Hi guys,

I am seriously planning and thinking in buy the VBSEO software but before I want to know what do you think about this Mod-Hack (Software) ? is this really helps to put in better place my site in google ?, I really need that.

My forum have 3 years on line and I can?t put it in the first pages of google, so really I am desperate.

www.all-reefs.com

Also are ther other benefits to have it installed ? the cons of have it ? is the configuration difficult ?, I read the other time that if I install VbSEO in my forum after that will be very difficult to install any other mod and can be problematic with my Data Base, is that true ?

Is the software worth that price(cost) to buy it ? if I install it and for anything I have a problem with it, can I uninstall it ?

Thank you very much and all the comments will help me a lot to take the best decision.

Mario

This has been debated many times in the past here and some say yes, and some, like myself, say no. It's a personal choice.

Hi again my friend Boofo,

Yes the problem that I see is I think VBSEO change a lot of things in my forum like the URL addresses, that is a big contra for me, but I am not sure if this help a lot to put my site in the first places in Google, if yes I will buy it with my eyes closed, but I think that is not for sure.

So you don´t have it, right ?

Thank you again!

I don't use paid hacks. PhotoPost was an exception. There are some that will tell you VBSEO works and some that will tell you you are wating yout time with it. Like I said, it is a personal decision. I believe there are other ways to bring in traffic without having to install things that will end up being a headache in the long run. But that is just my opinion.

Yes I know that maybe are different ways to bring traffic, like I told you I am a little desperate to put my site in the first places in google because I love so much my forum, but you are right this mods could be a problem for the future.

SEO alone cannot bring your site onto the "first place" on Google. Content is what does. Even if it does get up there, if there's no content, no one's going to come back.

mariocaz · #7 03-04-2008, 04:35 AM

What do you mean about "content" ?? content are the posts and the threads ? or what else?

Sorry for my stupid question.

Dismounted · #8 03-04-2008, 04:40 AM

Content = articles, threads, posts, etc.

Mmm ok, I have a lot of good content in my forum that is the real strange thing that I can´t put my forum in a good position in Google, because sometime appears in the 3th or 4th page and then I can´t find my site with the same words that I used to do the search and find it.

I found it a bit of a killer on my server's resources tbh - currently looking at the reasons why...a lot of queries get run in the "out the box" install and quadrupled my server load...

Nulled some of them - but there are parts of it, like the analytics (google) that killed the board last night.

Get vbseo sitemap (free from here I think) and upload it to Google as a first step.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
