I am so sorry if this is the wrong forum.....
But our vbulletin has been up for over three months now (we've added hacks, and so on) the whole time, but have darn near NO new members, and are such a small board! We are at the brink of boring our few (20+ or less) members of burning out, and don't know what else to do to attract more members. BTW, we are a non for profet forum, and not selling anything......... We are at the point of NEEDING new members (besides spammers) before we run out of funding, and are forced to close our VB forum!
To make a long story short, I recall finding an SEO program that required a one time fee when we started the forum 3 months ago. I didn't think I needed it at the time, for I thought it would only take a month or so to attract new members. But at this point, I REALLY WANT this program and am willing to pay for it to benefit my forum before I am forced to give it up.......... this forum is my "baby" so to speak.
I did searches for this, with many word combinations but have not found it. If ANYONE out there can help me out, I would SO APPRECIATE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
Just in case I should be posting this at vbulletin.com, I will do that there too, but I seem to recall seeing it here.
Thank you!

I've heard great success stories about sites that have really benefited from vbseo. I was one of them that didn't really benefit so much. Parenting sites have a lot of competition, so it can be very hard to get started. You have a lot of big competition such as ivillage, babycenter, babyzone, pregnancy weekly, mothering.com, etc then you also have a TON of smaller boards popping up by the hundreds each day. So, it will be hard to break into, BUT I think if you stick with it and just continue with keeping conversation active, making the boards seem busy, making sure there are content rich articles/posts, your site will eventually grow.
Well .. what i think ... its better to take out some time and work on forums ... make some users ... and make post ... just make the forum look busy ... have links and links in the forums .... once u will have about 10k post ... then go for vbseo or u will find many other like http://zoints.com/ which is free !!
firstly....
Your skin, get a new one... or fix it up.
a christmas skin isnt going to go well all year round, mainly in the december time.
secondly
on your vbadvanced home page, you have ALOT links in the left hand collumn.
Remove All of them and put key category ones there.
i think you have all your forums linked on it.
finally
Remove some of your forums that are irrellevant to your topic.
e.g. What About the Pets! All About Food .
Your aim is a little to broad, are you a baby site or just a place for parents?
its hard to tell.
