For my 100th post I thought I'd do one of these backlink guides posts. I've searched the forum but haven't seen mention of this site before, so here's a guide to getting d0follow contextual links from experiment .com!

Experiment .com is currently DR73, TF47 and DA63 for those of you interested in third party metrics.

1) Visit the register page
Code:
https://experiment.com/register
and click sign up with email, then fill in the form and the recaptcha that comes after it. What's good here is that you can currently put any random email address you want in the email field, as the site doesn't send out any email verification emails!

2) You should be taken to a 'thankyou for registering' page. Next, click on the little avatar icon in the top right, next to the beaker icon. Then click on 'settings' in the dropdown menu that appears.

3) This is the form for us to (ab)use. The box we're interested in is the 'about you' section. This is where you paste your article. We only have max 2000 characters to work with here, but that's easily enough for 300+ words. I mainly see people just paste a url into their about you section, but you can use the small toolbar above the box to set your contextual links - simply highlight the text you want to be the anchor and click the 'link' button. You can fill in other fields in the form too if you want - I like to put an article title in the 'professional title' box.

4) After submitting the form and getting a 'successfully updated' message, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click on the 'view my profile' button. And there you have it, a page with your d0follow contextual link.
Code:
https://experiment.com/users/bbhwsteptoe

Extra Step 1) The page will be orphaned, so you will need to build some links to it to get it indexed. Alternatively you can visit a project page and submit a comment to get an internal link to your profile page. Visit
Code:
https://experiment.com/projects/random
to find a random project, click on the 'discussion' tab and write a comment about the project. This may increase the probability your profile is moderated, so don't be spammy.

There you have it, happy backlinking!
 
Easiest back link and its a do follow. Juicy!!
 
Yay, example url seems to have indexed naturally. Or someone has sent it to an indexer
 
I will create a profile today only.
By the way thanks and after all, we are getting a of do follow link that is something we SEO crave off
 

Google itself suggest that they Mostly Ignore sWeb 2.0 Links/profile creation link, aren't you think the above links comes under web2.0 and profile links.​

 
I stopped paying attention to Google's suggestions over 10 years ago and haven't looked back. This link certainly has it's uses, but if you're expecting 1 link built via a guide shared on a public forum to move mountains for you then you're in for disappointment

Just do opposite of what Google says and you will be fine. I have seen good results doing just that.
