Hi All - thought this would be a good place for a stickup of the best (at least my 10 favourites) wordpress plugins. Also - these plugins are free (except #10) but the authors could use a little $$ so why not donate $1 - $10 if it will really help you?
1. Search and Replace - awesome little utility that does exactly what the title spiels - searches for a text string and replaces - whether in the table or in the post - very handy
2. All in One SEO Pack - adheres to really tight SEO guidelines for your posts and helps get you ranking
3. WP Security Scan - will scan your system after installation for vulnerabilities
4. Bad Behavior - Keeps your blog free of spammy shiite
5. The Google XML Sitemap Generator - Will create a compliant sitemap of your blog
6. Popularity Contest - This plugin will help you see which of your posts are most popular. Views, comments, etc. are tracked and given configurable point values to determine popularity
7. Twitter Plug - Will pull your tweets into your blog and create new tweets blog posts.
8. Category Order - Allows you to drag and drop your categories into a new order on the bar
9. Sociable - allows you to add in a series of social buttons to share your posts
10. AutoBlogged - NOT FREE - but kicks major ass when you need a great feed. automatically creates blog posts from any RSS or Atom feed. Autoblogging is a great way to automate your WordPress posts so you can focus your efforts on earning money with your blog.
So - with my fav 10 being added... will you add yours to the list? Lets see what we can come up with for truly great plugins - this is sure to help the new bloggers.
