    Hello,
    I want to make a new site, with Mp3 songs, Music Videos, a Chat, a Gallery, a Forum and some Articles for each artist. I don´t want to use Subdomains, everything should be under www.site.com/Mp3/..and so one..

    The whole site should be also very Seo-friendly, thats the most important thing for this project.

    - For the main site I think I will use Wordpress, there I will post all the artist Seo- optimized articles, and will link for each artist, the Mp3´s, Music Videos, Forum postings etc.

    - For the Forum I choose VBulletin with VbSeo.

    - For the Gallery I´m not sure, should I use the "Gallery2" Script or is there a Wordpress Plugin, wich make it more simple and is Seo optimized with .htaccess Urls, etc. , too?

    - For all the Mp3 songs, I found allready an Mp3 directory Script, but if somebody knows a Seo Mp3 directory Script, please tell me, but this one is not so important.

    - Know I need something for the Music Videos, wich all are embeedet and comes from YouTube, so should I just post them "into" the articles at the bottom? Or make for each artist another post/page on Wordpress, with the Music Videos? Something else? What do you think?

    - For the Chat I wanted to use something simple

    Sry for the long post, and thx If you read it all and have some new ideas for better Seo or overall.

    Why not use vB for the whole thing?
    3.7 has a gallery feature, which will work just as you want it to
    You can use a number of plugins for the mp3/video setup
    As an added feature, you can use the vb blog system and allow them to blog that way.

    A bit more money? Maybe, but it's worth it to keep everything all under one management system. Of course, it'd need a lot of customization, but that shouldn't be terribly hard.
