I am currently building my website downloadfreemovies using wordpress. I have found some good plug-in for my website 1. statpress to track details of website visitors. 2. All in 1 SEO for keyword, description and title in meta tags 3. cforms to add stylist contact form 4. Google Xml Sitemap to create site map for spiders 5.irobot.txt SEO to create robot.txt 6. WP-Cumulus to create tags cloud on your sidebar widget 7. simple tags to add tags for your post I like to know about more plug-in , Pls. share your experience and help everyone to make easy customization in wordpress.
I'd recommend: 1) Headspace 2 2)Replace WP-Version 3) User Locker 4) WordPress Database Backup 5) WP Security Scan And then consider some addition plugins like tippy for aesthetics
I like to know more about plug-in which help me to make CSS drop down menu on my website. I like to know if it is possible to generate different tags on different pages. currently my all tags get mix and appear on every page. but i prefer to display specific tags on different pages.
The only wordpress plugin that I really recommend is the sitemap generator - it "pings" the search engines and notifies them when you update your page. As for the all in one seo package - wordpress has enough SEO feature built in, I dont think an extra plugin is really needed. For spam comments - I recommend ReCaptcha and the "Stop Forum Spam" modifications. Between both of those, your spam comments should be almost 0.
WP-PageNavi WordPress Database Backup SexyBookmarks - best looking social bookmark plugin, IMO wordTube - great for your own video content but can use YouTube's API as well; playlist option is nice
Its the Google sitemap generator from this page - http://www.arnebrachhold.de/ I have been using it now for about 18 months. Everytime you update your site, the script rebuilds the sitemap and notifies Ask.com, Google, MSN Search and YAHOO of the changes.
Sitemap generator is awesome, saves me so much time. Plus one less thing I have to remeber to do as it does it automatically..!!! A must have plugin.
In addition to the ones already mentioned I would recommend: Scaleable Contact Form - Contact form you can use anywhere on your blog and also add more fields. Sociable - adds social bookmarking icons to all your posts and pages. Tweetmeme Button - Adds a re-tweet button either at the top or the bottom of every post & page. WP-TwitterBadge - adds a sliding 'follow me' twitter badge to your blog. Subscribe to Comments - Allows commenters to sign up for e-mail notification of future comment entries. -
Disagree with ~kev~ Yes wordpress SEO is already better than you are going to find on any CMS or website creator. If you want to make the extra difference that puts you ahead of the pack, you need All In One SEO
Well how about some Adsense plugins? Anybody likes Adsense Deluxe? Any recommendations about Adsense Now & other similar ones? And, when i try to activate any of these, it gives me a warning CAN'T CHANGE HEADER! what permissions should i change on my webserver files?
By the way i am using 11 plug-ins for my Tech Blog - http://www.latest-technews.com Out of all, XML sitemap generator is the best
I love Wordpress Database Backup as a plugin all together since everyday I get a email with my database backup so if something should go wrong I'll lose nothing which is big for me since its happened once already.
What is "irobot.txt SEO" ? I use RobotsMETA plugin - are they the same? They sound similar.. In addition to the other plugins you use (except Cumulus and Cforms), I use the following: – Backend Plugins Akismet checks your comments against the Akismet web service to see if they look like spam or not. You need a WordPress.com API key to use it. You can review the spam it catches under "Comments."

Yet Another Related Posts Plugin returns a list of related entries based on a unique algorithm for display on your blog and RSS feeds. Yoast Breadcrumbs outputs a fully customizable breadcrumb path. – Other Plugins I use Enhanced WP-ContactForm (I hate Cforms, but Cforms is better than this one so stick with it if you don't find it as confusing as I did!) Enhanced WP Contact Form is a drop in form for users to contact you. In the message it sends to you it gives the page the user visited before the contact page, as well as the original outside referrer.

Seconded. Those are some of my favorite plug-ins for wordpress when it comes to sharing my content. Many of the other suggestions are also great.
Hands down, my favorite plugin is the W3 Total Cache plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/ Dramatically increases your site's speed.
