google indexing forum

I just added a forum to my site. I added the link to sitemap.xml that is submitted to google. Do i need to do anything else to have google index the new forum?

 

yeah you're good, should be fine. It'll probably be crawled in one or two weeks

 

if you use vbulletin try VBSEO they are 2 version Free and $$$
it change all php file to HTML

 

yea thats a definite i've used that before and works like a charm

 

my forum is phpbb?

 

let me see if there is any mods for phpbb
