front end:

I had worked with this client before with their WordPress theme so when customizing their vBulletin forum, I was already familiar with their design and layout. The client wanted it to look almost exactly like their WordPress site, so I reused most of their existing elements and then customized vBulletin to make it fit in with their existing design.

back end:

The client wanted some additional SEO (search engine optimization) so I added in some custom plugins and tweaks.

lessons learned/random thoughts:

vBulletin is a great product to work with. Usually I work with open source bulletin boards like phpBB and bbPress – but vBulletin is also another great piece of software to consider when looking at bulletin boards.
