how much does the average 'pure' sigwhore make in a month?
 

assuming he/she is intelligent, yet has absolutely nothing to do with the industry (in other words, a 'pure' sigwhore)? will a sigwhore speak out and let us know the real numbers?

my brother is doing his Masters in History starting this September, we joked about him becoming a sigwhore to supplement his meager income the other night :glugglug

its not that bad when you think that the buyer is really taking the risk for uncontrolled quality.

I'd say they make $50-$500 depending on the factors.

Not bad for a small button

meager income? I seem to remember you said once that your brother works for you. Are you running a Canadian porn sweatshop? :winkwink:

if that is all you did, and you hit up at least 4-5 boards, you could make $1000-1500 easily...and that is the low end

I am not even trying this month really with lensmans thing and I am already at about $240

and take into consideration that other boards pay you to post, and also pay you to fly their sig...there is another nice chunk of change

you thinking about someone just buying your sig

think outside the box man....pay per post is the way to go

he hasn't worked for me in almost 2 years... he's a full time student these days :)

I think the realistic range for an unknown sigwhore who didn't use a postbot and had a life to live as well would be $500-$700 a month. :2 cents:

Pay per post is a good concept, however the quality of the posts and just plain pointless posts come up in abundance from some.

I'd hate to invest in payper post and watch the person toss up shit replies and smilies.

i will be making that on this board a alone this month

there are TONS of other boards that PAY YOU TO POST......

once again, think bigger people....a sig whore doesn't just hit up GFY

there are rules to the pay per post thing...the responses have to be a certain length, and no bulk posting

What other boards do you hit? All webmaster boards

this is my main board, then pj's and np, sometimes jbm, and occasionally op

can't say the names here cause it is against the rules...but you get the idea

and yes, all webmaster boards

how many hours a day do you spend posting?

i don't know really...i never have added it up....the boards are always on the desktop....i post in between work stuff mainly...like between this and my last post I approved 400 fhg's for my tgp...now they are autothumbing

if it wasn't for automated scripts I would spend way less on the boards...rofl

I really think there are easier ways to make money

Somebody is interested in me being their sig whore, going around to various boards and posting to anything to do with design, as well as go on boards and post various announcements on diff boards.

My question is, how much should I charge so I am not getting ripped off, Im just looking for a fair estimate.. I plan to spend alot of time posting for him... quality posting.

True...I post to kill some time.and my sig pays for my beer :glugglug

If the person is intelligent and working for the long term, I'd say about $2000-$5000. It depends on personality though... stuff like a sense of humor would greatly add to income :glugglug

The factor is who will invest in your sig and how much you can post. Pay per post it the route to go. Unless you get a nice chunk that only takes your image spot and leaves you with text lines to sell off.

Well in my opinion, I would say 3 or 4 hundred and that would be atleast 2 k of posting

Agreed.. and I don't even drink beer :)

You make alot less comapred to if you used your time actually working.

what other boards

Depends, $800 to $2000 a month easy if you factor in recurring.

for that kind of money the poster better have a fukcing personality.

i can only think of a few here that are worth that kind of miney.

2 offhand

juicy

aaronm.

and theyve been here for a long time building.

quiet, in order for him to command big money for his sig he'd have to have a certain amount of posts to his credit - unless he's using your nick :))

BTW, it's friday night & I have 150k images to file... Can you drink one for me?? :glugglug :drinkup

haha, that's always a possiblity. i will definitely drink one for you :)

Gracias :) You always come through for me :)

You should be able to make $10/hr without trying hard and without having any reputation or experience.... more if you are good...

But that's kinda stupid, since submitting galleries will make you double that... but there are some skills and investments needed...

If you evolve past tgp submitting, sky is the limit....

I'd say the adverage is about 100$

Above adverage ... 1000-2000

celebs ... 5k+

i you get paid 30 cents per post and want to earn $500- $700 this month, you will have to make about 2k posts :eek2

recurring? :eek2

It sounds funny when sig whores say "think big!"
