    Hi Ricky,

    Nope - the old links get 301 (Permanently Moved) redirected to the new links.

    The search engines then index the new URL, because you have told them that the content has moved permanently to the new one. It's all seamless.

    AWSOME!

    I have installed VB and a few version upgrades. I also installed a few hacks. How much harder is this to do?

    Installing vbseo is pretty much the same thing as installing any other add on.

    ftp the files
    install the product
    configure/adjust settings.

    Vbseo comes with settings pre-defined, so you don't have to do ANYTHING if you don't want to (other than turn it on). The only difference really is the use of the htaccess file, so make sure your host supports mod_rewrite.
