    hiya guys,

    In terms of SEO, my video sites (a fight videos one, and a XXX videos one) do quite well. Its pretty easy to bundle in keyword rich content, and to get plenty of links out there etc.

    But I've just setup a Movie Forum using phpbb. I've pretty much done all my modding now in terms of security and anti-spam, but now Im starting to think about SEO.

    How do I control the content of a user generated site for SEO?
    Are there any good SEO mods for phpbb2 you'd recommend?
    Any tips for keywords in the "online movies for free" niche?

    Thanks :)

    btw the forum is in my sig

    awesome, done pretty much every mod they had!

    See the results :)

    http://www.fooq.org

    SEO Friendly urls (I notice DP doesn't use em?)
    Custom Title Tags
    Google Sitemaps http://www.fooq.org/sitemaps.xml
    RSS Feeds http://www.fooq.org/rss.xml
    going to add social bookmarking in a bit too.

    I think within the script thats about all the SEO it needs? I'll try and write up some keyword rich articles to post as stickies too.

    As for offsite, do I follow the same kind of formula as for any site, or is there any particular tips for a forum you'd recommend?

    Thanks a lot!
