So you already have a forum setup or planning to setup one and are wondering the best way to optimize your phpBB forum for search engine visibility?

Although phpBB forum software is a great package that helps you run a community/message board, it lacks the necessary features to allow good search engine visibility.  The URLs generated by the forum software have no meaning (from SEO point of view) and usually contain php session IDs. This makes your website vulnerable to the “Duplicate content” penalty and may also result in a ban from Google(tm) and other search engines. Also the meta tags, html source code and other essential SEO parameters that are generated by phpBB are not search engine friendly.

Does that mean phpBB is a bad software package? Not at all, phpBB is a very scalable and flexible php based software. However, the developers of the software, didn’t probably think too much from the search engine optimization angle.

But you don’t have to worry at all! We have a solution to make your phpBB board SEO friendly. We will optimize your board so that search engines can crawl your website in a much better way. They can also understand the content of the page better since we remove lot of irrelevant text out of the html code that is generated by phpBB software.

Is your phpBB forum constantly being spammed by fake signups, spam posts with links to casino, free ringtones, games etc?

You have already tried enabling phpBB default captcha but it didn’t produce any good results? Well the reason for the same is, spammers have already developed scripts to decode phpBB default captcha. You, probably, also have tried to install some of those popular phpBB anti-spam mods available on the internet but it didn’t completely solve your problem?

Are these solutions bad? No, they aren’t. But since these are popular solutions implemented on most of the websites running phpBB, hackers keep devising ways and means to bypass such checks in place. Also, no antispam system will remain 100% effective all the time. It requires constant updates to the code and adding new antispam features to your phpBB board that are effective against the spammers but generally transparent to the real users.

One can probably install 100s of phpBB antispam mods and get 100% protection from spam for few months. But at what cost? Generally most of these antispam mods require the user to perform some additional task in order for the system to accept their registration or post. Now imagine doing 1 additional task per mod if you have 10 antispam mods installed.

How can we help you?

We have developed a solution that has combination of 4 to 6 phpBB antispam mods. Some of these are available on the Internet. Some of these have been highly modified based on our experience dealing with phpBB spam. Some of these mods have been custom coded and are not available on the Internet. We have chosen these antispam mods over 100s of others because of their effectiveness in dealing with phpbb forum spam.
