not really. It's mostly quantity.... amount of exposure.

If GFY teaches us anything, people aren't always looking for "good representation"... just lots of exposure.

Even bad publicity is good publicity.

But quantity of what? Dont spill it, let the sigwhores figure it out on their own.... No reason to give away the goose.

Maybe some get paid per post? Or have to post an x amount of times to get paid.

some_idiot · 02-02-2004, 12:52 AM

I click on sigs becaue I've never seen the ad before.

CDSmith · 02-02-2004, 12:54 AM

The thing of it is. people can post all the stupidity they want, they can post useless one word posts and single smilies till their brains fall out..... doesn't mean anyone is going to click their sig. When it all boils down, actual clicks on one's sig is what really counts. Do people click your sig? I know by my server logs that mine gets clicked quite often...... so post intelligently and you'll do fine. Post like an idiot and only idiots will click your sig.

The end.

And they clicked happily ever after.

born4porn · 02-02-2004, 12:56 AM

dayum, i don't even have a sig maybe i'm a sigless whore or just a whore roflmfao

Who said they're looking for clicks? They actually want....

oops, sorry Headless, I almost said it

TurboTrucker · 02-02-2004, 12:57 AM

Seeing as how your sig appears 4 times in this worthless post, I can't help but wonder if you are being sarcastic.

I disagree I believe it's valuable for name branding. That's half the battle get people to see the add the more they see it the more it becomes oh so and so company.

NiTe-HaWk · 02-02-2004, 01:01 AM

I click on sigs because it is what I am looking to promote or buy. It has nothing to do with who has it in their signature or the post count they have. The easier it is to find what I am looking for the more likely I am to signup. The sig whores that post 100+ times a day are easier to find so they are more likely to get signups if they have what I am actually looking for.

Branding shmanding. The sig rental only lasts for 1 month. A company can get all the "branding" they want up the yingyang, but if they don't make any sales from the $5k they spent on your sig then they are out $5k, period. Sales are the bottom line for any company. Sorry, that's the way it is. No clicks = no sales.

Nope I still don't agree. You think that if I see a sig 30 times it sticks in my head I can't come back later date and sign up to the program? Companies spend millions of dollars on corperate branding why would this be any differn't?

It's a lot different on a message board. Certain posters tend to build up a certain persona, a certain reputation. Are you really in the habit of clicking sigs of people who are obvious fucking tools? I certainly don't. I avoid them, I don't even notice what they are promoting because they are tools. When someone reputable posts, someone with an ounce of witt and intelligence, I tend to notice more what they are promoting, and if that company or product appeals to me I will click.

Sig advertisement is a whole different animal from your usual "ad spot branding".... people are putting their own name behind what they have in their sig. bid difference than just a paid banner spot.

MetaMan · 02-02-2004, 01:31 AM

i am one of the few non sig whores, i am in a busting mood today.

Even if I've sold my sig space, I can assure you I'm not the whoring type. I'm not going to be posting smiley's all over the fucking place just to get sig exposure, it's never been my style in the 4 years I've been on these boards.

Agreed. I don't hardly click any sigs here but still they serve there purpose.

Corporate identity covers the "in-house" aspects of a company, such as the company name, logo, tagline, and it's visual appearance. To use epiccash as an example we can see that the company name is also the identity name of a sponsor , the tagline is "EpicCash" and visual appearance we think of a banner that gives us siezures.

Hence put into peoples mind of possible promoters where it wouldn't other wise have been known...

exactly.

And I can prove that fact more clearly even, I use the same button in my sig (orange one) that I have in sig swap. My views to click ratio is better when I post it then it is in sig swap. Substantially better.

I guess I'm a whore then but seeing as how Lens owns the board and the program in my sig I'm not so sure he would just buy every random idiot who posts a billion times.

With that being said I noticed quite a few of the people who had sold their sigs for January and decided to go on a big posting streak all trying to raise their prices for Feb and some even got it. I however kept my price the same and only offered it to the one person. I don't do it because I have to have the money and because I want to whore 2000 posts in a month to try and raise the price another couple hundred.

If Lens wants my sig again next month I'm sure my price will remain the same, I'm not trying to take a bunch of money, just a little for my sig and spot and hopefully most of what I post is relevant and makes sense. I'm loyal more than I am greedy.
