In this article we are going to look at the powerful method of marketing with signature files. For those who are unfamiliar with this concept, signature files are attached to things such as emails and forum posts and tell a little bit about the person sending the email or posting in forums. Within this signature box we are able to show a little advertisement and a link to our website. This way we can generate a large amount of free traffic over time. Let's take a look at how this is done.
When a person signs up for most forums there is usually an area where they can change their profile and update their signature file, also know as a resource box. This is where we want to put a little advertisement about our website. For example, you could say, "My economics professor always told me there was no such thing as a free lunch... boy was he wrong. Find out how I took charge of my financial future at WEBSITE URL."
Now to make this even better we can use a little html to hide the url.
My economics professor always told me there was no such thing as a free lunch... boy was he wrong. Find out how I took charge of my financial future at => WHAT YOU WANT DISPLAYED
Once this is set up within the forum preferences it should be displayed every time we post on the forum. This method will take some time to work but will have a great affect in the long run. Also, we have to make sure to post legitimate topics and replies. If we post simply to advertise our website many people will become upset and this whole form of marketing will lose its effect.
Another way to use signature files as a marketing tool is by attaching them to our emails. To do this we just need to look for the signature file setup within our email program. Once this is found all we need to do is follow the steps listed above. With time and persistence, this method will really pay off.
To our success,
Andrew Leone
