Congrats on the great SEO!

#0, by jasonrenshaw, 07 August 2008 01:38 PM

Hi there,

I've made a couple of requests for improvements elsewhere, so thought I really ought to point out something about Lefora that has been really great so far - the excellent search engine optimization.

You've done a really great job with this. After 2 months or so, with 130-odd members and 600-odd posts, my forum topics have been appearing on front-page Google and MSN searches all over the place, and the Headlines page has already hit a Google page rank of 3. On my previous (phpbb) forum, it took six months and five thousand posts or so to get the same page rank, and much poorer results in terms of search listings.

So while we're all in here asking you to fix or add new things, I want to say that what you've done with search engine optimization is really encouraging! Great stuff.

Best,

~ Jason

Thanks Jason, that means a lot to us. We think search engine optimization is important for communities to grow and have spent a lot of time putting 'best practices' into lefora. We're constantly improving our site's architecture and will be releasing a directory soon, which should help improve your seo as well.

Find me answering questions on support.lefora.com or howto.lefora.com

I can attest to this. I just created my first forum here at lefora a couple of days ago and in just a few days, Google already recognizes my forum and I think yahoo is begining to as well, albeit keywords has to be more specific compared to Google.

For a forum made by foreign nurses for foreign nurses visit: foreign-nurse.lefora.com

Very encouraging.

I am debating between php3 and Lefora. I like to be able to do SEO work myself, instead of taking a black box not knowing what to expect, although it maybe a pleasant surprise.

I was wondering if there are any abilities out there for me to do hands on SEO, i.e. access all backend files through FTP?
