To join a forum just takes a couple of minutes. You will register with your personal information. You can create a user name and your website address as well. Once you are approved you can go back and edit your profile to include more in depth personal information.

You can also include a signature file if the forum allows one. This will be a short 2-4 lines that you can include your name, website url, and a short ad on your business. Hyperlinking keywords is another way to get traffic for specific words by sending that link to your website URL.
