The WordPress Plugins you need to start a decent blog
As we all now have changed our blogs to WordPress (WP) and are receiving the benefits of web site simplicity and the great features it offers make it totally unique and irreplacable. This blog uses WordPress too.
Although the great features that WP offers to make your blog decent you need some plugins that are free to download. These are the ones I most commonly use:
- All In One Seo Pack : It’s a plugin that makes instant SEO to your blog post. The post are optimized in Search Engines and submitted very fast. Let’s you set MetaData for your blog, in a single place.
- All in One Adsense and YPN: automatically inserts google adsense ads or yahoo publisher network (YPN) ads in to your posts on the fly.
- Google Analyticator: adds the necessary JavaScript code to enable Google Analytics logging on any WordPress blog.
- FeedBurner FeedSmith : This plugin detects all ways to access your original WordPress feeds and redirects them to your FeedBurner feed account so you can track every possible subscriber.
- Google XML Sitemaps : This plugin will generate a sitemaps.org compatible sitemap of your WordPress blog which is supported by Ask.com, Google, MSN Search and YAHOO.
- Really Simple Sitemap: lists all of your published posts so that a user (or search engine) is never more that 2 clicks away from any post on your blog.
- Sociable: Adds social media buttons to your posts. Adding this plugins to your default WP blog provides a solid foundation to your new blog. They are very easy to install and require not very high skills to configure.
