One thing is to have a blog, and a different thing to have a successful blog. The main difference between the two is the quality of the information that you present. But it’s not the only thing. If you have a blog powered by WordPress—one of the most popular blogging platforms—there are some plugins you should install if you want to make the most out of your blog.

Akismet

There is only one guarantee in the blogging world: people will try to spam your blog. Akismet is really good at figuring out what comments are spam and which ones aren’t. This will save you a lot of time.

All-in-One SEO Pack

This terrific plugin allows you to enter a unique page title, meta description and meta keywords for each of your posts. You NEED to have this one installed to help you rank higher on the search engines.

Do Follow

A great way to increase the number of comments on your blog is by removing the nofollow tag for the links that people include in their comments. This plugin allows you to do exactly that.

FeedBurner Widget

It adds a sidebar widget that allows you to customize and display your FeedBurner subscribers statistics button.
