    With almost 2500 posts, I get around 150-200 visitors to my SEO Blog every month from DP. I sometimes actively post at DP, but if I am busy, I do not regularly post. Also, if I highlight my blog and give it a link in one of my posts, like I've done in this one, it gets more visitors and click throughts than the same link in my sig.

    lol. From your signature I can safely say that you will have more than 1 visitor as I was one of them to one of your links.

    So that's 1+ others


    I had done that in these forums just to try it and I only lasted a month. One month trial was enough for me. I think it would have been better to leave it for about 3 months, but though it was not worth it as I think it would have still not been that good.

    Anyway, here are my results.

    I had a post count of 2,000
    I bought sig links of around 20 different people here giving me a link on around 20,000 - 30,000 posts. That sounded great and would get loads of traffic. The true fact of it all is that my 2,000 posts was getting much more traffic than the 20,000-30,000 posts.

    The reasons for this is because alot of them posts will well berried and where not even listed in the search engines anymore plus most of the posts made by them posters were in the wrong sections of the forums, for example they had mainly done their posts in the buy, sell or trade forums where they mainly hang out to make money.

    So after purchasing the links on all them posts I saw a very small percentage increase in DP traffic. That was around 40 - 80 extra uniques costing me around $0.50 - $0.80 per visitor, when I budgeted it at around $0.10 per visitor max that I wanted to spend. After all, I did it for the traffic and not for the serps.

    I guess that if you don't try you will never know though. It probably will work better for some sites than others.

    Tough to say... In June I've got 425 visits from forums.digitalpoint.com. And I have (in time of writing this post) about 550 posts.

    Your getting some good traffic there Game Producer considering you have only 555 posts and 2 links that go to sites where the other 2 goes to threads on this forum. Good effort there.

    The thing is, what ever you get from your posts, you will never get that amount of traffic from purchasing other peoples posts. In other words, if you had 1,000 posts and got 200 uniques a month, then don't expect to get 200 uniques extra per month if you bought a sig that has 1,000 posts. You are more likely to just get 10 - 30 extra uniques I think.

    The reasons for this is because normally a lot of people set up a site to make money, plus they also normally enjoy that subject. This means that they will post on threads that is exactly about the stuff that their site is about. So other people looking at this thread will be there because they also have an interest in that thread and what it says and then will see the signature link and click it. With purchasing signatures, that will not happen, but may happen on about 1-5% of the threads.

    Hope you understand what I'm getting at.
