Default Am I missing anything?

My site is just over a year old. I'm so used to seeing it each day, that I sometimes forget would it looks like to people who stumble upon the site.

Do you see anything that should change? Thank you for your time!

It is hard to give advice on a forum that is doing so well

The one thing I would say is that you should have an alternate lighter skin to cater to those who prefer that type of setup.

You have a great domain name that quickly gets the point of the site across, though a welcome message for guests with some detail would not hurt at all.

You probably should put your focus on search engines at this point, getting your link out so you can pump up the PR and back links.

You have done a great job so far, keep up the good work

This is the information I am looking for! I will start on that this weekend.

This is where I am at a loss. I do not understand the methods of ranking a forum into a search engine. I am starting to get around 2000 hits a month from search engines, but they usually are not of relevance. In fact, most search engine keywords include "topless" or "rear end" because my forum includes hundreds of comments about jeeps being topless, or rear ends, as in rear axles.

Is there a place I can find for information about Vbulletin and the major search engines?
