Title: Do forum signatures really help?
Post by: kingage21 on June 03, 2011, 10:58:06 PM
I have forum accounts on various sites and I am wondering how much a signature really helps. Let's say link to one of my sites from my sig line here with the anchor text "anchor text choice one" and from another forum I link to the same site with "anchor text choice two."

Would this help my site? I know I only have a handful of posts here, but I have a lot of posts on other forums. Just wondering how much this helps.

Also, is it a bad idea to link to let's say two of my niche sites here and then the same two on another sig? Or should I mix it up: like link to two sites here and link to two different sites on a different forum sig?

Users will typically use a "signature" text area in their given profile for input, which can then allow a user to turn off signatures. Depending on the board's capabilities, signatures may range from a simple line or two of text to an elaborately-constructed HTML piece. Images are often allowed as well, including dynamically updated images usually hosted remotely and modified by a server-side script.Signatures are seen as an art form by many of their creators, and there are many websites centered around their creation and display. Some of these websites have competitions, battles and signature of the week contests, where members submit their entries to have them featured on the website.

In addition to off site forum offerings, you can also consider hosting a forum on your own website instead. This is is the most likely relevant content for the new visitor, and is the best way to draw them in. Leave the chit chat and introduction topics at the bottom. That stuff is for your true regulars, and they will check it out without encouragement.

Most of us have such tailor made signatures at the bottom of out emails declaring our name and designation. Similar signatures can also be used when you post at different discussion forums or article directories to tell a thing or two about yourself. A lot of people provide link to their own websites along with their names in this space. But there are a whole lot of things that you can do with these few lines of forum signatures. But make sure you read the rules and regulations of respective forums before putting anything on your signature as some of them might not allow commercial promotions.

Images are often allowed as well, including dynamically updated images usually hosted remotely and modified by a server-side script.Signatures are seen as an art form by many of their creators, and there are many websites centered around their creation and display. Some of these websites have competitions, battles and signature of the week contests, where members submit their entries to have them featured on the website.
