So i found a list of rad wordpress plugins on a forum, i kind of agree on a few of them but not on some. So i thought i would edit the list and add a few of my own favs. I will keep this list updated as best i can!
- Akismet- Got crazy spam problems? I use this plugin on all my blogs, all you need is a WP API key. Stops all spam in its tracks!
- FeedBurner FeedSmith-Feedburner is a very popular web feed management provider. This plugin detects all ways to access your original WordPress feeds and redirects them to your FeedBurner feed so you can track every possible subscriber
- Google XML Sitemaps- A great boost to SEO. Google loves sitemaps and uses them to help them determine what information should be indexed.
- Lighter Menus- Lighter Menus creates drop-down menus instead of the regular admin menus of the WordPress interface, so that you can browse items with one click and work at your blog in a much more usable environment.
- Plugin Central- I have only just discovered this little gem. I hate having to SSH or FTP into the server to install a new plugin, this thing does it all from within the dashboard!
- Subscribe To Comments- Lets people chose to subscribe to the comments on your blog.
- WassUp- Real time stats (OS, browser, host, referrer, location, top content, top searches) help you determine which content and marketing efforts are working, and give you immediate satisfaction when you have site visitors. Plus, there are great sort options.
- StatPress- There are plenty of stat plugins, make your choice!.
- WP-DBManager- I think one of the most important things to do in any business is to keep regular backups!
- bookmarkify- Great social bookmarking plugin. This lets your readers promote your blog!
- commentluv- Give the people that comment on your blog additional incentive using CommentLuv. This plugin searches their RSS feed and adds a link to their last blog post in their comment. Your commenter gets a keyword rich anchor link to his/her blog!
- keywordluv- Reward your commentators by separating their name from their keywords in the link to their website, giving them improved anchor text.
- AdSense Manager- If you are looking to monetize your blog then this is a fantastic plugin, it is extremely flexible in that it allows you to do so much more than just insert adsense code into your blog. Plus you can use this plugin to insert your opt-in box within the content. Great flexibility.
