    Look around in the MOD Release Announcements and Support area and you should find something that will do the trick. If it looks too complicated to implement, let me know and I'll help you with it.

        hi allstarfaces.
        you don't realy have to, for some reason google likes forums it picks up on the threads or posts, i have more google results, on post in forums than on my site. in many ways to post on a forum is a way of advertising your site, thats why we are members of six forums ( not including this one ) i have had threads pop up on google all 0ver the place.
        plus people from those forums check out your site and may be want to link with yours. the more thread you can get the better it is. this month google has hit me 4312 times not bad for a site like mine.

                tip of the day for you,
                Join as many forums in (subjects you like) as you can, post as many time as you can. have your web site in your signature. it's Naturally in peoples nature to be nosiey and see what your site is about.
                no doubt you check your stats report in c panel and that many veiwer are from vodahost. post on more forums is hard work but is worth it.
                example i have been ill for a while came back friday, done a few post on here, 41 people then veiwed my site, from vodahost.

                      Re: how to promote a forum

                      So....if I have a phpBB Forum in a sub-folder of a sub-domain so it can remain password-protected (for Associate use only, as a "semi-live" training/CRM/Sales/work enviornment) does that mean it will remain "searchable" or unprotected from rogue bots - even though the domain itself is elsewhere and only DNS>VH ???

                      It might be helpful it it was still "ranked" as far as content (just because anything helps to "advertise" the corporate brands/sites) even though it would deliver visitors to the front protected page.... or am I missing something about this setup? Would it still be possible for searchers to end up on the Main Forum page, bypassing the password layers?

                          It might be helpful it it was still "ranked" as far as content (just because anything helps to "advertise" the corporate brands/sites, but is not necessary) even though it would deliver visitors to the front protected page.... or am I missing something about this setup?

                            Here is a link to a article on making phpBB more friendly to search engines.


                            If you do a google search for "phpBB sid" you while find more good reading on the subject.

                            cheers!
