Its a tactic used by SEO professionals to gain dofollow/nofollow backlinks from reputed sites.

Profile links use to work with SEO. They are a total waste of time now. They are very low quality links and will not help you rank a site.

Profile links are links in your profile on forums and other sites that you join and can fill out a profile. For example, your profile page here on WMS.

If a forum has a high PR and is a follow link surely by that definition it is a useful link?

No it would not mean it is a useful link. For one thing, the content of the profile page would not be relevant to the page being linked. Think about it...

A forum about cars linking from a user profile page to a page about women's makeup. The link would be pure garbage. It would not even get type-in traffic.

Plus PR has not been published for a long time. And then, it related to the page, not the site.

Think before you link. :)

Just because Google do not publish PR does not mean that it doesn't exist. Its still very important in terms of passing "link juice".

So much of mixed responses! I'm getting confused :)
You should read and analyzing to find out which answer is exactest :)

According to me, Rob and SEOPub answered exactly.

No SEO professional uses that "tactic".

Only people using profile links are spammers. They are a total waste of time. Complete garbage links.

Yes, profile links are pretty dead now. I wouldn't recommend using them anymore.

It depends on the type of website you are creating a profile on. If you create a profile on a website that's related to your niche, it can work. Also, when you create a profile, try to use it as much as possible.
