My readers regularly ask: "What is my top WordPress Plugin list?" For those who have your Wordpress blog and are fairly new to running a blog, you will definitely need one or more of the plugins on this list that can help make your blog successful. This really is my personal list and I realize you'll find other bloggers who might disagree with my choices and that’s expected. Actually, in case you do have a recommendation, feel free to post them in the comments area below to help the infant bloggers in the world to get a running start. Top WordPress Plugin #1 When I used to be a newbie blogger, I didn’t know about the Akismet plugin and I had a lot of spam to take care of. Having installed this plugin has saved me time from having to go through my dashboard and delete a lot of spam. Akismet is a comment spam blocker and works extremely well. The quantity of spam that I get is very low compared to not using this plugin. This plugin is really a timesaver for sure. We bloggers and internet entrepreneurs need all of the help we can get and that’s why I wanted to put this top WordPress plugin list together! Top WordPress Plugin #2 I believe that the SEOPressor is on various top WordPress plugin lists simply because it’s that valuable! There certainly is so much to search engine optimization lately and with Google Panda it’s even more complicated. We understand that we have to have on-page optimization as a big aspect of a blog site that might be newer than two years old. The seasoned blogs don’t need to be conce ed about on-page SEO nearly as much as a younger site, but if your blog is less than two years old or if you haven’t been working very hard up until now on SEO on-page techniques, I advise having the SEOPressor installed in your blog. The plugin is toddler simple and works flawlessly. Soon after installing SEOPressor, I was able to get all of my on-page optimization completed and have the intelligent SEOPressor guide make recommendations. This really is an invaluable tool and that is why I had to add this to my top WordPress plugin list. Top WordPress Plugin #3 Google Analytics is on my top WordPress plugin list because I really like the asynchronous tracking which provides: Faster load times for your web pages due to improved browser execution of the tracking code. Enhanced data collection & accuracy. Elimination of tracking errors from dependencies when the JavaScript hasn’t fully loaded. Custom variables are a way to add data about the current page, the current session or the current user in your tracking, which you can use for some very cool things. You are able to now easily click a button, authenticate with Google Analytics, select the appropriate account and then the right profile and start tracking! This plugin now completely integrates with both WP E-Commerce and Shopp. Top WordPress Plugin #4 The very best part of all is, Jetpack plugin is FREE! This plugin features, WordPress.com stats, Hovercards for graviator, sharedaddy, and a spell checker to name a few. It’s genuinely an all-in-one tool for your blog. I consider that Jetpack really should be one of the top WordPress Plugins and you can’t beat the price either! Running a blog isn't as complex as it might appear when you're new at it. There are many tasks a blogger has to do in order to make their blog site successful and plugins are a small but fundamental part. Feel free to add to the list in the comments section.
