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!
Full description, screenshots and more about this plugin is available here
I have also released a brand-free (gold) version here

~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.
You left in a section of code that puts test keywords into the database automatically ("beatles, rocket, forums" and some others). Might want to comment/take that out.

Never mind. I worked it out by copying that part of the code from the previous version in the XML file, uninstalling and reinstalling. Uninstalling seemed to be needed to zero out remnants of the test searches. So it is OK until a fix arrives, I hope.
Can you please integrate this with vbulletin tags and add keyword moderation to it?
i.e. keywords / search phrases need to be approved by staff, before they become visible. Then they are automatically added to the appropriate threads as thread tags. If threads already have other thread tags, then this method may be less tricky / easy to recognize for Google.
How does this compare to vBSEO and which one would yield the best results?
It's supplemental:

Juan Murientes, Staff member at vbSEO has referred me to a post made in 2007 where they said they were going to include this into their product, but never actually did so as it appearing on 10,000s of websites might be construed as too aggressive to google...
