Useful Plugins for WordPress
Once you created your web site or blog there are some very useful free plugin you can add to your web site to make it better. Here is a list of some of them:
Dean’s FCKEditor for WordPress Plugin
Instead of using the standard WordPress text editor (the thing you use to type the content of the post or page) you can use Dean's FCKE Editor. It gives you more text and styling options than the standard editor.
To install it just go to your plugins tab, press the "add new" link and in the search box enter FCKEditor
Email to Friend Plugin
Word of mouth is most certainly the best way of advertising. By adding this plugin a "Tell a Friend" button will appear at the end of each post. Visitors to your site can use that to tell others about your post.
To install it just go to your plugins tab, press the "add new" link and in the search box enter Tell-a-Friend Widget Plugin
Sticky Posts
This plugin will make the selected post "Sticky" this means that it will keep it at the top of the list regardless of its age. This is ideal for special offers or announcements.
To install it just go to your plugins tab, press the "add new" link and in the search box enter WP-Sticky
Adsense
Although not one of the Plugins I show on the DVD, this plugin will automatically display Adsense ads in three places on your pages. It is an easy way to implement Adsense ads on all your posts and pages.
To install it just go to your plugins tab, press the "add new" link and in the search box enter AdSense Now Plugin
WP-Affiliate
This plugin helps you to hide your affiliate links in your blog. It creates a redirect link which looks better than a normal affiliate link.
To install it just go to your plugins tab, press the "add new" link and in the search box enter WP-Affiliate Plugin
