With regard to PR I built my site with me in mind and with what I would like to see (I am a total novice you might be able to tell from my siteI submitted it to search engines in some directories and as my sig in my email and I now have a pr 3 after 5 months. Haven't really a clue as to what I am doing so just goes to show don;t try to cheat anything and it will happen on its own. Just need some more traffic now lol
Signature links will NOT do anything to your PR. I had one for a full cycle, posted in PR4 threads and after the update it was still PR0 So build some real backlinks instead.
oooOo I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one sweet As long as a link doesn't have nofollow and is viewable by guest, then some pr juice will transfer. You have to take several things into consideration with this. The # of outbound links on those pages The ip from all those links, it's best to get links from several ip's The relevancy of the links The pr of those pages PR is all about backlinks, but Traffic is what you should be watching.
Guys, I believe that signature link increase your PR, I've live example, my aircraft maintenance site was N/A rank and I put the link in the signature like 3 months or less ago, and now unbelievable PR rank jump on 2nd PR. so do not ignore the signature link, and keep reply the threads.
You need to be posting on 20 different sites to do that, and even then the results won't be as good as a single pure PR 3
Well your theory on Pagerank is pretty sound, but due to the large volume of outbound links and the low PR of thread pages signature links here do basically nothing for Pagerank. Proof - 4,450 signature links As you can see, all links are DP signature links and the PR is ZERO. It even has 9 in the Google link command. This is the second time i have done this, first was when i had 1,500 posts and after a full pagerank cycle PR0. Second time 4,000 sig links and PR0, however i will do it again at about 7,000 but i doubt the outcome will be any different. So i'm not talking out my backside on this, i have actually tested it more than once with identical results. I'm obviously standing by my original statement, DP signature links will not give you Pagerank and does virtually nothing for your SERP's either. Here is my anchor text in quotes which has just 1,160 results. SEO Coin
I have 20+ sites and started building 1-way links for 2 of them at Nov./4th last year. I didn't submitted thes sites to link directories or did any other links building activities. I only joined a free link building service and added these 2 sites to the system. Now after about 2 month one site hast PR2 and the other one PR3 (before PR0), for one site I get 150 unique visitors a day and for the other one about 50. Before I only got a few visitors. Now I added my other sites to the link building system (see link in my signature) to improve their PR too.
i have a question about sigs in forums. i started adding my links to my sig in another forum. when i used backlinkchecker last night, i noticed some hits from that forum. i was happy to see it was working, but i noticed it only picked up only a small percentage of those sigs. is this because I just started earlier this month and will i eventually see hits on all my sig posts? for those forum members who have thousands of posts (all with their link in their sig), do they have the same amount of backlinks from dp? -dan
Multiple posts in the same thread may count as one link, in other instances, it may take time for the links to come to light. Like if the post above this one got indexed, it may take a while for this post to makes it's way in as well. Though regardless of whether or not the bots catch it, people do.
well mate, check to see if the relevant threads appear on the 1st or 2nd page on Google results or something....then you know it's worthwhile...leave a good post wih your Sig...Bingo!
