Oh yes, actually, I'm thinking about something like this, but the problem is phpBB search function is quite heavy, and doing this could add some load on the server if links are heavily followed.

Oh, you are saying these are not link, just plain text keywords.

Hum. Not really efficient SEO wise I think.

Listing keyword can be taken as spam-indexing, providing suggested tags with links is user friendly, the limit is thin, but there is one.

i saw many sites use this Especially warez sites-and google give them results at the first Laughing

but does many words without links taken as spam-indexing?

if i add words in index page or in footer and this words in my topics but words maybe many

does it spam to google Smile

I'm not quite sure about this mod, but one thing that has struck me is that the search function in phpbb is not too good and if you go to the phpbb site and use the search on the forum, you never find what you want although you pull up thousands of pages.

For this reason I do not use the phpbb search function and I replaced the button so that when "search" is clicked it opens up a Google search page.

Google search is much better than the search function in phpbb IMHO.

Also if you use the Google adsense search page you get paid if someone clicks the sponsored listings Wink
