It’s a pleasure when you get things done easily for your work. Though, I was looking out for the best things for my blog. There were some major things like mobile version, comment moderation system and SEO but some plugins helped me to set my blog up in short period. Below I will explain how those plugins has generated a big smile on my face.
Jetpack by WordPress.com: One of the best plugin I have found for the best functions provided by it. To start with the functions it has very good navigation and display to check the each function in very nice manner. It gives me stats of my website visits on daily, weekly and monthly basis.
It also has those comment operational settings where users can log in through social platform to make comments. They also provide the omnisearch which is a search box and WP.me short links to share the content. I have used features like mobile theme which automatically optimizes your website in to a mobile website.
Akismet: The one of the best plugins to protect your blog from the comment spam and the trackbacks. As I used to receive several numbers of spam on daily basis from various IP’s and used to take my ample time to waste on deleting manually. This plugin automatically sort the spam comments and trackback and make sure you only moderate the real user comments.
Linkwithin: The spirit that you are looking for is lies within you and if you properly use your internal strengths to supports your weaker ones then it would be the best thing happened to you. The moral of this is that this plugin gives me the option to interlink my other posts at below the new post that I am going to write. I mean every post you will find this plugin showing other post of mine.
Sociable: Plugin which has famous social sharing buttons and bookmarking sites to display right under your post so that users can bookmark and share content on whatever platform they want. These also help me to create awareness and publish my content on all major platforms.
Last and the most important WordPress plugin which helped me more than any plugin to make my blog search engine friendly is the WordPress SEO by Yoast. This plugin has almost every single metric to change for your blog which plays important role in the search engine rankings. Titles, Meta’s, Sitemaps, Permalinks and RSS which gave me easy edit options to make my blog search engine friendly in very less time.
Well, these plugins are the important one but there are some more plugins that I use for small changes and blog modifications to reach more users on the internet and make my blog safe and secured.
