Oh…and if I was going to set up a site I would use WordPress, it’s just to neat of a program not to use.

Here are a couple plugins I use:

1 – akismet
2 – all-in-one-seo-pack
3 – cross-linker
4 – google-sitemap-generator
5 – maxblogpress-ping-optimizer
6 – myvideoblog
7- statpress-reloaded
8- permalinks-moved-permanently
9- post-plugin-library
10- robots-meta
11- similar-posts
12- simple-captcha
13- simple-tags
14- sociable
15- wordpress-popular-posts
16- wp-auto-tagger
17- wp-db-backup
18- disqus-comment-system

If you do not know how to install a plug-in then you can follow the steps below.

Go to “Plugins” > “Add New” > then click on “Install Plugins” at the top of the page.

1 – Search for each plug-in by its name.
2 – Once found, click “install” at the far right under “Actions”.
3 – Click “Activate” and your plug-in is installed and ready to go.
