Well done Garala, that's good going.

The 'vBulletin' keyword is a hard one as there are many highly ranked sites out there but I'm sure you'll creek up there soon enough.

Those are quite good ranking for a new forum and that too in such a competitive market.

**Caddyman** · 10-24-2008, 03:50 AM

they are ok rankings but you need to be able to convert when you get a hit, that is going to be tough with a small forums with 0 posts and little posts in the sections...

**Brandon Sheley** · 10-24-2008, 04:42 AM

it isn't a new domain, that's helping

btw, why don't you remove the "powered by vb" ?

**Yogesh Sarkar** · 10-24-2008, 08:18 AM

I guess since Garala is trying to rank for vBulletin keywords, maybe powered by vBulletin in title would help?

**Cerberus** · 10-24-2008, 08:44 AM

Isnt this the one brandon sold? Just curious

**Brandon Sheley** · 10-24-2008, 09:55 AM

yup, it's the one I sold
well, that is fine, but I would still remove it.
The point of removing the powered by, is not to have the same thing on all your titles.. it could be 'free vbulletin forums" and it would still be bad to have the same text on all title tags

Ahhh so that is why has such high rankings so quick LOL

**Garala** · 10-24-2008, 01:50 PM

I don't think that might be the reason.

My description, domain name, page title, and forum home page has the term 'vbulletin graphics' in it somewhere, so that gives it a big boost.

I'm no SEO expert, but I am just making predictions.

**Brandon Sheley** · 10-24-2008, 06:18 PM

your doing a good job

well, you still need to fix that title

and I would consider removing the forum title from all pages but the forumhome like we have here
just have the thread titles and page titles.

Just a suggestion
