Hello,

Sorry for the late reply, I reviewed your website,

Here is my suggestions :

• Try to use a forum url structure either with www or non-www (I suggest you to use non-WWW coz WWW is deprecated) >[How to] Setup www.yourdomain.com or yourdomain.com (www vs. non-www) - With .htaccess 301 redirects
• Try To replace vBSEO Relevant Replacements with built in vBulletin Heading tags : VB4 RR's?
• Try to use Robots.txt (Here is an example : robots.txt - 1 KB )
• Try to Validate all of your style pages (Forumdisplay , Showthread etc ) [Invalid] Markup Validation of http://www.supercars.ro/forum/provocari/220-renault-clio-110cp-vs.html - W3C Markup Validator
• Try to use a CDN service (like MaxCDN.com) using vbseo CDN feature.
• Try to submit your website in Directories like DMOZ and Yahoo directory.

Good Luck.

Thanks for the advice.
- I think it's ok now - forum url structure either with www

- I use Robots file but without this:

User-agent: ia_archiver
Allow: /

User-agent: Slurp
Crawl-delay: 10

Starts like this:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /archive/
Disallow: /lo-fi/
Disallow: /general-announcements/
Disallow: /faq.php
Disallow: /calendar.php

- The vBSEO Relevant Replacements ... that nothing happens after I change, something does not want to work.(the link structure is the same, is not like here on vbseo www.vbseo.com/f22/bla...etc.html )
- Many of the errors are displayed because (Like Button - Threads Facebook) is activated...think I eventually disable them.
-And the link's inclusion in the DMOZ directory is very complicated, I try and fail a few years, probably only enter only those who know someone in dmoz, otherwise it's pretty hard to get here, not everyone has access here.

have you placed the vbseo relevant replacements variable in showthread and forum display templates ?

there is nothing you can do about the built-in Facebook like button , you can disable that or use THIS CODE or leave it as it is.

One of my friends website has got accepted at DMOZ , and he didnt have any friend there. his website is about tuning Cars.
First You should go into the related categories and then press submit your site.

have you placed the vbseo relevant replacements variable in showthread and forum display templates ?

Certainly yes.
VB SEO Control Panel-->Relevant Replacements
I check the 'auto' placement check box.
And I put this and Save(the config.php file is rewriteble 0666)
Forumdisplay :

<h1 class="relevant_replacement">[forum_title]</h1><p class="relevant_replacement">Below you will find a list of discussions in the <b>[forum_title]</b> forums at the [bb_title]. The [forum_title] forum [forum_description]</p>

Showthread:

<h1 class="relevant_replacement">[thread_title]</h1><p class="relevant_replacement">This is a discussion on <em>[thread_title]</em> within the <b>[forum_title]</b> forums, part of the [parent_forum_title] category; [first_post_20_words]...</p>

Anyway thanks so much for help, I would have liked to fix up and stuff with button ... Like you only have errors(What did you say above, not helpful ... I have the same errors) ... that still is a potential source of new users and the Facebook platform.

Its my pleasure to help you

I mean have you placed this variable : <!--VBSEO_RR_1--> (or 2 or 3) in Showthread/Forum Display templates ??

and please note that before placing these variables you should remove the built in vbulletin H1 tags from your forumdisplay and showthread templates.

Please try to ask a HTML/vBulletin expert if you cant.

Goodluck.

I'v placed this variable in: <!--VBSEO_RR_1--> in Showthread/Forum Display templates(Top top boxes).

I just followed these instructions From Here and nothing has changed, so I leave the away, is too complicated.
