How I got 20% of my traffic back!
So this morning I decided to check and see how my 404 pages worked (should have done this a long time ago) and I discovered that my 404 page was a simple 1 line "Page Not Found" document. No theme, no navigation, nothing but those 3 horrific words.
20.1% of all my traffic resulted in 404's...
And even worse, after looking at Awstats I discovered 20.1% of all of of the HTTP requests to The Recognized Expert Marketing Show resulted in a 404 Page Not Found status.
Shocked again...
So I logged into Google Webmaster Tools just a few min ago and was shocked at what I saw.
I never tried to focus on the keywords "get a number one google rank" but I have achieved top rankings for them (and a bunch of similar terms)!
get number one google rank = 2
number one google rank = 3
Yea they aren't HUGE terms to rank for, but they added about 10% to my overall traffic today.
Thanks yet again vBSEO.
Here is the
vB 3.7 Beta 4 Success!

(Yes, vBSEO still works flawlessly...)
Also, I officially started using the new Prefix system.
(Thank you FightRice for showing me how to remove the prefix's from the page titles! http://www.vbseo.com/f4/vbulletin-3-...-titles-20107/ )
Here's an example from my Internet Marketing Radio Shows section of my site. (Members only vs non members only)
Conversion
by Citricguy on 01-18-2008 at 09:22 PM
So, I started focusing on conversion the other day and wanted to show of what I came up with
Basically I am using vB and vBSEO (on one site) to host a radio show. It has ended up being the best platform I have ever used (obviously. Drupal, WordPress, Blogger, PHPNuke(whoops) Joomla all failed me. :(
So heres what I came up with (before everything was available to guests):

5 Tactics for SEO Success - Jill Whalen
Updates And A Rant
Other than a few annoying issues with the new "Notices" feature and a pesky "aMember" issue everything has gone smoothly regarding the upgrade to 3.7. vBSEO works flawlessly, but the template needs to be updated for 3.7
Now that blogging is added I would love to have an import tool to import things from wordpress (Papali Wailea blog for example) to vB. Eventually I suppose.
