relevant indexed thread, with a live URL you can open, for $18. The account is free and needs no card. The price prints on the button.
