Well most people say that a great way to advertise your site for free is through your signature on forums that you are active on. would you agree that its a true statement?

I'd agree it's a true statement to some extent. It takes a little bit of care though. You have to find a niche that's close to yours to participate in...but it isn't yours. For example, I own a writing site. Participating in photography communities, maybe certain book fan sites (ie. Harry Potter), or with a signature link would be good. Going for the same niche would not be good. If I participated in another writing community with my community in the signature, this would more than likely rub a few people the wrong way - like walking into an Apple store with your Linux penguin t-shirt on. You might not get kicked out, but you're going to get a few evil glares...

Yeah it depends on the site your posting on. A link to a gaming site on a Legal site isn't going to get that many clicks but a link to a specific game on a gaming site would do much better.

It's true.

But the better thing is that if you have a nice niche website that people talk about for you.

So your advert isn't just limited to your own posts and at the bottom of your messages also limited to the time you have to post. Instead if your website is useful other people will post it in the message body and talk about it across many forums - even starting threads about your site - now that's powerful.
