Forums are the great source of getting backlinks. I posted on many forums and added links in the signature and thread as well. So, Is it worth to get backlinks from the forums to increase the ranking of the website?

Yes, you can use the forum to get backlinks for your website. But some forums are strict as you have to follow their rules to add keyword or link in the signature.

Yes, For backlink purpose forums are much helpful to your website because it can give you backlinks in each and every post of yours by placing your signature link just with your posts. Forums can be also a good source of traffic but you should use these forum sites as they must be relevant to your niche.
Post highly relevant and precise answers and comments in relevant threads and questions.

You can skip the forum for backlinks and opt for guest posting it is more worth and there is no risk of getting the band.

To get backlinks from the forum you need to do a lot of smart work. The main reason behind this is that while building backlinks from the forum if you're using the forum for the first time and mentioning too much of links into it, then it will create a problem and moderator will ban your account from that forum and you won't be able to access that account. So after completing the registration part on the forum start with a general discussion by initiating a topic relevant to your business niche. And later on add the signature link to the profile. Once you have reached the discussion or thread limit then start building backlinks from the same. I hope the mentioned information will be sufficient for you.

In the most cases, forums are using nofollow tags when you insert the link. As an SEO point of view you won't improve the SERP results of your page, but if the forums are relevant to what you're writing about, you can easily generate more leads and traffic. If you provide good quality of content, it may be reposted.

Basically, forum means a discussion platform where people gather to converse.
If your website has a forum section and people start discussing that means you can find the people who are really interested in your niche. Thus it helps to get you quality backlinks.
You can make forum valuable for your SEO in the following ways:
(1) Have an active community.
(2) Allow do follow links.
(3) Be related to your site's industry.
So you can get valuable backlinks from the forum if used properly.
