I was inspired this morning by @alanparry asking about how to install WordPress plugins. In searching WordPress.tv I found this talk from WordCamp Orange County 2010 where some great plugins for your site are discussed. Check out the video, list, and slides url below for all the information. I use most of these but hadn’t heard of Tweeted yet. Going to use that one for sure!
The essential plugins are:
- SEO SmartLinks, automatically link your tags or categories
- Google XML Sitemaps
- Yet Another Related Posts Plugin
- Redirection
- W3 Total Cache
- WP Super Cache (use if your webhost doesn’t like W3 Total Cache)
- Google Analytics
- Tweeted (embed tweets from Twitter on a page)
Presentation slides available on the WPVibe website.
