Related topic: {Facts} Benefits of promoting (joining) a quality paid signature campaign.
I notice the sudden interest of newbie/jnr members wanting to join signature campaigns, starting thread on this board in the past few weeks. I recommend you read this post
Signature Campaign Guidelines (read this before starting or joining a campaign) and in addition to the above topic I'll list some factors you should consider before joining a paid signature campaign irrespective of your rank because the signature you wear speak alot about you on forum.
[1]: Build your account before joining a campaign.
I consider this as the most important factor to consider before joining a campaign. If you haven't built your account don't go joining a campaign because it'll only distract you. It's more benefiting to join paid campaigns as Full member but joining as a self made member isn't that bad also. Take your time to built your account, there'll be more campaign in the future. Don't be in a rush to earn via forum.
[2]: Join a campaign you agree with and not just for the payout.If you're the type that dislike gambling or have no idea on how it works, don't go joining a gamble campaign just because they pay better. It will lead you to spamming and most times posting off topic.
View this as an example.
The user in question is promoting/wearing a gamble related signature but speaking bad against the board isn't that contradicting what he's advertising. Join a campaign you agree with don't join just because of payouts.
[3]: Consider Weekly maximum post required.Avoid campaigns that requires high number of maximum posts weekly, such campaigns does the forum no good and only encourages spamming. Evaluate your posting skills and from your post history determine what your average weekly post is, don't just up into any campaign that'll end you up with rapid increase of post counts without adding value to the forum.
[4]: Join a campaign that encourages quality posting: Consider the bitcoin you get paid as a monetary reward for your quality posting on the forum so as merit is also a reward. The campaign you join opens doors for more benefits on the forum then just earning bitcoin, there are some special campaign managers that if you get accepted into the campaigns they're managing, you can consider yourself as a reputed or quality poster on forum, that should be the type of campaign you should strive to join as such campaign encourages quality posting and I'll help build your reputation as a quality poster on forum.
[5]: Consider boards post count are accepted in.I notice many forum users joins signature campaign without considering the boards they're most active in. I recommend you join a signature campaign based on the boards you're active in, currently I won't join a campaign that doesn't consider Beginner and help board as an acceptable baord for post count. Reason been that that's the board I'm most active and familiar with and enjoying answering questions ask and assisting newbie on the board. Lets say there's a campaign focus on accepting participants only posting on
Development & Technical Discussion baord I won't apply for such campaign since I'm not that familiar with the board and most of my post would be considering off topic as I'll be struggling to meet my post count which might lead to spamming the board and might end up getting ban or removed from campaign.
[6] Know the project well before advertising.
Before you apply to promote any project through signature campaign, carryout some background check on the forum and google too, make sure that project is legitimate and has no past record of scam or it's a scam. Advertising scam project through signature could lead to your account recieving
Red tag.

6: Know your Signature well before advertising: Check whether you are promoting a legit project or not. Check whether link in signature are not malicious or leads to the phishing site. Whenever in doubt, raise concern. Don not keep mum because it is paying you.
Guidelines:
Guide on avoid red tags by supporting already known scam projects[7]: Consider the reputation of campaign manager before applying.CreditAnother factor to weigh-in is the reputation of both the Campaign Manager and the Campaign itself. A Campaign Manager with a track of well managed campaigns could be an important plus to consider, and checking this out may lead to better chances that the campaign does not eventually turn out to be a fiasco in terms of compromised crypto revenue.
Reputed CM:
Overview of Bitcointalk Signature Anti-Spam Campaign Managers[8]:Verify fund available and address ownership through sig messageBefore joining a signature campaign always verify if the campaign manager has the available fund to pay participants for the week. You can do this by searching the bitcoin address posted by CM on
https://www.blockchain.com and if you're in doubt of address ownership you can request for a sig message to prove he/she has control over the private key of that address.
CreditNote if the Manager has provided a unique address to pay for the campaign and if he has enough funds to pay everyone. Ideally, the campaign has contracted an escrow with a good reputation in the forum to be responsible for storing the funds.
[9]: Consider the payout option before applying.
Credit:You also need to take in consideration if the campaign is going to pay you directly on your desired wallet or will it be deposited on their platforms, i.e. for gambling related, there are campaigns that require you to create an account on their site and they going to deposit in directly on that account.
But remember that sometimes, you need to shoulder the fees if you're going to withdrawal it. So if the campaigns say, they're going to pay you .01 BTC, then expect less because of the withdrawal fees. Not unless the campaign manager can work out with the gambling operators that the fees will be shoulder by the company.
[10]: Read the rules of participation in the campaign:Credit:
For easy understanding: Baofeng is saying that you can read the rules on bonuses and read if it is full or closed, basically, he/she meant of those people applying even if the campaign is full. As to bonuses, there are campaigns nowadays that gives an extra bonus if you have accomplished a certain quality post that the campaign manager believes to be exceptional. It will always be on the verdict of the campaign manager as to how they will choose who to give their bonus or position to a certain spot. Just like sending merit to people, sMerit holder chooses what they think a quality post(s).
In addition, I think campaign managers have these unwritten gentleman’s rule about joining one campaign to another campaign. They can skip people who have a signature campaign already as a sign of respect to its campaign manager.
In as much as you participate in a paid signature campaign on forum, you shouldn't forget the main reason forum was created and always try your best to add value to the forum irrespective of what you're doing as you stay on forum.
