Forum seo question - GoFuckYourself.com

Dirty F · 08-20-2007, 10:09 AM

When google spiders my forum it doesnt index the posts but it does index ALL the members. Now i like to see this the other way around obviously. I didnt have this problem with phpbb but now with vbulletin it always happens. I installed Google maps, seo plugins, you name it but no matter what i try it simply wont index the threads.

you have to name the threads right so you see the right keyword in the title. also simple modrewrite can help ;) sorry if you have all that already

Use robots.txt to disallow low quality pages like the member pages etc.

It takes time for google to deep crawl pages, focus on building relevant deep links into your forum and focus on improving your internal link structure to put more weight and emphasis on the most important and content rich sections.

Whats the url?

OG LennyT · 08-20-2007, 10:15 AM

should stick with phpBB - new version is out
