So tell me, What are your top 5 WordPress plugin you can’t do without? The first 5 Plugin you always install when creating a new blog?

Top 5 WordPress Plugin

WordPress is a wonderful platform because it gives you the freedom to do what you want and how you want with it.

Unlike the Blogger platform, you do not need any coding skill to create a beautiful site. All you need is an idea and the right plugin to execute the idea.

Hey! Though WordPress can give you endless possibilities, but not use it well will cause more harm to your blog than good.

Like using too much plugin on your blog can put weight on your blog server and cause your site to run slow.

And once your site becomes slow, it will lose its rank on Google search and your host provider might suspend your account due to the weight it is putting on the server.

Installing and using two plugins that work the same thing is bad for you. Uninstall one of the plugins and just use the other.

What are your reasons for having 30 WordPress plugins on your blog? If you don’t have a good reason, please try to cut it down by uninstalling the useless ones.

Top 5 WordPress Plugin

After installing the WordPress platform, there are top 5 wordpress plugin I install first before doing any other tweaking. And the top 5 wordpress plugin are;

Yoast SEO

Writing good content will get your blog ranked in Google search. But sometimes, to quick, the process for your content to get ranked is what we should think about if we want to make money and leads. That’s where Yoast SEO comes in.

Contact Form 7

I love listening to feedback and requests from my loyal blog readers. That’s why I got this bad boy installed on my blog.

With the free Contact Form 7, your blog is covered… and rest assured your customer will get in touch with you swiftly

Feed Burner Smith Extended

   

Using the default feed can put some strain on your blog server. And your default feed can’t give you that 100% flexibility. So changing the default feed to either Google’s own FeedBurner will be the best option. That is where Feed Burner Smith Extended comes in.

With Feed burner smith, you can easily change the default feed to any feed of your choice. How? Just download, install and start using without stress 😉

Redirection

As long as you have a blog that has plugins and other blogger comments on, you will get a broken link.

    Yoast SEO plugin is the most important plugin than all the other plugins. Because if we didn’t do seo correctly we can’t get traffic.

    For me, Yoast SEO is the most important of all. Almost everyone knows how important SEO is. What I also love having in my wordpress is the Qeryz. It is a wordpress survey tool. I’m so thankful for that plugin because I have an idea what my readers like and dislike about my blog.

    Hi Babanature,

    I just couldn’t live without Yoast. It saves so much time when checking my SEO. I won’t publish anything unless all the lights are green. Its like having a virtual assistant looking over my work telling me I need to fix up this or that until it is all working well.

    Hey BabaNature

    I hope you are doing well.
    I think Yoast is one of the best and must have a plugin for WordPress sites.
    Doesn’t matter if it is news website or a personal blog or an e-commerce
    Even the free version provides you with so much stuff that it makes it easier to do the on-page SEO.

    Keep up the good work 🙂
