    I'd look into a new logo and possibly a more unique template.

    otherwise, after vbseo is installed, along with the sitemap tool, its a big waiting game

    So there isn't a whole lot that I have to do at this point? I wasn' sure if I needed to change anything with vBSEO.

    thanks,

    the only thing that NEEDS to be changed is your license key.

    everything else are purely options. there's 5 presets for URL structure to choose from, and all the rest. you don't HAVE to change anything.

    Would you be willing to give me your suggestions as what to change. I'm sure others would appreciate this also.

    There's no hard "this works - this doesn't". It's pretty much user preference of how you want your url;s to look, and so forth.

    Defaults are all that you need to get started. With the major exception of you URL Rewriting format, other things can be tweaked as you learn more (should you choose to do so, but it's really not necessary to have success).

    If you could check one thing out, I would suggest our Relevant Replacements. Search this forum to find out more about them.
