Mod Name / Version: Search Engine Optimization Mod for 6.3 & 6.4 - ver 1.0
Description: This modification changes the URL format of the URLs leading to your posts to a more search engine friendly format. It removes the ? & and = signs from the URLs (which search engines typically penalize for) and replaces them with slashes, which makes the variables look like directory names.
We've been using it here at ThreadsDev since September and at last check had 70,000-80,000 listings in Google (up from 300 and something in early September).
