phpBB Modifications, Mod Rewrite and Themes :

Is it enough to have a running phpBB discussion forum ?
Not at all. phpBB discussion forumshows dynamic URLs with session IDs which makes it hard for search engines to index the pages generated by phpBB discussion forum. if your phpBB discussion forumis not properly optimised for search engines, it will never deliver you what it was supposed to. Search Engines i.e. Google, MSN, Yahoo etc. cannot crawl properly through pages generated in discussion forum for many reasons, the commonly known reason being session IDs. And because of this, your discussion forum hardly gets indexed by top search engine like Google, etc.

phpBB search engine optimisation :
We make smart adjustments in code to optimise phpBB for search engines. Here is how we do it :

  • We make adjustments in code to eliminate sessions IDs.
  • We make adjustments in code to convert dynamic URLs to static HTML URLs.
here is an example :
after code optimisation a dynamic URL with session ID

http://abc.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=1&sid=23093656eda
will be converted to

http://abc.com/forum/forum1.html

The Effect :search engine spiders find it more friendly to crawl through URLs converted to static html URLsand thus index your phpBB pagesvery well.

We go extra miles and do even more adjustments in index.php, sessions.php, viewforum.phpfiles to further optimise phpBB for even better search engine ranking.

Live Example :You can look at the Online Tourism Discussion Forum that we implemented for www.himachalworld.com at www.himachalworld.com/forum. This forum has gone through heavy treatment including redefined html tags, mod rewrite, search engine optimisation and much more.
