Seo

I'm reading up on everything I can find regarding SEO. Running VB 4.03. I installed Photopost into my forum dir. I'm wondering if that will be a problem as far as optimizing SEO. I haven't gone live yet so if I need to change it I think I can. I read over at Vbulltin forums that VB4 has all the required SEO functionality already built in such that products like VBSEO are not necessary. Will VBSEO help with Photopost, reviewpost and classifieds? I would like run with an installation\directory configuration that allows me to maximize SEO.

Am I OK with Photopost residing within my forums directory I should I change it now before I go live?

"I would like to reference Vanessa Fox, an ex-Googler and contributor to Search Engine Land :

Google is no longer treating subdomains (blog.widgets.com versus widgets.com) independently, instead attaching some association between them. The ranking algorithms have been tweaked so that pages from multiple subdomains have a much higher relevance bar to clear in order to be shown.

It’s not that the “two page limit” now means from any domain and its associated subdomains in total. It’s simply a bit harder than it used to be for multiple subdomains to rank in a set of 10 results. If multiple subdomains are highly relevant for a query, it’s still possible for all of them to rank well.

Home Depot is one site which has cleared the relevancy bar at Google with subdomains at HomeDepot.com that are actually marketed as individual sites. Take careers.homedepot.com and look into its backlinks, even if this subdomain was on a whole different domain, like HomeDepotJobs.com, it would probably rank just as highly.

So are they saying that in my case I am running PP, RP and Classifieds, if I were to put each in a separate subdomain that it would be unlikely that results from all three would get returned off a single query?

Thanks,

well vbseo will not work over our products in any manner.

You can use your url however you wish.

we have our own seo setting in admin global options and seo urls are contained within our core products.
