Hi,
As far as I understand, I don’t think the spiders understand redirects.
However I did notice that they keep crawling the forums quite often though, depends on the meta tags that you insert in the header.
Perhaps you could try submitting the URL of the forums directly, and then place a link to the main domain in the forum pages as well, just in case.
Hope this helps.
I think Ill do that, thanks for the reply Intertops :hattip:

All the best.
When forums update, does that mean messages topics and such?

Then log in to the Admin CP panel of phpBB and keep your eyes on the visitors. You would be able to see the Bots crawling your pages.
Although they have some page rank I’ve never recieved any SE natural traffic on my phpbb forums.
