Email Signature

I keep hearing that using your email signature as an advertising tool is very effective. People say that putting a link to your site will draw visitors, but will they become customers? When I email friends or people I work with, they already know about my site; they might check it out to see whether I've got any updates, but not more than that. What do you think?

I think this would be most effective in a business email and could be a passive way to cross-promote related products or services. For instance, if you were a domain registrar, you're signature could advertise other services that you offer or an upsell.

The problem which I have with putting my site in my email signature is that this can often lead to the email spam filter classifying my email as a spam mail as spam emails always have links inside them.
