What are the essential plugins for a WordPress site? - Aaron - 11-27-2012 06:42 AM
I am setting up a couple of WordPress sites. I'm relatively new to WordPress. I am wondering what plugins people recommend that I install. The websites will require SEO, Goodle Adsence (or alternative PPC advertiser), traffic stats and social interactivity. Can anyone recommend any easy to use plugins that will achieve these objectives and more? I'm open to ideas.
I would like details of specific plugins that I can install.
Is there a specific plugin for Google Analytics?
Is there a specific plugin which assists in displaying contextual PPC advertising?
Is there a specific social media plugin?
Thanks

Hi!
I would recommend to install the following plugins:
1) Spam filtering plugin to keep your comments clean (akismet);
2) Google Analytics for ultimate traffic stats;
3) Latest Tweets to integrate your Twitter feed;
4) Social Networking to add links to your social media profiles (social icons that are linked to your pages in social websites).

Spam detectors are the best to prevent your blog from being infested by too much spam.
