about programmers..
only those who constantly promote their business in a positive manner will continue making money during these hard times

What You Should Do

Promoting your business on vbulletin.org...

• Post Helpful Comments - your comments are a direct reflection of who you are. I lot of people are turned off immediately by negative comments.
• Create / Submit Helpful Articles - this is a great way to show people you have Knowledge - Knowledge is power
• Create / Submit Great Products - this is the best way to build a clientele and to build your brand - brand is important

Many of the high-paying Buyers and Employers do their research before hiring.
If you lack the above - you are not making as much as you could be making.

Easier said than done. What should be done, is a series of group efforts including the staff at vb.org to help us accomplish these things.

Yes, this is a great site. Yes, vb.org is the ultimate site for programming vbulletin. But now ask yourself this. The same way you said nex can do "better". Do you not see vb.org doing 100x better had they listened to the several requests made? This is all a circle people. You help us, we help you, together we help the overall vb community, everyone's happy. I don't see what's so difficult, seriously.


If it's a matter of 3rd party integrations being suspected for security exploits, i'll be more than happy to send over a copy of any of mine for full inspection. I just don't understand why oppurtunities around here aren't taken. It's the year 2008 and we're still getting the same suggestions as when vb 2.3 was around.
