    Signature links are very helpful in targetting our keywords when we use it as text links.

    It helps, at least for real visitor traffic, not only from link juice :)

    They are not wortless links. the problem is that 10 links from one site has as much value as 25,000.

    Any link counts ... it does matter where you place them but still worth it.

    Forum links are not useless for sure, especially if the forum you have links from is on the same topic as your website...

    what about it? I linked to that tool in the first page..
    not so true,, the link I posted has nothing to do with the niche, yet it still helps.

    btw.. there is no such thing as "dofollow" :rolleyes:

    there is "nofollow"

    ps.. this should help with the poor sig link sales, showing that they Can help ;)

    question: How many keywords can be included in a anchor text in a signature link? What is the effect of having one signature link or four? Is one more powerful that four? is there dilution?
