Does The Color Of Your Signature Link Matter?

Many online forums offer space at the bottom of each post for their members to advertise in. These spaces are called signature files or signature links. One of the best uses of a signature link is to promote another website or online program. These links can be dressed up to appear in different font sizes, colors, and fonts. Does the color of your signature link matter?

Often people change the color of their signature link text to something bright like red or magenta. While this can attract attention, because many people are used to a standard presentation as far as internet links go, they may not recognize them as links and may just see them as colored text. If that is the case… they may never click on them because they don’t realize the text is clickable.

The best scheme to use for signature links is keep it the default blue color, but make it bold. This will also help it stand out from all the flashy colored signature links too.

    Yeah, I agree that if they’re not in the usual blue color, then there is a tendency for people not to click on them because they didn’t know it’s clickable. One good way too is by putting an underline in them
