Zoints SEO is your basic SEO system you can't compare vbseo and zoints seo because they are very differant vbseo is a private supported profesional product which is sold and a price and contains many many many features, zoints on the other hand is much smaller and more basic it provides you with everything you need to help the search engines view your site correctly and easier it holds less load on the servers you run your site on and is only a community product which means that support is limited BUT then at the same time this mod is FREE

so here goes to the great war again that has become normal life

Zoints SEO vs VBSEO

Zoints SEO:
Some features but not many(basic SEO)
less server load
community run
support limited
FREE
--------
VBSEO:
Hundreds of features(pro SEO)
some server load
Amazing support
Costs money

no matter how you put it both are equal it depends how you want to do it if you have a fast and strong server and your not one forwaiting a few days for a solution and you have money then go with VBSEO if on the other hand you are broke and have a server which is not amazing and can wait a few days for a possible solution you should get Zoints SEO!

thats how i look at it anyways but im sure others have they opinion as well lol

Hi there,a few questions pls...

1)Does Zoints SEO supports xcache too?
2)Does existing VBSEO users making the change to Zoints SEO affect any url rewrites?
3)Any noticeable queries differences?

Thanks...:)

1) there is no xcache available with zoints at the moment from what i know of!

2) well both systems are very differant even though they are both SEO's they are not the same system there for the urls may be differant i'm not formillier enough with VBSEO to say forsure but i dout the linkswill be the same!

3) they only real way i can get you to see which is better would be to download this mod and install it on a localhost and test it out always test a mod before you go live to make sureyou know how to use it properly!

zoints specialises with meta tags keywords descriptions link rewrites and sitemaps

Hi!Thanks for the super-fast reply!yes,i'll be testing it on a localhost 1st.thank you for this great addition and your hard work.:)

If it has less server load than vbSEO, I will try it. Thank you very much!

Usually if you have 50 concurrant users+ guest total , it is time for you to move to a vPS.

If you have over 150~ concurrant users + guests , it is time for you to move to a dedicated.

These numbers are for 15 minute cookie timeout.

i run many sites off my own server at home and i find it cheaper than any hostings and easier anyways!

you should all have your own server if your hoping fora good site :D

what about other lang like arabic

Zoints SEO has three primary options for URL rewriting:

1. No URL rewriting
2. URL rewriting without mod_rewrite. Why use this? If you want to insert keywords in the url but don't have mod_rewrite available or don't want to expend the resources (using mod_rewrite is server intensive and slows page generation) then this is a viable solution.
3. The mod_rewrite everyone knows and prefers.

vbSEO has a big price tag.... :D

I would recommend option 1. The available evidence indicates that keywords in a domain name help but that keywords in the page URL have little or no impact on SE ranking. By enabling any form of URL rewrite, you are adding to server load with little or no return.

And the reality is that vBulletin is SE friendly out of the box. Pick any area and do a search for forums in that area. To narrow it down, tack vBulletin on to the end of the search query. Then look at the URL structure for the forums in the search results. How many of the top forums are using URL rewrite?

That said, there are several other reasons why I think Zoints SEO is helpful and it's for those features that I have it installed.
