If you intended to link to what looks like a blog for your business, it worked.

Wait--are you allowed to link to your own website in your signature?

From the SDMB Registration Agreement (http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=423183):

Do not post spam, including but not limited to advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes, solicitations, offers to trade or barter, charitable appeals, or other messages primarily intended to promote a cause, venture, organization, event (except Straight Dope-related events), website, or other entity or activity, whether or not money is involved. Do not post spam in your signature or send it via the SDMB's "private message" feature. We allow exceptions for worthy causes (in our sole opinion) if you obtain prior permission from a moderator or administrator.

Rilchiam, under our current rules, and in line with how we've enforced this rule in the past for other members, unfortunately, you may not link to your site in your sig. You may, however, link to it in your profile.

It's been allowed in the past, but lately they've been cracking down. I, um, hear. ;)
