    Hello,

    You haven't done much of anything beyond stock, so there's not too much to critique on here. I would say that you simply have too many forums for the size of your board. Ie, you have 30 threads total in 24 subforums. It's alawys better to start with fewer forums and expand in time when the content is there to allow for them. Otherwise, your site simply looks empty and unpopular.

    I would also suggest that you disable the archive.

    I have contacted my internet provider and they fixed the problem.
    As Brian suggests disable your archive, I would recommended also disable footer archive links,
    vBuletin Default style is using by 90% of vb4 customers so I'm recommended to design new style for your forum.
    Another Important tip is using vBSEO RR's check this thread : Relevant Replacements used by vbseo.com?
    Change your vBSEO Sitemap generator as the settings in this thread : vBSEO Sitemap Generator : Quality vs Quantity

    Brian and Marco,
    Thank you both for your comments, our site is new and we have a lot to improve, so your guidelines are extremely appreciated.
    We will work in every aspect you told me, just a few comments.
    We may have too many forums, I will try to reduce them.
    We are already working on improving our design.
    I will follow your advise regarding to archive, RR and sitemap.
    Thank you again.
    Best regards!

    That's what I am doing, since 7 december that our site started we've been posting every day relevant content, so our visits increased from 0 to almost 500 a day, a good number to us, but of course a small one compared to big sites!

    That's great progress, If you continue posting new threads daily, You will see vBSEO is a great helper for your forum, Now Don't change any other settings or URL formats.

    Thank yo Marco,
    We read a lot before start and our conclusion was that there were many things importants but no one like relevant and continous content to the users.
    I also have to say that we are more than pleased about VBSEO and with your help!!!
