You know for someone making an SEO MOD you sure are screwing with people's SEO,

Two weeks after I installed this MOD my forums dropped out of key spots in GOOGLE. After hours and hours of researching code I was able to find out this MOD was the reason.

He is embedding some junk hidden links in the footer.

Code:

$output = str_replace('</body>', '<center><a href="http://www.craiova-online.ro"><img src="http://e-vanzari.net/s1.gif" alt="Forum" border="0"></a></center></body>', $output);

If you want linkbacks that's fine, let people know. The fact that this was hidden (an apparently Google very much de-values your site) you completely screwed up my SEO rankings, so now I'm back trying to recover my positions lost.

Thanks for reporting this mindhunter77.

I am sorry, that should have been just a prank to somebody i know. I mixed up the files.

That also affected my rankings on Google , didn't figure out way until now.
I replaced the file with the corect one.

Also i will release a complete SEO pack for vb 3.7.x .

Once again i am sorry for the mistake

And for everyone's future reference, you do not need a plugin/modification to add these tags to your templates. You can do it with template edits, never install a modification that you do not have to.
