    Just a quick wonder, As PR works off backlinks, could your signature in a forum like DP add to your PR ranking or is this not possible?:)

    OR... you could completely forget about PageRank and focus on building quality content that people will link to naturally.

    (That's my one of those for September)

    If the forums pass link juice, it will help.

    With so many outgoing link on each page, it won't help much.

    Yes it can but PR is not so important now. Signature links are useful to bring some new users to the site.

    It all depends on the forum. I really doubt how much link juice a website can extract from typical forums. A point to ponder upon. I think if it really does then it will be a regular hunting spot for the spammers.

    Forum signature links will help bring in targeted traffic from click troughs. It will increase your page rank and will help with ranking for keywords. I get a lot of traffic from my posts in other forums. Forum posting is not the quickest and easiest way to build links - so if you are here for just links don't bother

    For PR, it'll help a little, but it's best utilised to gain traffic in my experience
