      I don't think it will have any effect on the backlink for SEO. The actual color and text though will appeal to different readers for clicks.

        I think keyword used in H1 tag might be helpful at some extent, but don't think so about color & style.

      Agree, somewhere i heard there was some WSO about signature only.

      Something, how to make $$xxxxx only with your signature.

    Hi,

    Yes it will help i getting more back-links because it will stand out more, but the key benefit is that search engines will pickup on these because when they are bolded and under italic font, the search engines can pickup on the importance of these words. Another strategy is to work with h1-h6 tags because this represents importance to a search engine as well. If you message me I will send over some articles that I have on exactly what you are referring to.

      True point.

      Formatting your signatures is not only appealing on the eyes, but Google has been known to put more weighting on backlinks that have formatted anchor text.

      This is because if it is meant to stand out to the reader then it should stand out as an important point for Google.

      When Google comes across tags such as <b><u><i><font><color><h1><h2><h3> etc (and the BBCode alternatives) it puts more emphasis on the rankings, but don't overuse it!

    Hi everyone,I think you use signature in forums, I would suggest that make it natural to other visitors. A signature that is related to your site and make it bold in small letters or randomly.

    No, colored effects are only to attract users and visitors. Just normal text with a link to it will produce backlinks

    Signatures are meant for exposing your identity, I think it doesn't have much to contribute in link building purposes.

    With forum signatures it can provide high quality exposure and generate targeted leads to the business that utilizes that space. Also, it helps build backlinks for your site rankings.

    Maybe it will help a little, for a bold signature is easy to see than a normal ones.

    I don't think that readers clicked on sig by being attract by the color or font. Signature link has its own value but color and font doesn't matter at all ecept improving the visibility by being focused. But the presentation bears the quality of sig holder.

    Coloured or bold signature will only increase the visibility; no effects on the backlink for SEO.
