Just recently I stumbled across a site by accident that has really added value to my own phpbb forum. As most people will be aware search engine friendly url’s and meta tags are important for getting traffic from the search engines. Phpbb dynamically generates url’s and these often look like this- www.ultimatehandyman.co.uk/forum1/viewtopic.php?t=1670&sid=27d03f3c4dea83b3ccbef658eb0065bb Code (markup): Now the interesting thing is that you can install a simple mod to your phpbb and the url’s are made search engine friendly, this is the same url after the mod has been install. http://www.ultimatehandyman.co.uk/forum1/2-way-light-switching-conversion-t1670.html Code (markup): This is the first mod that I have installed from http://www.phpbb-seo.com/boards/ but I am currently looking at installing more mods in the next few weeks. The mod that I have had installed to give the search engine friendly url’s is the advanced rewrite mod- http://www.phpbb-seo.com/boards/advanced-mod-rewrite-vf46/ I’m currently spending a lot of time on phpbb-seo as there are quite a few more mods that look extremely useful! These mods should benefit anyone with a phpbb board.
