    Some of us have a lot of messages spread accross many forums and blogs, and our message incluse our signature (name + site address sometimes) :)

    If there were an advertising network that was designed for you to add a sponsored link below your name in your signature, would you take part, to make some money on a pay per click basis?

    What do you think about the idea? :cool:

    i would go for it i guess. but i would consider a contract basis option. i think its better if you get around $20 per month per link. that makes sense

    I think it's an interesting idea, however the Signiture holder would probably earn more if he sell is on a monthly basis, especailly if he has a lot of posts.

    For the Buyer, your new Idea seems pretty decent, since he only pays for the people acutally interested (visitors)

    Nice idea in general.

    I wouldn't really do it as I would prefer to use the space to promote my own sites or if I wanted to I would sell the space directly myself which will cut out the middle man.

    i think it is a dumb idea.
    IMO,this forum or any other is not there so you can make money off your sig.
    how many clicks will a sig get?i'm assuming not many.then there is the pcp,which may be 1 cent.
    if your hard up for 10¢ a day,get a thing called a job. :p

    I've made about $200 from the referral links in my sig. Not too shabby if you ask me.
