    Littlewales.com Progress Log

    I installed vBSEO yesterday on www.littlewales.com so starting a progress log to keep a record of things.

    Here are the 1st stats to set a marker:

    19th November (site:www.littlewales.com)
    Google: 186
    Yahoo: 1,150
    MSN: 65


    I also installed the vBSEO Sitemap plugin and going from seeing only 1 googlebot spider on my site, I have had 18 on here today. I have tried the other vB sitemap addons but did very little.

    It's looking very promising so far!

    20th November
    Google: 186
    Yahoo: 2,260
    MSN: 225

    Yahoo and MSN have improved but not sure what is going on with Google especially with 18 GoogleBots yesterday at the same time.

    I'll post more results tomorrow.

    21st Novemebr

    Google: 196
    Yahoo: 3,400
    MSN: 225

    Even though google has added 10 extra links, there are now a good handful of vBSEO links in the results.

    There has been a big jump in the yahoo results but i've not been able see any vBSEO links there just yet.

    No change in MSN.

    More to come tomorrow.

    Hi mate. Good to see things happening for you.

    Are you tracking the SERPS of some of your index, thread and forum titles.

    Great to see the before and after effects, especially after working hard at the onpage things, and appropriate keyword selection.

    Hello T2DMan, i've not heard of that traking tool. I'll add a few titles and see what happens. Thanks for that.

    Not sure if you got my email a couple of days ago but i'll be calling on your services after Christmas.

    22nd November
    Google: 201
    Yahoo: 3,410
    MSN: 1,999

    There was little change with Google and Yahoo but there was a big jump with MSN. Here are the bot reports from sitemap also and the figures look really good:

    SE Bots Activity Log

    Date | Total | Forum Display| Show Thread | Member Profile
    2005-11-19 | 18 | 3 | 10 | 2
    2005-11-20 | 118 | 15 | 72 | 12
    2005-11-21 | 1,149 | 120 | 949 | 35

    This shows a tremendous increase and I'm over the moon so far. I'll post more tomorrow.

    23rd November
    Google: 203
    Yahoo: 3,370
    MSN: 1,999
    AOL: 83

    Not much change today from the 1st three but i've noticed a lot of AOL bots are now visiting the forum and all the listings have the vBSEO URLs so i've added AOL to my list to monitor it as well.

    I won't post more daily results but I'll do this on a weekly basis instead and do some deeper digging with the results to see exactly what the SE have been up to.

    One thing that i've noticed with AOL is that it's only indexing what it finds on the forums index.php (forumhome) page. It doesn't want to go any deeper at the moment.

    vBSEO has 3 tools. 2 of them are free if you have an up to date license at vBulletin.
    • Conditional Signatures
    • Google/Yahoo Sitemap
    Then, they have a 3rd that is available for purchase here at this website.

    Personally, I think you need them all, or at the very least the sitemap and the vBSEO plugin.

    Google listsings are starting to look really good for me

    As sportsoutlaw said, vBSEO is essential and well worth the money. vBSEO sitemap is another incredible tool which I know along with vBSEO has made Google finally take an interest in my site.

    The conditional sigs is also out of this world for working with adsense and not against it.

    The sitemap is created everyday and does its automatic poll to google to come and collect it. Couldn't be easier.

    I'm still trying to get yahoo to get it's txt sitemap but not having much luck with that just yet. Shouldn't be to long now though
