    I am thinking City and Full state name in the title of each post (state abbreviations are too short to search). We want to keep this accessible and easy to search. I'm open to suggestions.

    Can I ask a question that might or might not be related to your question Grizz.
    As a person does a search on their search engine, how well are our forum posts coming up in the 1st or 2nd page results? I know some of my searches usually get the 'other' forums results but don't see ours very often.

    Not really sure...

    I was talking about the search function built into the forum.

    That is fine @Grizzly Adam would you change my title to Virginia Charlottesville and possibly Fredricksburg, Richmond.

    a little late to the party... i'm not too familiar with the back end of xenforo, but i'm an admin on a vbulletin forum, and implemented an option for a drop down box in the for sale forums that allows you to click on the state, and it pops up as part of the title. if that is an option here, it can help avoid misspellings to aid in searching. i'm big on using features i have access to even if they realistically only make small differences, so you guys may not be as enthusiastic about something as simple, but figured i'd throw it out there.
