    Forum signature build reputation on very low rate but stay for life time. Its depend on you where you attach you signature it most important that your signature must look natural and on high pr forum page. If you get link on pr 5 page then it sure worth you.

    Hey I totally agrees with you that forum signature build reputation in very low rate but moreover i do feels if it is done in the right way using appropriate title, tags related to your signature what you're posting on forum, moreover it works well when it is done high PR site on related subject, then it counts much..

    backlink is still backlink no matter when it come from. And yes, i do agree that forum signature considered low rate since you can see mos of the individual page's PR is N/A although the forum with high PR

    Forum signature still works. it will also bring huge traffic, if you participate in niche forums.

    I don't believe that is true as I find that forum backlinks really helps my site by increasing SERPs and even gets me some traffic.

    Forum link can work but it may appear one day and missing for the rest of the weeks if there is no further activities.

    They certainly don't hurt. These type of things are questioned too much, it takes longer to post than it does to add it to your signature!

    I like clicking on interesting sigs. IMO is still works. If your niche is not the type to go on forums, then it's not effective.
