Recomend a portal for Vb?

Im getting tired of vbadvanced. Id like to try something different with my newest forum. I also need something that is not difficult at all when it comes down to coding. Any recomendations?

Why not use wordpress? Excellent for SEO and easy to manage.

Thats 3 for Wordpress.

It's easy to build templates with, works great, and has a huge list of plugins, support, and info.

Re: Recomend a portal for Vb?

Last I heard the wordpress bridge wasn't very reliable... of course, this was a while ago. How is it now? Does it work well with 3.7?

Re: Recomend a portal for Vb?

I have a question..I see the advantages of having blog as portal..But would it hurt the seo if had it as say a subdomain like blog.site.com or be better Seo wise with it as the protal?

I am liking the blog idea :sleep:

Re: Recomend a portal for Vb?

Mustang Evolution is a great site....what a solid and simple design. Did the site owner put it together himself/herself?

I think Rocket said it was designed by the same group that is doing his site.

Re: Recomend a portal for Vb?

Mustang Evolution is pretty sexy, I have done work for Brent before. IMO he is a good dude, where do you think i got the idea for my welcome header/advertisement block?

This is part of the forum game, finding things you like on other sites and interpreting them for your own site...

Re: Recomend a portal for Vb?

So, has anyone made the switch from vBadvanced to WordPress lately?

I'd like to see what challenges you faced OR what a relief it was to switch.
