The Best Wordpress Plugins in The Blogosphere

In an earlier post Wordpress Plugins Ever Blogger Should Use, I introduced the LinkLove no follow plugin. This WordPress plugin turns off the  nofollow attribute for all commenters who have posted a set number of comments (configured in the admin panel). This plugin is now enabled and everyone that posts a comment will get a SEO boost back from their contribution. Keep in mind I have the comments set to be manually approved and want them to have thought and be insightful. If anyone has a question or comment just ask me there and I will be more then happy to reply to it.

With that said here is the second list of The Best Wordpress Plugins

Theme Switcher
Easily show demos of other themes or switch between them.

Show Top Commentor
Shows the members that have commented the most time in order. Great for encouraging activity in the blog and keeping them reading the posts.

Buy Me a Beer - Displays a beer or coffee icon and provides a link to your Paypal account for readers to buy you a beverage of your choice. A great way to encourage the readers to give back something to you.

SpellChecker
Provides spellcheck functioning on your dashboard. Great if you do not use Firefox which as that built in (not as useful anymore).

WP-Contact Form - Creates a contact form for members to reach you at. Use this to sell advertising, report issues, or just for general contact.

Gravatars - It lets you place the small pictures (avatars) of your readers next to their comments on your blog. Another great community builder! Please note this is the new and updated Gravatars 2, the first one was discontinued.

Adhesive - This plugin that lets you make blog posts sticky, so they will remain at the top.These posts will remain at the top of the page no matter how many other posts you wrote later.

   Great plugin lists…I found the theme switcher really useful. Also, I would like to give you a tip that you need to do a few link exchanges than use the blogroll for giving useless backlinks to the A-lister :)

   Another great list. I am going to test out the contact form to replace my boring contact page.
