    Forum signature is worth it. But you don't have to rely on forum posting alone since there are different methods we can apply to increase the banklink and at the same time obtain higher traffic to your site. You can also use some techniques such as social bookmarking, article submission and etc.

    Sure it workds well. But keep in mind "The forum must have Do follow attribute" and with lot of visitors. Otherwise it is futile.

    If its a forum where your profile is public without having to login to see it, then yes

    if the page does not carry any PR does do-follow really matter?

    with that said, you can get lots of lead visits via your signature link

    It's all in how much you post to how much it will help. Not to mention is it in the right area. People that want to know more about puppies won't even bat an eye at your link to buy homes.

    It depends on the relevance of the forum you are posting on. You also have to interact more, meaning do a lot of posts. Add value to the conversation.. Every bit of SEO, especially link building, will help in the long run.

    Every little bit of your links posted on a website with same niche will help but not in a obvious results. Combination of backlinks from forums, articles, social bookmarkings and media will help to boost up our traffic but not necessary in ranking.

    Bear in mind, you will need to optimize your on-site SEO for the off-site SEO to take better effect.

    very few forum pages i come across have a google page rank so i guess they are not that important, good blogs often have a google page rank which will give you a better link.

    yup it will help. Just choose the forum carefully. I think that it will give small boost on your ranking but you will get quality, targeted visitor, which I think is one of the best :)

    I think signature does help if it is managed properly. You have to spend some times in high PR, Quality related forum with your niche, interact with people, help them with their problems etc. Only then, they will look you as an expert of your niche and will gladly and interestingly click whatever you put in your signature box.
