What do you pay a Sig Whore these days?

[Nickatilynx]

Seriously , anyone know the going rate?

Low end , median , top end?

[StreetRacer]

What does the sig whore need to do?

Break legs? Display advertising? Extortion?

[NickPapageorgio]

Platinum Bucks pays $250 for 2 months of my sig at GFY. Then again, I am not a top poster, nor a top sig whore. I post when I am compelled to. Sometimes I post useful info, sometimes a comment, sometimes nothing. Platinum Bucks seems a bit more laid back in their approach though. No minimum post requirements or anything from what I have seen. Mona contacted me a couple months back and asked if I would like to fly the sig in exchange for money. Sure. I mean, if I am posting anyway, I may as well get some free money out of the deal I guess.

[JoesHO]

When I was flying a paid for sig...
I did it for TCG and they paid a flat rate plus a per post fee.

some months I would recieve as much as $1,000.00 or more

never less than $300.00 and I flew for them, for like 9 months or so

I usually averaged around $500 - $600 bucks though

[SykkBoy]

the only time I ever sold my sig, it was to dating gold and they paid me $300 for one month, but that was before the big sig whore craze...

[*KK*]

Here's a direct cut and paste from an email I got last week. I've X'd out the identifiers to protect the innocent from being made fun of lol --

"I would also like to take this time to announce the availability of
advertising within my board signatures. As many of you know I get many
views and pages of replies to all my posts. I have nearly 10,000 posts
across 12 of the biggest boards and will certainly double that within a
few months. So here's what I'm offering...

I can guarantee a minimum of 2,500 posts, a minumum of 100 new threads,
monthly across 12 of the largest boards. I will also actively work to
send new affiliates through my ICQ contact list, which contains over 200
active affiliates. If for some reason clicks/joins are lacking, I have
many resources to make up for it, this will be more than simply a sig
spot. $3,000/mo. enjoys the best exposure available. I'm sure my
accomplishments with the marketing of XXX provide an idea of my
abilities with your company."

[Peaches]

I need to hit Zimm up for a raise! :unsure:

[Raven]

The highest I've been paid to be a sig whore was 5000 dollars....I don't generally sell my sig; but, if someone retains my services, the sig comes as part of the package.

[Hell Puppy]

One of these days, I gotta get me one of those SIG things...
