Frankly, there just aren't many worthwhile blogs focused on medical manufacturing items like "bioprocess containers." With that said, I'm not sure I agree with creating a "flashy" signature; I think one the communicates experience and expertise has worked better for me.

In the past, I found forum interaction to be difficult. Now, I joined three or four different forums around my interests. I've learned a lot, received more, given back and the rest is history. In this process, you may pick up some readers and traffic, especially if you wiped up a decent signature. Thanks for sharing.

I tried creating and moderating a forum once and the things is they are a LOT OF WORK! I ended up having to scrap it. Definitely was great for traffic but I couldn't sustain it. Next time I try ti set one up I'll get some moderators setup ahead of time. Great post. I tried creating and moderating a forum once and the things is they are a LOT OF WORK!
