Yeah. URL titles are good, I suppose, but that isn't really the most important thing when it comes to good SEO, so you're in good hands man.

please share more if you will.

A nice addition to the SEO/URL options (if technically feasible) would be the suggestion below.

Option to have:

hxxp://xenforo.com/community/implemented-resolved-suggestions.15/already-exists-seo.13683/

instead of:

hxxp://xenforo.com/community/threads/already-exists-seo.13683/

I've boldened the part that is customized. Some admins believe the first example is more user friendly as it explains where the thread is located (virtually), so it's kind of a breadcrumb in the URL.

This is all you need. Essentially, they ask for Friendly URLs, but their relevance has decreased over the years, considering a "Good URL" shouldn't necessarily provide relevant results.

I have already suggested this here: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/vbseo-url-structure-in-xenforo-possible-or-not.12949/

A user of this community have said to me that is possible to edit the url structure...but i don't know how to do that. :-(

I don't know...

A few forum have customized the url structure, like this: http://techforum.it/cNIcX
Now, i think it's tecnically possible to edit this.

But give or take, although Google likes structured URLs, they also do not like long ones as well, so it depends if you really think it's beneficial to you or you're just doing it cause vBSEO does it?

No, like i said in my topic, i want full url because i need a hierarcical structure for my site. I host a few clan forums and everyone wants a "indipendence" with the others...and the full url guarantee this.

It's not a seo problem, but a hierarcical structure is very important for me.
