If I make 100 replies in WF, will I get 100 clicks on my signature?

by Raja Kamil
57 replies
I just want to ask anybody that have any experience with foruming in WF.
If you make 100 replies in any thread here in WF, provided that :
1. the replies is answering or discussing the OP
2. sometime, the replies are informative

Is it possible to get traffic from the signature?

How quality will be the traffic? Since WF is an IM forum, most probably the traffic will come from IM niche as well.

ps : I've disabled my signature so that we can discuss this topic openly here

Thanks for the coming inputs

      Only a matter of time until this post gets 100 thanks :p

      To the OP: I don't think 100 replies would equate to 100 clicks. But I can almost guarantee, depending on how eye catching your sig is that you'll get some clicks. Maybe if in a third of the replies you drew attention to your signature. (NOTE: The underlined portion is not advisable and you run a high risk of getting your signature privileges removed if you attempt it.)

      The thing is though, I've found that people clicking on your signature due to a post that you left (without drawing attention to your sig) is the most valuable type of traffic.

        You might get 100 clicks, from those posts. But it might not be on the same day.

        Very valuable point. That's what I thought. People following the sig links because you have made a remarkable post not just means they are interested in the sig links / advert alone, they are essentially interested in YOU and they are becoming a follower. You are becoming the leader of a clan.

          I should have pointed out that it's not recommended. It was kind of sarcasm, meaning, that's the only way to get 100 clicks in 100 replies. Didn't stop to think people might read that and take my advice.

          Thanks for pointing that out Michael,

      I'm wondering....aren't the rest of you? I gotta say, there are some hilarious and significant answers and ideas here. Loved it!

      But I just wonder, after all of this, what the 'Admin' is thinking....

      We heard discussions about disallowed signature actions, pro's and cons to both sides - despite, again, it's clear statement in the rules, and the (again...HILARIOUS) fact that the 'ADMIN' chimed in early to share his hope that the answers would be in the negative....

      And after 43 (and growing) posts, it still seems so simple. Obviously, you will get clicks, if your signature happens to be of interest to someone of the thousands that may see it. How many.....really? Much smarter people than I couldn't and wouldn't venture a guess.

      But oh my, I would love to be a fly on the wall to know what our 'Admin' thinks about this thread....

    Wait, Raja,

    Now that I think about it. It depends on what's in your signature. Is it free?

    A fellow warrior, I'm sure you know him, had something similar to this in his sig:

    New to IM and Don't Know Where To Start?|Seasoned Marketer But Want To Take It To The Next Step?| For Your FREE Consultation PM me or Email Me At (Insert Email Address Here)

    Out of curiosity, I PM'd him and asked him how many people actually reached out to him. He said he got around 50 PM's and 250 Emails within the 9 day period that he had that on his signature.

    It's not exactly, "Clicking" the signature, but taking the action recommended in the signature is almost the same thing.

      But you have to keep in mind that more than 1 person will see it. A lot more actually. So in order to get 100 clicks, he doesn't need everyone to click on it.

      The only true way to know this is to test it. Too many variables in this equation.

      -What are you promoting in your sig?
      -Is it free? Does it cost?
      -Do you have the words, "FREE, GIFT, SPECIAL, NOW" in your sig?
      -What types of posts are you replying to?
      -Are you replying one time per post? Or multiple times in the same thread?
      -Are your replies valuable, funny, helpful?
      -ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC

      See where I'm getting at? lol

    Lot's of factors matter. It isn't only whether you're discussing it thoroughly, well and detailed. Some stuff matters like being the first reply (or just top of the page - to put it that way) in a popular thread, etc.

    However, I still don't think that ratio is correct - at all! I'm pretty sure if you present on-topic discussions the ratio will be something like 1:5 (or 20%). Probably - surely - not a 100% ratio. If you have an image in your signature then that may increase by another 20%, but probably not more.

    Another factor it matters on is the offer. If it's a general offer that applies to most Warriors then sure, but if it's a specific offer that only applies to a handful of Warriors then you probably won't get a lot of clicks at all.

    P.S. Allen, you should have replied later, that way you would've known who they are!

      That wouldn't be a 100% ratio unless you do replies:clicks and not views:clicks.

      There will be a lot more than 1 person seeing his post, so depending on the offer, I don't see why he can't get 1 click per post.

      You're right though, there are a lot of factors in this.

        I think you misunderstood my post.

        I'm saying that if you make 10 replies, chances are you'll get 2 clicks. Therefore, a 20% ratio.

        Obviously there isn't one person viewing his post, where did you get that? :confused:

        But out of all the people who viewed his post, only a fraction would click it.

        Hope that clarifies it for you.

          Yeah, I understand. Nothing against you lol

          The only way to really find out is to test it.

          Like I said in an earlier post, there's way too many factors in this equation. He can make 10 replies and get 2 clicks, or he could make 10 replies and get 20 clicks. It all depends.

            I agree, I'm just making a point from an general perspective.

            So basically, some replies could get 5 clicks and others could get none, but in the end the ratio's going to be roughly 20%.

              It would make a great argument for raising the price of having an image signature...

    @ the OP

    Thats not the best way to look at it. Some people post the most useless bs just to drive traffic to their signature. They will go around the forum making 1 or 2 sentence posts in threads that are relevant to their sig. The problem being, their posts contain no value whatsoever.

    You can make 100 posts, and not have 1 person click your sig.
    Alternatively, you can make 10 hi value/hi quality posts, and easily have 100 people click your sig. Its more about the value and quality you deliver than anything else.

    But yes sigs are a great way to drive traffic. My sig was only live for 4 days and I wound up getting more responses than I can handle. I found myself answering so many of the same questions over and over that now I'm working on a guide. Which I really should have had from step 1.

    Would be nice, but no. Couple variations that matter, your call to action of your signature. Was it referenced in your post. How well the signature is constructed. How many post and klout you have on the forum. Are you a trusted authority. If the signature is relevant in topic of the post and if it's something that's offered everyday or a limited time offer. However, I can tell you from experience, I do get a TON of people go to my signature and foll0w me on Twitter, or friend me on facebook. It also depends on wether your leading to a blog post, salesletter, or social network

    You have the totally wrong mindset.

    If you are here to do "foruming..." whatever that is... then you are not going to last long.

    But if you are here to participate, contribute, help, and learn... and BE a Warrior then as a consequence of your honest participation people will occasionally click on your signature... IF your contributions are valuable enough that people are curious about what it is you do or have to offer beyond what you have contributed.

    But if you are here merely to generate volume and fill threads with useless replies... then you will earn a reputation equal to your participation.

    How many sig clicks would a sig link get if a sig link could click sigs?...or something like that?

    Seriously, I don't see the point in the question. It's not one that can be answered definitively one way or the other.

    It actually kind of cracks me up that there have been this many replies already.

    If your signature said "Click here and I will immediately send you $100 via Paypal, no strings attached" I suspect you would get far more than 100 clicks from 100 replies.

    That message would be well targeted for pretty much everyone

    It's going to depend on what your signature says, how relevant it is for the people reading it and many other things.

    And keep in mind that your signature remains on older posts too, so you'll get clicks from posts you made long ago as well as recent ones.

    But as someone already pointed out, if you're posting merely to get your signature in front of people, you probably won't last long. Make taking part your primary goal, and you will get traffic from your signature.

    I'd like to think it's not just about making random replies. I'm hoping that making an effort in your reply to a thread will give you more sig link clicks than just doing a random drive-by post.

    I do get a few clicks from signatures, but there is one free feature of the Warrior Forum that drives even more traffic. I have reasonably good success getting traffic from blog posts on the Warrior Forum.

    Not avalanche style traffic, but pretty decent amounts of traffic. Although blogging on the Warrior Forum is still in its infancy as far as my blog is concerned it is certainly something that't worth investigating.

    As far as signatures go I know I get some traffic, but so far it has not caused bandwidth issues...if ya know what I mean

    It will depend on how popular the thread is. If more people see the thread because there is an interesting discussion going on in it, then there's a higher likelihood you'll get more clicks.

    It would also be better to be among the first to respond in a thread. Not everyone will scroll all the way down, so if you're up the top then there's more people that will see your post and signature.

    There are lots of variables to consider, such as:-

    1. Number of views the post gets

    2. How near the top you are

    3. How much useful information you give on the thread

    4. The effectiveness of your sig

    5. Whether the offer in your sig is relevant to the thread and the reader's needs

    6. The active life of the thread

    The number of daily clicks also depends on the total number of posts you have made over time as it tends to have a cumulative effect (to a certain extent).

    You can use some tracking service like google analytics. Install google analytics code on your site to track your traffic. Clicking on a signature links probably depends on quality of your posts, your engagement and of course on number of your posts.
    It also depends on what words you put in your signature!

    Hi Raja!

    Yeah just aim to post eye catching titles.

    But with content that is of massive value or asks great questions etc.

    Just aim to generate threads that give and give more than any other.

    Get creative but do not try to take advantage of people as everyone here are really nice people and deserve quality information.

    All the best and hope this clears any confusion!!!

    I have tracked clicks on several occasions and it still falls to offer. My tracking abilities didn't allow to see the exact post that received the click. It could have been serious post or banter .. don't know.

    I track actual contacts as that is really what matters at the end of the day. Those results are directly related to your landing and perceived value.

    I have never pointed out my sig in a post. I won't say I have never responded to threads because they related to my sig. In the long run of things ... what you give will be what you receive.

    if you provide a lot of value in your replies and posts i am sure you will get at least 100 visits to your signature page. people value knowledge and if you provide that then people will trust you as a source and then click on your signature link to see what you offer.

    If you make 100 replies in any thread here in WF, provided that :
    1. the replies is answering or discussing the OP
    2. sometime, the replies are informative

    Is it possible to get traffic from the signature?

    How quality will be the traffic? Since WF is an IM forum, most probably the traffic will come from IM niche as well.

    ps : I've disabled my signature so that we can discuss this topic openly here

    Thanks for the coming inputs
    The short answer ... No, you won't get 100 clicks.
    The longer answer ... depends on what's in your signature. Not everyone who reads your posts will be interested, and some don't even look at signatures, but honestly, you'll probably have less clicks on your signature if you post for signature clicks. Those kinds of posts are easy to spot ... all fluff, not genuine ... just blah blah blah, and that doesn't lead to people being interested in what you have to sell.

    Provide real conversation and real value and people notice you more.
