My Favorite Wordpress Plugins

The other day I was asked what are my favorite plugins for Wordpress, especially for SEO. Well, although I posted this on another site, I thought I would also post it here. These are among my favorites for now, I am sure more will come out. Plugins are always evolving, just like the internet! Enjoy…

For SEO & Fun I recommend (And Use):

Cross Linker - Allows keywords to automatically hyperlink to other
sites (Anchor text to your other sites)
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cross-linker/

SEO All in one pack - Allows easy editing of meta info, permalink
edits…..This is to me a critical plugin.

Sociable Plugin - By far the best plugin for social network sharing,
email and print buttons.

Comment Relish - Send an e-mail message to users who comment on your
website who have never commented before. The message dispatched to the
user is defined within the plugin’s preferences.

Dagon Site Map - **Important..This is by far the easiest to install
site map.

redirects them to your FeedBurner feed

Nice post Ty! This is a good resource for all those with blogs.

Jason, Thanks man! There are so many, I just don’t have time or room to post them all. What are your favorites?

What a great collection of Wordpress Plugins. I personally use the all in one SEO plugin, the category base killer to remove /category/ from URLs and relevant post plugin with all my Wordpress installations.

Thanks Ty,

I am in the middle of evolving my own blog, and working on blogs for two clients and lost my list of plugins to work on! PS I like your theme too, will check it out.

Fiona,
These types of posts are fun! One other reason for this post was so I wouldn’t forget the ones I use! So you set up blogs for clients eh?
