    When you change the links in your signature is the change retrospective. I mean the new site I've just put in there, Will that now have back links from all of my posts?

    Thanks

    Yes, but google has greatly devalued their worth along with directory backlinks.

    I believe that you really need to have back links on pages that have a good quantity/quality of content. (I could be wrong)

    Yes, changes will be retroactive, unless you didn't have a signature, then your sig. won't be displayed on old posts. This is due to the fact that vB allows you to show/not show your sig. on a per-post basis.

    Yes, it's a great way to get a new site indexed.
