VBSEO 3.1.0 has been released for everyone. It’s the first unencrypted version of the software and includes many other performance improvements such as caching with Memcached and xCache. It also includes built in support for vBulletin Blogs if you’re into that kind of thing ;)

Oh and Branding Free is now available for those that have been crying for it for years :) This should make many people happy. Glad to see they finally got around to releasing it. It’s been in the Pre-Release’s hands for quite some time now.

Official announcement here: VBSEO 3.1.0 Released.

The pre-release team is also testing a new version of the sitemap generator as well which includes support for blogs and a few bug fixes.

If it’s one thing I hate seeing on a webmaster or forum admin forum is a thread asking if VBSEO works or how to tell if it works. Especially when that topic has been discussed to death on that particular forum. These threads also usually end up being a pissing match between two or three people with me usually being involved. I recently made a post on Admin Fusion that I think will benefit others looking at VBSEO. The last part of my reply is what I want everyone to think about before they buy VBSEO and expect to see results within x amount of days/weeks/months/years. You can view the post here.

This is the part that I want to stress:

If you get anything out of this post I hope it is this: I bought VBSEO knowing that everything it claimed to do was good for a sites seo. Removing duplicate content is good. Removing duplicate urls is good. These are things I didn’t want to trust a free modification for. I paid for VBSEO knowing what it was going to do and then I went on about my business building my site. Not caring if VBSEO was the reason my site grew or not. My goal was accomplished. My site was properly SEO’d and ready for me to start aggressively building links.

VBSEO is not a miracle program. It’s a tool among many tools that can be used to have a successful forum.
