The vBSEO sitemap is a good product however, (which is a free hack listed here) and ill bet is responsibile for more of the gains people have seen then the mod rewrite portion.

There is alot more to do - and alot of it is off page - meaning link building, which I know your doing brent. The point of my opinions are, that this hack is not worth the $150 and if people think paying that is all you need to do to get ranked well they are very mistaken.

It depends on who you are if it's worth 150 dollars or not.

If you want to be able to control everything from one convient place then this hack is for you. It took me 150 dollars to buy this yes but it took me 5 minutes to have it done.

I do not know mod_rewrite and do not have the time with school and work to learn it.

So money well spent imo.

SEO is very complex indeed - and vBSEO is a very important SEO component for vBulletin powered forums. That does not mean that general marketing principles and other SEO aspects should be disregarded.

Hello

If this hack was about From 30 - 50 $ is worth paying but not 150$ . plus it is closed source code ..

No need to flame. Youve said you dont think its worth the price - now leave it

You dont think its worth it - I do. There are plenty in both camps. In the end Capitalism shall prevail. If enough people agree with you - it will go belly up, however enough people seem to feel it is - so, well - it is

Your post sounds very much like an advert for vBSEO - Please keep it to facts and not salesman text...

Dude, this is not a scam, you must be borderline retarded or something or just don't comprehend anything. There is not a need to bash someones hard work, if you think it is to expensive and not worth it, simply do not buy it. Myself and many others think that it is worth the $150.00 and would buy it in a heartbeat. It drives me nuts to see people bash others work, if you don't like it don't pay for it and go your own way and drop it.

anyway when i say it is scam yes it is .. because this vbseo beta ADS come here and saying it is worth of paying 150$ when they can't pay by them self and come here and say it is worth paying when they can't pay by them self and trying to lie and come here ads the vBSEo and scamming other people and lie that they pay for it .. when they dont. so what that called ? 100% scam and this is anther smart way to scam people ..



i like vBSEO but try to Compare :

vBulletin 80$ Year with Open Source Code almost 6 Year.
vBSEO $149.00 USD Year with Closed source code and Few Manth.


i pay every manth almost $700 for our Server and all the extra we have .. i can pay for vBSEO and other scripts if they have a good price and open source code..


@vBCORE if it drives you nuts then make sure it is me also when i see this vbseo beta Ads tester come here and trying to lie and ads vBSEO and scamming people here ... it also drives #@$#@!$


btw they release the final so why they keep the beta tester ? think about this ..

i say No it's not worth it.
at 150$ a pop, with hidden code. no way would i buy this,
even if i was beta testing i would only do this on a offline site.
what happens when and if vbseo site goes down ??
all your seo links are broken )
not that i wish this to happen, i hope you guys do well and are around for a long time.
but there is no way I'd pay 2 times as much as i did for my license for a mod with hidden code.
IMO dean's does just as good.
in fact what will help more then any seo is an active forum, as stated in post 3 or 4. those sites don't have seo and are ranked very well, whys this ? its because they are active.
if your started your site from scratch, i guess it may be a good idea, if not for the extreme price and hidden code. but really whats the point of being ranked high with no activity..

just my opinion.
and i do notice alot of beta testers saying how great this is,, well ofcorse they have the vbseo staff all over the place. I'm sure one bad remark with lead to not being a (free) beta tester anymore

if i had something for free that i liked, I'm sure i'd say its worth w/e outrageous price too )
