    I think prices will stay stable, as long as people keep them stable.
    As long as we stick to the 1/100 rule, then were good.

    I've notice a huge decline, the market feels slow in general. IF the value of PR falls, so will the sigs ;)

    If DP's PR goes up, maybe things will get better :)

    60 members with more then 5k post
    500 + members with more then 1k post

    i wonder how much total sigs are being paid off a month.

    also comparing the amount of new posts generated, how many new sponsors are being added each month.

    Yeah, I'm really struggling at the moment - lucky to get more than about $35 for my signature links. I have one link which I'm keeping on the off-chance the advertiser might renew. Unfortunately he hasn't been here for the last 3 months (quite bad for a moderator).

    The market for signature sales are getting more saturated as more members post more ;) it was bound to happen. Competition for sig sales will lead to competitive and lower prices.

    buyers are gonna get the max benifit now, buyers grow but the growth is far slower then the sellers .

    if u see one request from buyer there are more then 30-50 sellers.

    Oh yes, lets be nerdy and call it a logarithm graph (that basically illustrates what you just explained). Yay :p:p:p lol

    Maybe the best thing you can do is sell links for more than 1 month (maybe auctions of a couple months) to stay safe.

    The best thing to do is appreciate the fact that we still can sell sig links...;)

    Couple years ago, probably less, no sigs were sold at DP.

    In the end i think all should be happy to get some $$ from a link in a forum sig. :)

    one positive thing is active members will get 1st preference, so if ur average posting per day is low ur preference would be still lower.

    So you get 130+$ per month for a sig? :eek:

    That'd be cool :D

    *Sorry, had to remove your smilies to include mine :p

    Yes, the buyers benefit from it (especially directory owners). IT helps their PR which allows them to sell links on their site

    $10/1000 posts is a fair price.Sellers should not sell below this price.
