GamingVidz.com vBSEO case study

I'll continue to post my results from the installation of vBSEO here, or you can find the entries at my blog: ChrisGuthrie.net - Increase Your Forum Traffic

Week 3 can be found here

Overall, still no major changes.

Looking forward to following your progress.

Week 4 is up.

I think that msn is taking off all my dynamic url's but not replacing them with the updated ones. Then again, msn is a terrible search engine so I'm not too worried about it lol.

I'd like feedback on my Week 4 post, so if you can provide it at my blog or here it'd be appreciated

week 5 is up now!

I just posted my results from week 5 and I'd like some feedback this time...

This was a crazy week with over 7,000 extra links for Yahoo; however, Google slipped over 3,000. Any thoughts?

Seems like typical Google fluctuations. Track it over the next 2 months to see the trend. I'm sure you'll see the 3000+ drop in Google rebound and surpass previous highs.

Ok. I was pretty excited about the Yahoo upswing. I also am doing monthtly visual graphs of where my traffic comes from as well.

Thanks for the feedback

Week 6 is up. Check it out here. There was not that much movement this week.

Week 7 is up now and I have seen some outstanding results from Google.

Ready the update over at ChrisGuthrie.net

*Hint - There were some HUGE numbers this week from Google*

Wow its even higher now

Results 1 - 10 of about 101,000 from gamingvidz.com. (0.23 seconds)

I didn't post week 8 here, but check out week 9!

I just saw another 73,000 increase in results for a site:gamingvidz.com search on Google to 170,000 results!

I started out with just 34,300 results before installing vBSEO, but after 9 weeks I'm now at 170,000. (And I just looked again today and it's gained another 7,000 in one day!)

Check out my blog to see more info on how to improve your forum community.

I've also seen an increase via Google Analytics on the amount of traffic I've received from search engines! (which is exactly why I got vBSEO in the first place)

Thats amazing!!

Yah, I'm still in WA. I haven't looked into any types of confernces etc. for web publishers but I'd love to go to one if there was an event in WA. I'm still about a year away from quitting the day job and running websites for a living (Hopefully).

I'm glad vBSEO is doing so well. It's also doing great on HaloBoards.com as well, check out my other vBSEO review post on it here

Week 12 is up! - Check out my latest update on the three month mark for my forum after vBSEO installation. I've also included graphs from Google analytics that highlights the traffic figures.

Case Study: vBSEO on GamingVidz.com week 12

Traffic from search engines is still increasing by my SERPS seem to have gone down a bit. Perhaps I've hit the peak for SERPS?
