And what is the difference?

This can be added somewhere in the User CP (Control Panel). A part of the forum you’ll only be able to access if you’re a member and signed in.

Whether they’re nofollow or not, it’s useful. Even if it a search engine doesn’t follow the link, it may index the sig itself if the sig has a good selection of strong keywords. But even if it doesn’t, you could get traffic.

Here’s a few tips when creating a custom signature for your forum profile:

• Don’t have too many links.
• Keep it short. Don’t have too many words. People will just as easily mentally block it out.
• Don’t be afraid to change it. Be spontaneous. If you’re regular enough it may develop a sense of urgency for people to click on it, otherwise they’ll feel like they’re missing out.
• Be provocative. Don’t oversell yourself. Certainly don’t lie. Have truth in your advertising but make it appeal.
• Don’t increase the size of the font. Go with the forum default (as in, leave it alone). If anything make it smaller. The inquisitive will want to read the fine print.
• Don’t point your sig out. Even if you’re answering a forum post and you’re avoiding putting a link to your own webpage, it does get annoying to other forum users seeing someone constantly referring to their sig. Be obscure, not obvious. If people notice your sig, they will respect you more for not going for the cheap grab for attention.
