INTERNET MARKETING

Hi All!

I've seen some creative signatures here that people have done without paying to get the "image" in their sig.

What kinds of things work best to get attention and get a good click through?

I'm trying out a new one right now :p We'll see!

Thanks

Josh

If your signature can get attentions then it will get more clicks, be as creative as possible, just don't break the rules.

What are the explicit rules besides not having affiliate links?

NEW SIG FILE RULES

(1) Maximum length of sig file is 5 lines which includes any blank lines used for spaces.

EDIT: War Room members are allowed up to 6 lines.

(2) You are only permitted 1 color in your sig file, this can be any color so long as it's black (hyper links can be blue as they come up this way on the board)

(3) Sig files may only be written in the normal standard font size.

(4) You may bold or italicize but that's it.

You cannot have color texts and also the font cannot be too big, just the normal size font will do.

  Clear, centered text that states a compelling reason to click works well. Also include a call to action.

  No signature is effective to those of us that have signatures turned off.

@WiseWarrior1: Check these out.

Question about signature rules

I also filtered the Main Internet Marketing section using the string 'signature rules.'

Feel free to use your own search strings. There are lots that you can find by using the 'Search' feature of this forum.

I find that if you give good information to people in their threads, it catches readers attention and almost automatically they'll check your signature out. This is because it's obvious that you're knowledgeable and you know what you're talking about, so you probably have some awesome stuff to offer. But let me tell you, the $60 for a picture in your signature is WELL worth it.

Beside posting a catchy sig, I think the more important is post something that is worthy, when people find your posts useful they will check out your links,

  Try and test - there may not necessarily be one single answer to this. Try, test and discover what works for you over time.
  
  Keep making valuable post. Contribute to the community. Help others.
  
  Salsey sigs are easy to do. But if you add value to your post, that's when people are going to click on your sig a lot. Whom do you feel attracted to - people with shallow posts or people with deep, helpful replies? Those who you attract will click your signature with a much higher probability.
  
  Thanks

Decent text with good image( not flashy) will be the most effective signature in my opinion.
