    vBSEO plugs into your forum, and optimizes you for the search engines. What this basically means is that it helps to:
    • get more of your content into the search engines
    • faster
    • ranking in a higher position allowing for the capture of more Web visitors
    We do this by manipulating over 100 SEO factors on your forum.

    While understanding SEO technology can be a bit complex, I can assure you vBSEO is not. A simple 5 minute installation with our default settings is all you need to get started.

    The rest of the options can be explored as you begin to learn more about improving your forum for the search engines.

    I have not viewed your site, but be careful with using AdWords this early. Make sure that your forum will *convert* well. You do not want to pay for visitors that will leave your site.

    If you post your URL, we can take a look and do a basic review for you.

    Thank you for your help.

    My site is LocalCobalt.net

    I see what your saying about Adwords im really not seeing the any gain with it.

    If you want you can create a user name to view all the features on the site or i can create a user name for you let me know.

    Im very interested in VbSeo i think it could help me boost my site in to a very active site, I hope

    Ok - so my first observation is that I don't see anything particularly unique when I visit your site. There is nothing that immediately grabs my attention to look.

    The problem is, I have to *search* to try to *find* something interesting.

    You should create something interesting and highlight it, so people who find yourself don't have to play the search/find game.

    The thing that got my attention on your main page was the Nov. car photo. How can you build on that?

    It's never too early or too late to go with vBSEO At least from what I've read hehe. In anycase your forum I would agree does not catch my eye with anything, in fact when I go to your actual forum I feel somewhat overwhelmed by the amount of forums with the limited ammount of posts. Though the one thing I found interesting was the article on how to install smoked taillights. That's something that if I were a Cobalt owner that I'd want to know how to do. I'd say try building up more on those. I lucked out with my site I'm putting vBSEO on that all the content was put there the first week I started it up Had a huge backing of a local company and got to 1000 members in the first month and a half. My new site will be a new challenge. In anycase there's something you can look into

    Here our local car clubs tend to have stickers that they put on their back window not big.

    "install smoked taillights" - You might make that a big feature on your mainpage.

    Find a bunch of stuff that other car enthusiasts are going to want to check out as soon as they checkout your page.
