Well you can stubmit a sitemap to google using the following url
http://yourforumname.smfforfree.com/sitemaps/sitemaps.php

Or a yahoo feed list by doing
http://yourforumnam.smfforfree.com/sitemaps/urllist.php

This lets the search engines find the content on your website. Your forum needs to have open acces to public in order for this to work


Pretty sure that in order to submit a site map I need to get my forum verified. It asks to pick either a meta tag or html file.

I know there are some restrictions to messing with any meta. Can I use the meta tag for the Google verification, or should I pick the html file?

Thanks!

I'm not sure if I'm the only one with a forum that has trouble getting members to post.I happened to find this site and have used it successfully twice.It's free the only catch is you have to exchange posts.I've had two other forum admins come to mine and they started the ball rolling with fresh posts and ideas.If your interested this is the link  http://www.postexchangeclub.com/

Thank you...Great advice, I added my URL to all of them.  Smiley

Here's something you guys will probably like! Create a toolbar for your forum. I created one for mine and it has features like Messages (users can read messages posted by you from the toolbar), Links (I have quick links to important pages on my forum), a radio/podcast player, email notifier (keeps track of your email; works with Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, and POP3), and weather.

To create your own toolbar for free go to www.ourtoolbar.com

This is kind of cool...I made a tool bar, not sure I`m going to use it, but thanks for the idea.

as mentioned above i dont need like A TON of members but i need active members who log on daily and post daily but more members wouldnt hurt. I have added my site to google msn and yahoo and various other stuff. I would advertise my site but MOST of the sites i post in have a NON ADVERTISING rule meaning any links found not approved by the Staff can result in suspension from my account and id rather not .-.

Also organizing your board and have proper explinations can lead to a user thinking your board is strong.

I have included a 'sites you recommend' section on my general forum. I am happy for people to advertise there, and most "admins" that do, reciprocate.

The best form of advertising is of course referrals - if members are happy they will invite their friends.

One thing you could do is tell friends by email and tell them to tell there friends and stuff like that. Sorta start a Chain Reaction. Smiley
