    Aren't merchandisers on the distribution side of the business? This guy is in Pakistan which would imply he's on the manufacturing site... can't be too many large UK clothing firms with retail outlets in Pakistan, surely...

    That explains a lot.

    Next is one that springs to mind (outlets in a few cities and there is also a factory, so where those outlets sell will be made there, India or Bangladesh), otherwise yes... we just important from there.

    Rather than chasing me as to where I am let's just concentrate on what we are on this website for - learning about and/or promoting our websites?

    Next I'll be back home in the UK and i sincerely hope that the last 2 posters will no longer be curious as to my location but be more constructive on the purposes of us being on this website.

    Regards.

    Of course, there is no magic formula but surely SEO has a big part to play in it?

    Can you tell me some specific steps which I should take as my first SEO steps to start promoting my website? And/or, can you dirext me to the relevant sources?

    I am totally new to SEO but I have learned on this website that this is the key to starting andd sustaining successful early stage and ongoing website marketing?

    Surely when you first started you must have taken specific SEO steps?

    Do enlighten me.

    Regards.

    No, we did zero SEO... We just created things that people wanted.

    Just a thought.

    If you're new, you should go to one of the major UK companies for content marketing rather than spending years trying to learn and getting your site/company penalised (or even banned), whilst your big competitors are already light years ahead of you. I'm not saying don't learn (SEOmoz, Inbound Marketing University, etc), but just don't destroy your company by being cheap (if you care about it that is).

    Please tell me this about your producct 'Thread Avatars'. I can see how it works but if you deploy this product where do you see all the usual/custom icons for the standard vbulletin notifications shown bellow?

    Contains unread posts
    Contains no unread postsHot thread with unread postsHot thread with no unread postsThread is closedForum is Locked
    You have posted in this thread

    Your product seems to erase these vBulletin notifications in addition to the relevant icons?

    Please clarify.

    Thank you.

    The indicators are different... There are locks, box shadow colors, etc.

    1. I can't find any locks or box shadows being used as indicators - can you please send me a screenshot of an example as well as a link to where that example is.

    2. And, is the main script on which this forum is based the vBulletin.com script? If not, what script is it?

    Thanks.

    There is a screenshot where you downloaded it. No, this is XenForo, not vBulletin.
