We've added a new feature to the Lefora Homepage, a directory - this feature has been requested many times on support. Even before we had a directory, we've built lefora so that your forums come up in search engines when people search for keywords in your forum. Now, for new admins starting a forum, they can browse the directory linked from the home page. Or for members looking for other forums, they can find them in the directory.

REMEMBER to assign a category to your forum. There are thousands of Lefora forums that are not assigned to a category (this makes it harder for people to browse to your site or for Google to associate your forum with keywords.) Make sure to go into your Forum Admin Panel and under the 'Settings' tab, select a category that is most relevant to your forum. Then, underneath that, make sure to add a few keywords about your forum, separated by commas. For instance, for the support forum, I might add the keywords 'support, help, forums, lefora, questions, answers'
If you're forum is set to PRIVATE, it will NOT be listed in our category and will NOT be indexed by search engines.
