What does this plugin do?
It automatically increases your search engine traffic for long tail queries, by embedding the actual search terms that people use to find your site in an auto-updating tag cloud on every page.
This is one of the plugins used by SEOforums.org - the #1 SEO forum in google!

~VB Staff Comment:
Please note that this modification adds a link to one of three of the developers sites to the footer of each page.
I don't see any reason to uninstall it as a matter of fact if this plugin essentially made tags in posts instead of the spammy little boxes that are sometimes left behind, I would be way more satisfied with this.
Because I no longer want it? vBSEO is doing a fine job for my SEO work. It's just added text on the screen that's not necessary.
I got this message in my email this morning, what does it mean?

Its a bug, if the search term used to find your site contains a backslash, it doesnt work. Refreshing makes it all ok, but thats obviously not ideal.
Ive got a bug fix for this coming out on Monday or Tuesday (Ive been fixing some other stuff in my other plugins this week).

Awesome thank you. I am also having a pageination issue. If I go under 'search keywords' the page is stretched out very far due to having 97 pages of search terms. I got a huge boost once I installed the vBET software- is there anyway you can stop this from going on and on and on? let me know if you need a print screen if you don't understand what I am talking about. Thanks, I love this plug in!

LOL - I hear ya, the new release is actually primarily aimed at that problem. I checked mine the other day on seoforums.org and had over 1500 pages... its about a mile long!!
Should I be banning the single digit number searches? Like "5"? or "2h?" I am assuming these are crawlers of some sort. But then I got to thinkin' (I do this a LOT) that maybe someone will not land if the put in "5 star bulldogs"? Because 5 is banned?

The last new option in the next version is "minimum query length", which will be set by default to 3, so any searches with 3 or less characters would not be recorded.
its a roundabout way, but will solve that problem.
also - if you have any of those random keywords, like 0h that have creeped in, just delete them using the keyword search or keyword delete tools, they wont come back now after installing the new version.
