Super Soaker Central forums

W B L is filtered to help out in search engines. I would suggest that you try not to avoid the filter on that because it really is only helping our position.

I did not think that it would filter URLs, so I am changing the filter so that it should only filter words.

I don't even use forums and accordiong to duxburian SSN is somewhere on the search engines...

Not near the top, but it does appear before say the 5th page with certain search terms. I found it on some smaller search engines, your site is too new to reach Google though.

You don't need forums to rank in search engines, but they really help SEO.

To submit to Google you just fill out a request. It may be some time (I submitted mine a second time after about a month waiting and it's on there now), but it helps Google find you. Here's the link.

One time I accidently typed "soaker soaker information" and ssnation came up as like #14 on google, but that's just cause I put in soaker twice

I split this thread because the water balloon launcher one was drifting.

"super soaker information" isn't even a remotely popular keyword. I have never once seen that even in a keyword list. I would suggest doing some actual keyword research because you will be in for a rude awakening when you target complely unpopular keywords. We're #1 for that keyword, but that does us no real good because I am sure that less than 0.01% of everyone looking for water gun related things on Google doesn't use that keyword.

Also remember that Google accounts for about 50% of all searches (52% in the most recent poll I had seen). Yahoo and MSN account for close to the remaining 40%. Those three search engines are what will bring in the most people. Do not focus on obscure search engines that no one uses.
