Posting in forums should not be considered a work. When you are going to register to a forum it's because you are intereted in it's topics and you want to share your knowledge with other forum members.

You shouldn't think about make money selling your signature links when you subscribed the first time to a forum. That way can lead to make bad posts, and eventually to be banned from that forum.

If you post in forums with regularity, after a few months you'll have easily a few hundred posts. For example, make 10 posts per day and you'll reach 600 posts in only two months. That amount of posts can bring you a good SEO benefit for your sites. But if you don't have any sites to promote, or are unrelated to that forum you can still get a benefit: make money selling or renting the signatures on that posts.

With around 600 posts on forums like forums.DigitalPoint.com you can start to sell the links on your signature. Everytime the sig in a forum like forums.DigitalPoint.com is changed, it will be changed in all the posts the author has been made. So the buyer will get instantly a lot of backlinks to their site.

It depends on the number of posts made and the average posting (number of posts make per day). The more posts you have, and the more average posting you have, the more money you will be able to charge for each signature link.

Example:
The signature space on Digitalpoint.com can store up to 4 links, and a user with 600 posts and 10 posts/day on average can rent each link for around $4/month. But there you can make more money renting other elements too:

• Avatar. Usually you can make money renting/selling this space to place a site logo.
• Recent Blog. Is a link to a blog. Their title is automatically updated with latest blog entry.
• Location. This is only a text space and usually is filled with a site name.

Here is an image showing all those elements over a post of Shawn (DigitalPoint.com founder). He's using only a link on their sig:



For the previous example: 600 posts, and adding 10 posts/day, a user can make money renting all those elements for around $20/month.
