Such signature links may establish valuable connections and strengthen your authority in your niche. Apart from Google rankings, if done regularly, they're a good sign you mean real business.
It's pretty useful I would think.. I get tons of traffic when contributing to a thread or discussion. Also help with ranking.
It depends on the forum and the user. if the forum is good and the user are posting quality post, then it helps alot If those spamming forum or spammer signature, then it wouldnt help in long term
I do agree with you. I have also noticed that once I change the signature link in settings, it automatically changes all the signature links in all posts. If it happens to all then the seller may change his signature after he got paid. That is using signtaure link by one's own is better. For driving traffic atleast.
First of all, you can get rather relevant traffic from signatures - if you are really involved into forums' life. Dofollow links also can help your site to get a better google rank, still I would say here you need signatures on multiple forums. If you use such service, make sure they do not post your links on some trash forums, what is more, some dishonest companies use hacked accounts what will make even worse for you...
I think you have taken the subject itself very lightly. Forum links are a very strong way to generate backlinks and normally the people posting them have a decent idea
And what if you are not? also, you can't be present on 50-100 different forums daily but a team can! You might spend years and years counting posts in 4 digits which can be done in merely a fraction of months by various people working together But again, if you think you are good in doing it your own way, then just go ahead and keep doing it ...
Signature blocks in forums are highly effective. First, it positions you as the expert you are in your field--providing fellow forum readers with a glimpse of who you are and what your business offers. Second, it does work as far as backlinks are concerned.
This is the 37th post on this thread. I am fortunate that I can still participate on this discussion. For me, forum signature text plays a significant role in getting backlinks while getting the opportunity to get involved with the forums wherein your site is closely related. In short, you are learning new things while you are generating your backlinks. Of course, the quality and the quantity of the contents are still the most important aspect of posting in forums to prevent your posts to be mistakenly identified as a spam.
Signature link in a forum really help to increase traffic, backlinks as well as other seo values specially if signature link is dofollow. Therefore most of the webmaster prefer to dofollow signature link.
Be it DoFollow or NoFollow, all Signature links do help you promoting your site. Just look your Google Analytics.
