Ask The Blog Queen

Have you been looking for a list of plugins that would tell you what you need to add to your WordPress blog? Then I have compiled short list below which is what you have been looking for:

• WP-Statistics: gives you detailed stats in an easy to digest fashion. Just upload & activate and you have stats.
• Subscribe Me: Adds buttons at the end of your sidebar so your visitors can subscribe to your blog via services such as Bloglines and MyYahoo!.
• Google Sitemap Generator for WordPress: Generates a Google Sitemaps compliant sitemap of your blog.
• WP-EMail:  Allows people to recommand/send your WordPress blog’s post/page to a friend.
• WP-Print:  Displays a printable version of your WordPress blog’s post/page.
• aLinks: Takes a set of keywords you commonly use, and automatically turns them into links for you. This plugin has an options page in the admin panel giving your plenty of control over the way the links are created, and easy keyword management. Also has built in functionality for Amazon Associates members so you can make money from your blog, and keyword click tracking so you can see which links your site visitors are clicking.
• Akismet: is a spam-fighting service that is different from others in that it checks the content of the comment anonymously with an online server, to determine whether it is spam or not. The Akismet WordPress plugin ships with WordPress 2.0 and later by default, but if you don’t have it for some reason, you can download it from the official page.

These are just a few of the plugins available to WordPress users.
