Tried posting and timed out and lost message. Kinda stinks. I bought an expired domain and set this up in January. phpBB3 with a Joomla home page to show recent threads. I haven't done much with the site aside from only one or two threads at that time, and it looks like it only recently got fully indexed. The Joomla recent threads are not SEO URL's, so they were redirected via zero duplicate to the SEO URL's. I knew eventually Google would figure them out, but I know not much page rank is getting passed this way. I saw that now NV's recent threads mod has been adapted for phpbb-seo so I'm going to implement it now. I'm also starting to get a little more activity in the forums (from zero). My plan is to do the following: 1) Add NV's recent topics mod, but with SEO url's 2) replace Joomla with the phpbb3 home page with recent topics 3) Keep the forum threads at the same URL's via redirects (I think somewhere in phpbb-seo I saw a way to do that fairly easily
As my site is already fully indexed, a better measure of success (I assume quicker indexing with the proposed changes as well as better passage of page rank form the home page) would be unique visitors. In February I had 80, March 155, and so far in April 122.

I know this is painful. FF does fix the issue though, you get your message back when going on the last visited page upon such failures.
I get 9 pages indexed for the forum in Google, it's few, but it's full crawl with :

You did a great job installing our mods, all you need now is more content. |

As I mentioned above, I implemented some of the changes I planned. I got rid of Joomla and I moved the forums from the subdirectory to root. I also added the recent topics to the front page of the site. I had thought unique visitors would have been the best measure at the time, but I find I'm getting a lot of "spam" visitors so I think the best measure of success now is the number of referrals from search engines. Based on AWstats, I have:
June (not over yet):
Google 89, Windows Live 13, Yahoo 3, Unknown 2, AOL 1
May:
Google 73, Windows Live 2, Yahoo 1
April:
Google 65, Yahoo 13, Windows Live 3, MSN Search 2
So, it appears I was able to implement the changes I wanted and still gain some traffic. This is all on a site that has almost no links pointing to the site and I added only 2 threads over the last 2 months. This site was mainly a place for me to test out the software and I think it performs excellently. I've decided to switch over another site to phpbb seo that gets a lot more traffic and things seem to be going very well. I appreciate all of the work that went into this!
