Why there is only a few signature campaigns on this section?

I have an opinion that bitcoin's value has moved away from the original community and is now a more serious currency in the world.  This means there is less value to spread around on forums and such.  Just a theory.

Bitcoin has certainly got serious traction and wider recognition in the last few years. But this doesn't seem to have a lot to do with the startup companies that are using or planning to use it. They would still need attention of the general public just like any other startup in any industry that aims to first get into and then remain in the public eye. As the old adage says, without publicity there is no prosperity. And here still seems to be a good place to bootstrap your business recognition and distinction.

because it costs alot of coins to run a decent signature campaign here:
it could cost you 0.5+ btc a week,so you would spend 2 btc+ a month
not every bitcoin company is willing to spend 1.200$ to cover just one advertisement option-signature campaign
as popular as bitcointalk is ,there are many other,cheaper ways to advertise your services:banner ads,text ads,paid-to-click ads,articles,reviews etc.
the key word  is efficiency

The clear statement because not all of the companies is always having a regular capital for giving funding for their campaign. and that is will need a lot of funds. but this is not valid for the campaign is having a large source for their amount or I can say the regular capital.

There are a lot of campaigns active, but not so many with spaces available and for the best paying ones you will need to wait a while to join them.

Personally I think they are great for the community as it can keep people active and improve their knowlege, some do get upset at the amount of spam that some users tend to post just to increase the post count but overall I think it is a plus for the bitcoin community.

You will also find some campaigns that are not listed in the overview.

I think what you mean is there's only few signature campaigns that accept newbie participants because most of the signature campaigns here only accepts from full member up to Legendary, and why is that? It is because the higher the rank the higher chance that their advertisement or signature campaigns will gonna get advertise easily and the higher the rank glamours more others attention. You should get your account into a member by posting in different boards so that you can start to find signature campaigns that is compatible with your account.

I'd be surprised if any of your above options were much cheaper in the great scheme of things. Google ads in particular seem to be horrifically expensive for certain phrases.

true that,Google ads campaigns could be very expensive and I know for sure fortunejack and a few other bitcoin gambling sites were splashing out over 5 btc a month for banner campaigns at almost every btc ad network,too
it was crazy when you just could not find a site without their ads think they had almost 70% share of all the ads shown for 3-4 weeks at one particular period of spring
for smaller businesses,0.5 btc a week is way too much,if you have noticed the majority of the sig campaigns are either gambling,some sort of an exchange or mixer service they have instant return from their clients and possible rebills
planning your ad campaign depends on many factors though,large companies know their TA,they have experienced managers who decide how to allocate advertising funds and meet the targets so I don't think they skip bitcointalk forum as their  ads platform just because they don't know it exists
could be any reason starting from the ease to start a campaign,when you have to get an account,find a campaign manager,escrow funds etc.
maybe,just maybe bitcointalk forum should run their own ads and position itself as a quality advertisement option as well as a source of info,but of course it is up to the owners to decide

I would also say it also depends solely on time factor as not all campaigns will be active at the same time. Its going to be on a rolling basis… Also if you follow the link supplied in earlier page, you will realized the list is kind of extensive with some still active and some no longer active…

Have a look in the altcoin section there are many there that pay out dividends. It is like an early investment so they almost always generous since they want to spread their currency faster and get the good word out.

Maybe the signature campaigners are not interested in the service of the bitcoin related business. It might need more skill.

I don't think there are very few signature campaigns on this section. From the thread where all campaigns are listed if you check you will see that at least 10 signature campaigns are active and enrolling is going on.

His point is that there's probably 100s of companies that accept Bitcoin, how come only 10 or so bother to advertise here.

It's a great question. I think the answer is because most companies that accept bitcoin don't know a significant amount about it it, they aren't geeking out on it so they may not know that this forum even exists!

But you've identified a great opportunity. We could bring those companies in here, more ad opportunities and expand the bitcoin market at the same time. I guess the best unanswered question is what kind of traffic does this site get. If it's 100 ppl a day it may not be worth those larger companies time. If it's 1000 per day we might be on to something.

signature campaign is not the only way to advertising, there are a lot of ways, and to start a signature campaign is not cheap, and after that I think there are quite a lot of company used signature campaign advertising, but sometimes they only advertise for a short time

->Most of the incoming traffic is either due to bitcoin technical support  or simply earning bitcoins on the forum.
->Which is basically 90% of the bitcoin enthusiasts or simply money makers.
->Forum has the best content when it comes to technical issues or bitcoin projects or marketplace.
->The forum is kept as much as "decentralized" as possible which is not the paradigm followed by other bitcoin forums.

This thread is dedicated exclusively to keeping track of current signature campaigns on the forum. The OP of that thread may not be quite up to date, though, so you need to read the last few pages of the thread too if you want to stay informed about new campaigns popping up. And closely watching the Services section could be very helpful if you want to participate in one such campaign.

There are actually a good number of campaigns running if you count alt coin signature campaigns too https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1473156.0

because every business sites in the Bitcoin world is not honest . about 50-60% sites are non-trusted they usually ran away after two to three month . so they are comes for fraud only . but honest site makes advertisement and make user for itself thriugh signature campaign in legit way .

Well the aim of signature campaign is promotion of services and the ways for make promotion is not in signature campaign only, there are many ways is like, Google advertising, campaign society media Facebook,twetter and include put advertising into bitcointalk.org.

I think you have not check properly service announcement section. There are a good number of signature campaigns in this section and it increasing continuously. So I said that there have not few.Main target of a signature campaign is an advertising a site or service for become popular .We are the member help to promote their site. After that it will be stop as they achieved their goal.

I don't think we're there yet but the day is coming. this is still the epicentre of most of the action. there have been a few cases like bit-x/coinsbank where their campaign ended as they took it to the next level but there'll always be a lot of people here so there'll be some type of sig campaign as long as they're tolerated.

You are right but before or i think still now if you are the publisher then google is really the best choice because as you have said they really are quite expensive so their paying rate is also really good
