    Make it readable, make the colours match the signature, try not to make it too big or small, please don't put a Stroke on it though that usually doesn't work, mabye an outer glow or shadow... lots of ways :) Look for some tutorials in the Tutorials section

    Thats totally wrong, soft light text looks awfull and custom fonts are ugly.

    Stick to default fonts imo, i barely ever go wrong with default fonts. Just make your text interesting and if nothing works, just forget about text and dont add any.

    No.

    IMO, text on the sides, or in corners is horrid. Try to have text near the action/Focal Point. If you have text near the sides, it creates another focal point.
