404 URLs, AceSEF & documentation
Hi everyone,
Yesterday I was providing custom support to one of our honorable customers. He was tired of the huge number of 404 URLs stored by AceSEF. The point that he couldn't get was that he used a crawler to see the 404 URLs on his site and the result was too lowly from the 404 URLs stored by AceSEF.
After discussing a while I realized (again) that we've coded a great software but our documentation really lacks. The issue was on the contrary a great feature, storing all not found pages from all sources on the contrary of the crawler that stores just the first one of the following link, today I documented it:

After this self-criticism let's give some good news, 2 weeks ago we've employed a new guy that is re-documenting AceSEF and hope to get it finished very soon. We're also renewing our Video Tutorials for our VIP members and adding more of them.

This is great news. I've been wanting to explore AceSEF more, and having great documentation will surely help. Keep up the good work!
Best,

The only thing I have noticed, after purchasing Acesef pro yesterday, is that 404 is not great for ranking and for your visitors when it prevents accessing your website. The lack of documentation is one thing, but when the up to date documentation states the obvious without a real explanation of your to use your extensions functions, it is USELESS, just like my multilingual website on Joomla 2.5....
