We all send emails, right? As a website owner, you will probably send many more than the average web user.
Whether you use a webmail account like Yahoo, Gmail or Hotmail or you use Outlook Express to send email from your own website email addresses. All these programs offer you the chance to automatically add a signature to your outgoing emails.
USE IT!

Make sure you link the site name to your site using a hyperlink.

Remember, sometimes emails get forwarded to others.
