Search Engine Friendly URLs allow certain search engines to index more of your site, because they aren't confused with all the "weird" signs in a dynamic URL. These signs include & , ? marks , % signs and = signs. MyBB 1.4 supports SEF URLs which can be enabled from with the Admin Control Panel, and makes your URLs static (easier to index).

Make sure your server supports Mod Rewrite
Rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess
Login to your Admin Control Panel
Select the Configuration tab
Click Server and Optimization Options
Make Sure Enable search engine friendly URLs? is set to either Automatic Detection or enabled

This will make your URLs automatically change to the transformed SEF URLs.
