Which is the best placement according to you all ?
/forum directory or in root and why ?
/forum or /forums works best
/ (root) is best option
Doesnt matters (both above works perfectly fine)
I am unsure.
This is a discussion on Forum installation in /forum directory or / (root) within the General Discussion forums, part of the vBSEO SEO Plugin category; Which is the best placement according to you all ? /forum directory or in root and why ?...

I voted /root but really depends on the site. Say, you have a portal with different main areas, you might want to separate those into folders:
- /blogs/blog_related_content_here
- /articles/article_related_content_here
- /forums/forum_related_content_here
That simply gets your site more organized. And *may* have a SEO value, as long as you remain consistent. The same principle occurs on vBSEO hierarchic URL settings:
-/forum_topic_A/forum_topic_A_content_here
-/forum_topic_B/forum_topic_B_content_here
In vBSEO.com's case, since the core of the site is the forum, we've opted for having it all at /root.
