Getting paid for signature space?

[InwardContour]

It seems like I`m so far away.. from getting any btc going on lol.

Faucets suck too.

Yeah, faucets won't get you too far. As far as signature ads, there are accounts being bought/sold in the digital goods subforum. It's sort of frowned upon, but I get the feeling that more than a few newbies have gone that route.

I wouldn't suggest newbies to buy a "higher rank" account at all.
The account seller could get the accounts back at any time in the future (FYI: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0), and also the account could get negative trust and become worthless if the account sale is made public.

I wasn't really suggesting anything. Just pointing out that it's done and that it's frowned upon. But it is allowed. It does take a certain level of trust in the account seller since, yes, they can recover the account by signing a transaction from an address linked to the account. But they won't get very far selling accounts that way.

It doesn't even take that long to "earn" your way up to member status anyway, and in the time you spend getting your rank up there you can learn a lot by reading these forums.

Well, it does take some time. 2 months, I believe, since you can earn 14 activity your first day as a newbie. So, 8 weeks to get to 70 activity (56 is the last level, so still a junior member at that point). I don't disagree though. 2 months isn't that long, and you do learn a lot in the meantime, surely.

The rankings are structured this way (IMO) at least partly to allow for people to get to understand how bitcoin works prior to earning a higher rank.

I think it was more so a direct response to signature advertising programs -- which is why activity is linked to signature permissions (font size, colors, links, etc). Spam ties into this as well.

Just a quick question:

Are posts in the off-topic forum included or excluded when earning from a sig campaign?

I can't say for sure for all of them, but generally, they are included. I have heard of people being banned for spamming when posting too much in Off-Topic, so be careful, LOL.

Can you really make thousands with it?
I'm interested to also do this as I've seen threads buying signature space. and will they also be willing to pay for signatures to other business forums?

No but you can make some Bitcoins
(too much time in activity to those high tiers)
But if bitcoin price goes up could be worth thousands in the future.

I believe so. one reason i am trying to get into it. 1 bitcoin is currently equivalent to $600+. IF it rises in the future one, bitcoin can give me much.

There are usually limits and they don't pay as much as thousands, I don't believe they would allow you to cash out thousands. Also, not much people can manage that much constructive posts.

Most or all of the pay-per-post programs now have a weekly or monthly limit, so for some, the gravy train is over. Indeed, I've seen more than a few people banned (for spamming) trying to crank out posts for signature payouts.

You can make hundreds.  But it is easy to get in trouble by posting too much.  Off topic seems to have become a magnet for people making dozens of marginal posts in an effort to get paid for their signature space.  I have not seen any that pay for other forums but I guess you could ask.

Good Luck!

i kind of like mine blank.

What are the minimum requirements for selling your signature space to advertisers?  I'm curious as to how this actually works and if you actually get paid? All it basically comes down to is, your promoting they're services right?

The advertise to them is actually cheap , Its all about multimedea effect .

If you are looking to make money with BTC than i have to say that Getting paid for signature space is not enough. You can earn a little amount through signature space. I think mining is a better option.

The mining profitability is a lot lower now, unlike 1 or 2 years ago. It is hard to break even for most options.

Not really, i see it as a different things.

In signature campaign you don't need anything besides btctalk account, no need to invest, nothing to lose. It is like a job.
Mining is like an investment, you need a large sum of money to do it, it's risky too, and even if its profitable, it will take a long time.

So IMO it is two different things, and to make money i think signature ads still better than mining

If we're talking about investing, I'd much prefer to buy and hold (and trade a portion to hedge/exploit volatility). Mining ain't what it used to be. Too many big operations inflating difficulty. Run the numbers before you invest in mining hardware....

Not true, mining have much much more risk than signature payment. For example, difficulty suddenly increases a lot, electrical cost suddenly increase, ASICs not getting delivered. It is possible you might never make ROI. Signature campaigns however only require you to post in this forum, there isn't much risk. AFAIK, Stunna 's primedice campaign pays 0.48 max, that is already quite some money.
