Well I'm about to launch a new forum and I always make this decision during the final stages of my site launch. To vBSEO or not to. To this day I haven't yet. ANyone got any solid testing data they've done or personal experience they've had that they'd say makes vBSEO worth the price? Thanks, - George
I've used VBSEO on 2 different forums. After I installed... Site 1: Before - 660 uniques a day Site 1: After - 1500 uniques a day Site 2: Before - 400 uniques a day Site 2: After - 800 uniques a day The uniques continue to climb as well. Question is: Why wouldn't you install it? What's the downside to it? There is definitely upsides to installing it.
Because it costs $11 less than a full owned vbulletin license and the code is encrypted But thanks that's the type of numbers I'm looking for. Those numbers justify the price IMO.
But it dint helped my new site i have very fast growing forum hostreveals.com , after using it my index pages reduced but i think google pay again index new links , i,am planning to remove it
For every post saying it helped there are many others that say the opposite. Check out this thread George... http://www.vbulletin-faq.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1538 There are free alternatives to vBSEO.
yes that link is intersting, but with out spending lot we can rewrite links static, if u whant to try i can give u full steps.It is dont diff but u must do very carefully.
I'm using this and its already getting more spiders crawling my site. This is after only 12 hours. I just hope all the pages start to get indexed and the people start rolling in!!
I've heard differing opinions on this, including at the vbulletin forum itself. It seems that with good, short URLs it almost doesn't matter. Then again it makes me wonder then just how different a URL is that looks like teaching.org/math-class-algebra-exam.html is versus teaching.org/showthread.php?t=1253343427 This is a very good question. The big difference off the bat is that the latter requires no real maintenance. I'd probably have a cow if my VBSEO broke, it was sold and then support wasn't good, etc. It's a toss up and wonder whether it's worth it to handle my 35K posts.
use vrewrite and H1 for forum topics and you will be fine.....then buy PR7 link for 150 bucks and you will be much better than with vbseo
Not worthy, the plugin is more expensive than the application itself. If you spend some times on Google, you will find a better alternative to it that is free! But, if you are too desperate, go for it then...
We can argue if it is better or not and does not have as many functions as vbseo but it is free and is rewriting urls just like that expensive thing called vbseo ! http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=182
That thread was removed because we had quite hot pro et contra debate .... anyway we can make another one here
Nothing beats vbseo vwrite? doesnt do 10% of the things vbseo does Talk about search engine rankings? well vbseo rocks get some orignal content on a forum and install vbseo and you will be rolling in a few days google loves it and so does yahoo and msn I have vbseo on 2 forums I hate the price but its still worth it and as far as buying $150 worth of links is concerned that will prove wrong in a few days when vbseo 3.0.0 RC4 is released I dont want to argue with those who dont actually have an idea what vbseo is all abotu so if you havent read through things it does please dont try to make a point here
