You don't know PHP, CSS or JavaScript, or even basic HTML, but you're lucky to have WordPress. It has tens of millions of plug-ins, allowing you to easily create a perfect blog. Of course, too many plug-ins are also a problem, because selection is always a difficult task. However, today I have summarized 9 categories for you and selected 35 WordPress plug-ins, it makes it easier for you to create a perfect blog.

 

1. SEO plug-ins:

   All in One SEO Pack, which can be used to optimize All aspects of WordPress, such as titles, keywords, Meta tags, and so on. The author also wrote a detailed tutorial. Chinese users can see the Chinese version of All in One SEO Pack.

   Google XML Sitemaps, Google provides website managers with a convenient indexing method, that is, Sitemap, so that it can more comprehensively capture the content of your website. This plug-in can help you easily create such a SiteMap. In addition, I recommend you read this article: using xHtml Sitemap SEO.

   No Self Pings: we link articles in our blog, but WP will automatically send Trackback or PingBack to the articles, which will make repeated content appear in your blog, this is not good for SEO. However, the NSP plug-in can help you, just like its name, and won't send P/T to yourself.

2. Interactive plug-ins:

   Community Cloud, we need to build an angry blog, so we encourage you to leave a message. This plug-in can implement a "Reader Cloud", similar to the tag Cloud. The more readers comment, the name will be larger. Preview: click here.

   Secure and Accessible PHP Contact Form, do you think it is difficult to Contact readers or customer service sometimes? This plug-in can create a contact page for you and send it to the specified mailbox. It is more convenient for users. Preview: click here.

   Subscribe To Comments. Sometimes we leave a message in a blog and want To know the author's reply. However, we may not want To open the page because we forget the message or the speed problem occurs. At this time, the STC plug-in plays a very important role, which allows the user's mailbox to automatically subscribe to reply messages.

   Show Top Commentators: another way to encourage users to leave a message is to let them know that the more comments they make, the more advanced they are. At this time, this plug-in will be your best helper.

   WordPress Thread Comment, another way to add messages is to make your message recipient realize that his or her words are talking to you, talking to all the message recipients, and interacting with the message, it can basically be said that they reply to each other. The WTC plug-in allows you to use AJAX to reply to users' messages and send multiple replies.

   Comment Luv is another plug-in that can fire up your messages. Install and activate this plug-in. It will display the latest blog post after each message recipient. This message is novel and attractive, isn't it?

3. Subscription plug-ins:

   Simple Feed Copyright, which is not as difficult to install as Better Feed, nor as CopyRight Feed brings a lot of problems to the database, but can achieve the same effect, you can add relevant content at the end of the Feed in HTML format. The result shows the end of each RSS Feed article.

   Full Text Feed, I used to find many plug-ins for Full-Text Feed, but each of them is too huge and the results are not very good. In the end, I chose this plug-in, convenience and ease of use are the reasons for my choice.

   FeedBurner FeedSmith is now used by most Chinese users, but the plug-in made in the name of Feedburner is still one of my favorite plug-ins, because it can turn your Feed to your favorite producer. Method: click here.

   Feedsky Ping and Feedsky are improving every day, although the crawling speed still needs to be improved. In order to make your Feed be crawled in the first place and publish an article to your RSS reader in the fastest way, this plug-in will PING Feedsky immediately and notify it to capture it, is it really helpful for you?

   WWSGD WordPress plugin, which can greatly improve the volume of your pipeline. After activation, the system automatically displays an article similar to "subscribe to me if you like" to remind readers to subscribe to it, the most important thing is that you can set to display only a few times for the same reader.

   Subscribe-Remind. For plug-ins with similar functions, I recommend the best one. This plug-in is similar to the WWSGD plug-in, but I still recommend it to you, because it is also a very good plug-in. Unlike WWSGD, it will automatically add a text & Feed link to remind readers to subscribe to the article.

4. Article content:

   WordPress Related Posts is a very good plug-in for Denis. I am also using it. It provides various functions, but the most important thing is that it can display Related articles more accurately according to Tags, let your readers see the post of the article and continue with the content they like.

   The Chinese WordPress toolbox, you can see the name, this is a very localized plug-in. Its function is to provide related articles, random articles, and comment articles at most. It is an indispensable toolbox.

   Popularity Contest, even with the Chinese WP toolkit, I think this plug-in is very necessary to introduce. It allows you to list the most popular articles of the year, month, and week. The most important thing is that you can set the criteria for selecting the most popular articles.

   Share This Chinese, AlexKing plug-in, a plug-in for sofish localization, because there are too few social tag networks in China, such as DIGG. This plug-in is also welcomed by many Chinese users. Its function is to share your articles to multiple mainstream online bookmarking sites in China, so that more Chinese users can see your articles.

   Audio player: this plug-in allows you to insert MP3 files into your blog. you can insert them with simple tags. Of course, you know the MP3 address. Moreover, it is small and beautiful, which is enough to make you like it.

   Search Hilite, we pursue perfection, So we focus on user experience. However, WP's default search does not provide much of our function. The most important thing is that it does not highlight keywords to facilitate readers. Search Hilite is born for this purpose. It is based on the default Search and supports keyword highlighting in four colors. It also enhances the default Search engine function.

5. Beautification plug-ins:

   Like its name, this plug-in allows you to display pictures in the Flickr album like RSS (of course, it is not an RSS text), to show yourself, your role, or beautify, this is a good choice. Chinese users may need the Yupoo plug-in. You can refer to the following method.

   Lightbox for WordPress: Maybe you are an album blog, or you are a photography enthusiast. Your blog needs to display a lot of beautiful pictures for everyone to see. I think, lightbox For WordPress may be icing on the cake For your beautiful photos, because it can display your images with cool effects.

   CoolCode, a plug-in that can highlight code, another masterpiece of Chinese people. I like it very much. It is easy to use and can be modified and high. Of course, the most important thing is that it can make the code very beautiful.

   WP-PageNavi: this plug-in allows you to display pages in a better way, just like the pages at the bottom of my blog homepage. Pretty. Of course, it also has another function, that is, it can reduce the page depth of the article, so as to facilitate the search engine index effect, can also be called a small tool of SEO? :-)

6. Advertisement plug-ins:

   Adsense Deluxe, are you still using Adsense? Even if many blogs are no longer used, this does not mean that they do not make money, but you have not found a way to make money. This plug-in allows you to easily insert Google and Yahoo ads in articles and other places.

   Alimama Deluxe, maybe the name is from the plug-in above. But don't be fooled by the name. In fact, its function is very unique. It allows you to manage your Alimama ads perfectly.

7. Background plug-ins:

   Theme Test Drive, we are constantly changing and testing our own templates. Even if we have tested them locally, some minor problems may occur on our blog, is there a plug-in that allows you to test the topic on your blog, but do you still see your original topic? I think Theme Test Drive can help you.

   ChenPress, WP's default editor is simply terrible, even if it is constantly improving. In the past, I used Fckeditor's WP plug-in to edit the article, but I don't know why it will no longer apply to the new version until the appearance of Chenpress. I didn't change the editing plug-in. It is simplified to a visual plug-in of Fckeditor, which I strongly recommend to you.

   Cos_slug_translator, for Chinese users, the article name Scaling (Post Slug) may be another biggest problem. However, Cos. China has produced this automatic English SLUG translation plug-in, so you don't need to bother with this problem.

   Samsarin PHP Widgets. In many cases, we need to run PHP In Widgets, but WP is not allowed by default. Fortunately, we have this plug-in, which makes it easier for us to use Widgets.

8. Security plugin

   WordPress database backup, data is everything in your blog, and often backing up your blog data is a further guarantee. The so-called careful travel of ten thousand years boat. WDB plug-in makes it easy and convenient to back up data. We believe that simple operations can also do the most important thing.

   Akismet, a plug-in provided by WP and developed by the WP team. It emerged to fight against a large number of SPAM producers. However, it requires the WordPress API key. Application? Click here. Chinese users I prefer to recommend Some Chinese Please! This plugin.

   Alternative: 10 most useful WordPress security and protection plug-ins. If you need higher security, you still need it here, but you may not have imagined it.

9. Label plug-in

   Simple Tags: We used to use UTW before 2.3, and we were more impressed with simple tags after 2.3. It can modify tags in batches and add tags to previous articles... Just like all in one seo pack for SEO, simple tags is omnipotent in tag management.

   Extended Live Archives, a cool plug-in that can display tags and link articles on pages in a cool way. Maybe, it can also be regarded as a beautification class plug-in.

OK. It took me 5 hours to finish writing. As a matter of fact, it is also my experience in using plug-ins after one year of WordPress experience. I hope these will help you build a perfect WordPress blog to a certain extent.
