This hack is a search engine cloaker, it will help you get ranked on search engines.



However, certain search engines have nice protection against cloakers and don't like em, like AlexanderT mentioned so well, so use this hack at your own risk.




I really hope you will appreciate it, this is my first real vBulletin hack ever. Also, I have a friend that won a VIP pass to E3, but he needs to buy a plane ticket which costs $600 and he doesn't have the money, so if you feel generous, a donation would be very nice.

Encouraging him is encouraging me.

Also, there is one thing that is VERY important. When you add words

(fillers,targets,links,titles), use enter to seperate each entry. If you want a bunch of words altogether, seperate the words you want grouped together with spaces.




Features you can expect to see in next release (if this project is appreciated):

- User settable "max words" from admin panel
- Random font color
- Spiderbot logs
- Add random HTML tags



Click install if you install please


UPDATE

There seems to be a bug with editing spider strings from the user CP (vbulletin bug), you will have to edit the database manually

Here's how you could test it:

Add "summit" to your Spider identification strings (for this test)
Activate the Cloaker and everything
Use a spider simulator such as: http://tools.summitmedia.co.uk/spider/ and have it access your forums, it should display a cloaked page's source

nice hack but very unethical when it comes to SERPS... just a warning to webmasters installing this, if a search engine discovers your using cloaking they may remove your site from their index or ban you site from their index forever. please take these warnings into consideration before installing this hack.

How likely is it that would happen? I've installed and and am now a bit skeptical.

never install softwares you can't control the content.. that's the goal of the alert...

any cloaker is not correct if the content is not dynamic... my own version would be to load different content based on thread keywords (with a keywords generator...)

the best thing to do is to redirect the search engine to the /archive/ directory, so the crawler visit the text version of the site, and nothing else.
