There are so many different names for a “forum”. Some think of them as message boards or bulletin boards. Some call them threaded discussions, discussion boards or discussion groups while others call them conferences. FuseTalk simply calls them forums.

Deciding if just one forum or multiple forums is needed can be difficult, especially if there is an uncertainty of how they are defined and what makes a forum.

The simplistic definition of a forum is a place where people have the ability to start communication (in the form of threads) and reply to other people's threads. A member of the community in the forum posts a message, which is visible to everyone in that community. Once read, there is the option to post a reply, which can also be visible to the community. Thus, a discussion can build up without all users having to be online at the same time.

I totally agree with you on forum definition. Also forum is a medium to learn about others' point of view and their likes and dislikes.

It is a best off-page optimization activity. Forums are used to discuss queries, problems and issues. Forums are good source to get quality back links as well as reputation and to generate traffic. Through signatures, you can get back links. In forums, you need to keep participating in threads. Active participation is very necessary in forums otherwise your account is closed. You can’t use forums only for signature linking. Starting new threads, participation in threads and to reply of threads are necessary to get advantage of back links taken from forums.
