Digital cities … head South!
If you want to live in a “digital city,” you might want to start looking to the Rocky Mountains or south of the Mason-Dixon line. Look at, Florida. Arizona. Colorado. Southern California. According to the Folsom, Calif.-based Center for Digital Government’s 2006 “Digital Cities Rankings,” these regions are home to some of the most technologically astute municipal governments in the country.
For largest cities (250,000 or more residents), the winner was Corpus Christi, Texas. For cities with 125,000 to 249,999 residents, Alexandria, Va., and Madison, Wis., tied for first place.

As far as forum signatures and blog posting, I still believe this is a valid way of driving traffic as well as increasing exposure to fellow relevant webmasters, but this is only so if you contribute quality info. When SEO’s spam with poor quality information purely to advertise, they’re likely to be deleted. Also, most of these areas are set up to not allow link juice to pass from your link. Therefore, it’s only worth the traffic, and that only comes from good content. San Francisco Family Lawyer
