So, how did the first half of  the Top Wordpress Plugins for Internet Marketers sit in your brain?

Did it all make sense?

I hope so, because here is the second half of the best plugins for internet marketing and SEO that I could find and actually implement well into my blog.  I wrote on them because I actually USE them and IMPLEMENT them.

PLUS – If you remember, yesterday I mentioned a link to the training source that I STILL use for learning about content marketing – and that it would be at the end of that post.

Well, I forgot to add it, so I’ve included a link to that training at the bottom of this post.

Anyways, here is the second half:

Onlywire For Wordpress – A few weeks ago I did a post on this plug-in and it’s enormous social bookmarking power.  I’ll simply refer you to it now: Onlywire Plugin Review

Sociable – The Sociable Plugin is another social bookmarking gadget to have so that your readers will be able to share your posts with the rest of the world.  It works a lot like Onlywire, except that each “bookmark” you make is done individually instead of all at once.

TweetMeme Retweet Button – The TweetMeme plugin allows you to easily use the TweetMeMe button in your WordPress blog posts so that you can automatically Tweet your blog post after you post it.

WP Super Cache – WP Super Cache is a caching plugin for WordPress.   The way that it works is that it generates html files that are placed on a server without processing comparatively heavy PHP scripts.

If you are experiencing a slow load time, by using this plugin you will speed up your WordPress blog significantly.

WP Greet Box – This is one cool gadget to your blog.  Ha!  I love this one.

This plugin will show a different greeting message to your new visitors depending on where they came from.

For example, when a Digg user clicks through from Digg, they will see a message reminding them to Digg your post.  Or if they come from Twitter, they will see a message suggesting them to “Tweet” the post and follow you on Twitter.

You can also set a default greeting message for new visitors asking them to subscribe to your RSS feed.

And I just learned this after reading about the WP Super cache, but this plugin and WP Super Cache are compatible so you don’t have to sacrifice any site loading speed.

Akismet – If there were just ONE anti-spam plugin for you to use, this would be the one.  Download it.  Period.  You will see your spam traffic decrease dramatically.

Tie it together with Simple Trackback Validation plugin below, and you’re golden!

WordPress.com Stats – This is one of the first plugins I downloaded onto my blog – so we go back a long time.  Oh, the memories…

Installing this stats plugin is much like installing Akismet, all you need is your API Key and the rest is automatic.

Once it’s working,  it’ll begin collecting information about your page views, which posts and pages are the most popular, where your traffic is coming from, and what people are clicking on when they leave.

It’ll also add a link to your Wordpress dashboard which allows you to see all your stats on a single page.

Simple Trackback Validation – performs a simple test on all incoming links to your comments section in order to stop spam.

When a trackback is received, this plugin checks if the IP address of the sender is equal to the IP address of the webserver the link is referring back to.  This reveals almost every spam link since spammers use “bots.”

So, there you go folks, that is my complete list of the top blog plugins for internet marketing and SEO.

If there is anything else you guys can think of, be sure to let me know.

And in case you hadn’t noticed it yet, there is a little “Retweet” button at the top of this post.  If you are a friendly sort, kindly hit the “Retweet” button to cycle this post around.

P.S. – My Bonus

Now, that training course I mentioned.

It is called Viral Content Magic.

Without telling you too much, the design is that it takes you along 8 principles behind traffic generation using content marketing.

Inside you will learn more about :

• Supercharging your own blog.
• Use a simple keyword exercise that will uncover profitable keywords.
• Learn how to write the perfect closing lines in your articles to increase your response rate.
• Learn how to make your content go viral and generate massive viral traffic.
• And how to set up your sales funnel so that your prospects will have no choice but to sign up for your primary business.

This is just ONE of the many training programs that I have used to get my blog to where it’s at today.

I highly recommend you take a look if you are looking for an all inclusive training module to help boost your blog, article, and content marketing knowledge.

I have been wanting to write this post for a long time, but I wanted to MAKE SURE that I was offering you the top wordpress plugins for internet marketers that I could dig up.

So I spent some time on this post.

It’s just been sitting in my cave of posts that I’ve been researching and working on over the last few … well, it feels like millenia.

I looked at different plug-in reviews and trialed them on my own blog here.

I studied different courses – which I will introduce you to later in this post.

What I found was a lot of someone else’s opinion, was confusing, or was simply not applicable to what we’re doing here as internet marketers.

I Thought of Different Routes

Should I write about the top 5, the top 10,  or write about the top SEO plugins, or do I make it a Top “Any Plugin Goes” kind of post?

And that is basically where I decided to leave it.

This is just my overall “Top Wordpress Plugins.”  I’ve focused on SEO plugins to help you with your optimization, but I’ve also included plugins to improve your overall blog flow, some cool widgets,  and anti-spam tools – because as you know – we really should all be focusing on pleasing our readers, and not JUST the search engines.  Right?

My Top “Any Plugin Goes” List

I am going to tell you exactly which plugins I have on my Wordpress blog, which is a decent list to turbo-boost your Wordpress blog, but – in order to get you the entire list, I have to break things into 2 different posts.

Also, you may want to know that if you are running wordpress, and you haven’t added in your own plugin yet, you simply go to your Wordpress backoffice, select “Plugins”, then “add new”, and select any of the plugins I have selected here and put it in the “search plugins” window.

When the description comes up for that specific plugin, simply click the “Install” link, and Wordpress will automatically download and install the plugin for you.

Anyways, this is just the first half, and they are in no particular order, but I will mention that I wanted to put these SEO turbo-boosted plugins at the beginning.

So here goes…

All In One SEO Pack -  This is a MUST HAVE for SEO optimization of your blog posts.  The idea is that you want to optimize each post – not just your main blog site.  This is because each post will be on a different topic with its own specific title, set of keywords, and meta description, all of which will help each post rank in the search engines individually.

With the All in One SEO, you will be able to edit the title, meta description, and keywords for each individual post – not just your main blog site.

On each individual post you create, there is an area named All in one SEO in the editing window where you can tweak title, keywords and descriptions.  The title can only be tweaked here, and this is a very powerful way to optimize your posts and pages.

Headspace 2 – This plugin is All In One SEO Pack on steroids.

Now, that will probably tempt you to want to use it over All In One SEO, BUT I will warn you that is it a bit more difficult to set up – especially some of the intricacies of what you may or may not want it to do.

Not that that should keep you from setting it up.  I actually have both All in One SEO Pack AND Headspace 2 running right now.  Until I find a reason NOT to have them both running, I will keep them going for now.

Google XML Site Maps – Sitemaps are an easy way for you to inform search engines about pages on your blog. Basically, a Google Sitemap is a file which contains URLs and some additional information for all public pages or documents of your website.  Google can read this file and add the defined pages to their index.

In other words – it’s a “map” telling the search engines to come take a look and crawl through the site and to “look at me, look at me!”

Nofollow Blogroll SEO – If you are familiar with SEO, you know that linking out to other sites from every single page of your site (such as a blogroll or internal linking does) can hurt your SEO.  You lose too much “link juice.”

It doesn’t really help the sites you’re linking to because search engines don’t place as much value on site-wide links – all the other sites need is one good link from your site.

This plugin will allow you to give “link love” (via a followed link) to sites in your Blogroll from the homepage of your blog, which is most likely the strongest page anyway in terms of SEO link juice.

Simple Tags – Simple Tags plugin is an extended way to improve your tagging – or keywords.  Features include suggested tags, mass edit tags, autocompletion, tag cloud widgets, related posts, and related tags.

MyBlogLog – MyBlogLog is actually a widget operated by Yahoo.com.  You download the plugin and a widget is created for you.

Just place the widget in your side bar and you can add a community to your blog.  Really this is just social networking with a blog.

The widget will show you recent readers to your blog, and then within MyBlogLog, you can view stats on where they come from, what they viewed, and where they went.

Where Does that Leave Things?

Well, that is just the first half of the top Wordpress plugins for internet marketers.

Crazy that there is that many huh?

What I think is even more crazy is that there are so many that are built to help you with your SEO for your blog.

That is why I wanted to create this post – to give you as comprehensive and effective list of wordpress plugins as possible.

Stay tuned tomorrow when I bring you the second half of this list!

God Bless,
