Hello everyone,
I was wondering, how should I optomize my forum, www.syschat.com, It is PR4, but i still get almost no traffic from SE's. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris

Do phpbb have a rewrite_mod?

Good idea, I installed a bots mod, which just gets rid of SIDs and tracks how many pages bots spider. Im gonna go with your suggestion and find a rewrite mod, Im sure there is at least one for phpBB.

I just installed a rewrite mod, it seems like a great idea, putting the topic name in the domian.

Yep.. Good to use these for the search engines since its said that engines can't look past the ? in the links, which makes the spider index that page as a duplicate.
