RE: "So mabe try a keyword sig or 2 or a 100" Hey that is a good idea, I am sure none of the moderators will object if I have a hundred word sig, and I expect that the "sig-bot" will understand and not delete my signature.

RE: "I could not find your sites at all in the search engines ecchi" Which engines did you try? Both Google and Yahoo list it (I just tried them).

RE: "Just curious how you can sell your offer?" It sells well, but I don't ask my members why they join up. If you mean "how do people find it?" then see my last comment in this post.

RE: "Would I really see search engine surfers if I signed up?" What you get is advertising on a search engine, I find this gets me search engine traffic. However it depends on how good your advert is, and as I have found that many people cannot write good copy to save their lives, those people are probably going to get very little out of the deal. Only the "reasonably intelligent" are going to benefit.

Reading through your post, you seem to think that by not stuffing my signature with keywords I am seriously loosing traffic. You have a very inflated view of how good your sig is as a traffic puller. It helps a little, but not much. You will notice that some of the big hitters do not even use their sig for links. To succeed in this business you really need to worry less about your sig as a traffic source and more about other ways of getting traffic. Also you should think a bit more about good board etiquette. The idea of this (or any) board is NOT to spam your sig to get more traffic, that may be an extra benefit, but it is NO reason to do so.
