SEO

WordPress SEO by Yoast is actually our preferred plugin and the one that we use. It’s the most comprehensive SEO plugin available that offers everything marketers need to optimize their site.

All in One SEO Pack is also another option that optimizes your blog for SEO and automates a lot of the key functionalities.

SEO Ultimate is a great option that features the same functionalities, but has great features such as bulk editing of Robot tags.

Google XML Sitemaps works as a directory for your site and is supposed to tell Google where everything is listed and where to crawl to find it. Any good SEO plugin should already have this, but if you’re using a stock theme and don’t, then it would be a good idea to install this.

CACHE

W3 Total Cache is a great cache plugin that we use. It delivers the results you need faster and better but does have a sizable RAM requirement.

WP Super Cache is a great alternative if you don’t have the required RAM that W3 Total Cache needs. It’s easy to install and doesn’t need much technical know how to work with it.

SPAM

Akismet is the most popular anti spam plugin for WordPress and is the one that we use. It keeps track of every comment, pingback and trackback efficiently. The plugin is free for personal use but does charge anywhere from $5 to $50 monthly for commercial sites.

WordPress Zero Spam is a fairly new alternative and has so far been getting good reviews, particularly for its ability to block spam comments automatically without having to fill out captcha.

WP-Spamshield is one of the most powerful anti spam plugins that can also develop forms that filter out spam, that is currently free for personal and commercial use.

BACKUP

Backup Buddy is our go-to plug in for our backup needs. They have great customer service and tech support, which makes up for the quite complicated installation process. The storage capacity is also a great draw.

VaultPress is a great alternative, particularly if you’re only looking backup a single website. It’s cheaper with unlimited storage, but it doesn’t offer volume discounts. So if you’re looking to expand your site, this might get more expensive in the long run.

BackWPup is another option that includes backing all your necessary information on trusted cloud storage sites like Dropbox. It offers easy to follow instructions and automate regularly scheduled backups.

SECURITY

iThemes Security is known as the number 1 security plugin for WordPress. It’s a bold claim that, having used it for some time now, proved to be true. With over 30 features designed to protect your site, it’s a dependable plugin that is well worth the money spent.

All in One WP Security and Firewall is a comprehensive plugin that offers a lot of features. It’s arguably the most user-friendly of all the top security plugins.

BulletProof Security promises bulletproof protection against hacking attempts. A notable feature is also how it’s website performance optimized to allow great user experience along with top security.
