I have about half of those installed on my blog. I love the all in one SEO plugin.
Akismet has been really helpful as well as the do-follow plugin.
The all-in-one SEO pack is a great tool too!
Will have to check out the other links you posted, might find some good ones! Thanks!
I also use WP-Spamfree. And also userlocker, share/bookmark/email button, and contextual related posts.
This is a great article. I am a big fan of wordpress and it really is nothing without the plugins. Like anything else in, you really need to customize it and make it your own. If clients see that you put time and effort into your site it will increase traffic.

My favorite wp plugin is All in one SEO Pack
Hay thanks for the post yaar. And all plug ins are very nice. One can generate more and more traffic using keyword luv plug ins and comment luv plug ins. Each comment posting by the visitor help to increased the back links for the web site which is use with the your name@your keyword . Nice one
Cool list, thanks for sharing. Some of them are must-have.
There is no single solution. Some people will advice you to do SEO, advertising, blogging on a related topic, forums, communities etc, but I will advise you to throw the kitchen sink at it.
many word press plug in are available for different purpose, nice info.. the keyword luv plug in are also very useful to generate the traffic Well!

well wordpress always give something useful and helping plugins and after using some of them i realize that my work become very easier. keep it up
Its very nice post about word press plugins … so what’s the difference in keyword luv & comment luv?
Instant Slideup is also another great plug-in, in addition to Action Popup. Our tests show that it’s less obtrusive, but just as good.
the only plugin I would add here is the redirection one – I use it to redirect dead links
I use akismet – which deletes 90% of the crappy spam comments that I get. I also now use Zemanta, and All in One SEO. I am beginning to see some difference with the All in One SEO. Wordpress has come a long way from 2005, that’s for sure. It has surpassed many blogging platforms that were heads above wordpress. I am looking for a good membership plugin however
Great list! Tank´s!
Hay many thanks for the posting. Morning itself I was searching for few word press plug in ..and I found your blog in search engine. Now this will definitely boost my project work Well!.
What!? I have never heard of some of those! I thought I heard of every plugin ever worth getting. I guess they keep making new ones
I love plugins. I am particularly interested in action popup, tagalize it, and the free traffic one. They look pretty cool!
Lists of wordpress plug ins are all well and good but too many people overdo them. It usually results in a slow loading site and one that has a cluttered appearance.
KEEP IT SIMPLE and only use a plug in if you really need to.
Hi,
This is a great list and some of them i have not heard before ,thanks for sharing such useful plug ins ,i will definitely go for the remaining ones.
keep sharing!
There is a great tag displaying wordpress plugin in which your tags rotate around an invisible sphere. The size is controllable and so you can display your tags without using up great chunks of the sidebar.
I’d recommend it – its called WP Cumulus
Keywordluv is the best for me and the information given here gives lots of new things …….
.-= hulkbenoit´s last blog ..Alfa Romeo Brera 2.2 JTS =-.
These plugins have their own importance. They all are created for different work but their purpose is same of getting more traffic. Keywordluv and Dofollow are the best plugins for generating the traffic.
Thanks for this informative post.
I like all the plugins you have mentioned. I use most of them myself. The one I do not use is the Feedburner Feedsmith, and I’m going to have to check it out. Also I use the Platinum SEO Pack instead of the All in One (just my preference).
Hi, tom i have read your blog carefully and patiently.i mean your marketing tips very well.i frequently use akismet, wordpress,SEO. from now i will take into use your another useful marketing tips in my blog.
Thanks for the tidy little list, I am just about to go and try the free traffic plugin which I had no idea about!
I use a few of the other plugins you mentioned, the biggest saviour was the wordpress backup. 4 days after I installed it and backed up I lost a vast majority of one of my blogs, luckily I was able to sort it all out pretty hassle free.
The SEO plugin also works wonders. I have found my posts getting indexed much quicker and higher thanks to this piece of kit.
A very warm thank you from me!
This is a great article and very informative… For those blogger never forget to add Google XML Sitemaps in you plugins.. I can say it helps a lot on your SEO and works 100%.
I’m new to Wordpress but have found the list to be very useful in the work I am now conducted. I’m constructed a WP and have decided to use the WP SpamFree together with XML SiteMaps just as a start. Keywordluv I’ll look into as I go. Thanks for your help
MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer is being used widely by many blog owners. but i have to check the plugin Zemanta. Heard a lot about it but never used. Through your post i suppose this is a very important plugin. So i have to install it in my wordpress.
There are a lot off other blogs that are not as interesting as this one. Good thing I fount it!
I think the really key ones are All-In-One-SEO and Google XML Maps. There are various opinions on what others are must haves, but I think there’s no debate on the mentioned 2. Thanks for sharing the longer list, Susan
I believe every blog has to have All-In-One-SEO pack, it helps with search engines a lot. Anyway, nice post really!
I really like the fresh perspective you did on the issue. Really was not expecting that when I started off studying. Your concepts were easy to understand that I wondered why I never looked at it before. Glad to know that there’s an individual out there that definitely understands what he’s discussing. Great job
be careful on how you use these plugins, if wordpress see anything similar to an abuse from any of the plugins like “TweetMeme Retweet Button” they will bann your wordpress blog without much chances of regaining access to it.
thanks for the article !
All-In-One SEO, of course. But no-one has mentioned WP Minor Edit – which lets you make adjustments to a post without re-pinging when you re-publish. Use it all the time.
These are really awesome plugins for wordpress.
I have downloaded 5 of them and will apply to my own blog one by one.
Thanks for sharing here with us.
Wordpress has been such a useful one. This is commonly use those who want to have a very good quality of website. Thanks for this wonderful informative post and it really means a lot to me..
I totally agree. Having a Wordpress doesn’t actually that it will generate traffic to your site, it needs customization like building different plug-ins which contributes traffic to your site. Thanks for sharing your wonderful insights about Wordpress.

Hey There Tlmarketing,
On a similar note, The WordPress platform owes a lot of its popularity to the availability of thousands of plugins that perform any function a site owner may need. Simply put if you need to do something there is probably an existing plugin to do it. But what are the security risks that come with installing WordPress plugins? I will tie these threats to the central principles of information security which include Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability.
Nice One!
We personally use the All in One SEO Pack for our SEO purposes and that seems to do the job pretty well… Will give a go to other plugins though as some of them look pretty powerful! Thanks for this list!
Great list of plugins! Think every webmaster should have all of them at hand. In my opinion All in one SEO Pack is really â„–1 among this stuff.
A word press website is good but then you are also required to back it up with with some plugins for it to serve you well. Some plugins like those that prevent spam are a must have. The others you have mentioned are also of great importance but it all depends on what the owner wants. .
