Since WordPress is by far the most prolific blog platform with plugin support, this section will discuss a number of WordPress plugins available for making SEO  easy.

All in One SEO Pack: If you have to choose one plugin for WordPress to use, this is the one you need. The All in One SEO Pack gives publishers the ability to customize the title tag (and make it different from the actual post title) and to add meta tags to individual posts and the blog’s homepage itself.

Google XML Sitemap: This plugin gives you the ability to create a sitemap that is search-engine friendly.  When a blog post is published, it also automatically notifies search engines of changes via pinging.  As soon as you publish a new post, the XML sitemap gets updated.

Dagon Design Sitemap Generator: You already have a sitemap for search engines, but what about for visitors?  Dagon Design’s sitemap generator is a fully customizable sitemap generator that you can add on a single page for ease of navigation for those human readers.  It also allows you to view the number of comments your blog posts have received at a glance.

Objection Redirection: Making a big page structure overhaul?  Use this plugin to redirect pages without having to edit your .htaccess file.

WP Super Cache: If your server is stressed under an intensive load of concurrent database connections, WP Super Cache kicks in to serve static HTML files without processing the heavy PHP scripts.  While this is may suffice as a viable solution and will keep your website up during a traffic spike, your hosting environment may still have problems with this setup, so stress testing is absolutely imperative.

Disqus: If you don’t want to manage comments yourself, the Disqus comments plugin is a social community that also serves as a WordPress plugin.

WordPress has thousands of plugins available, and many of them support additional features, including analytics, social integration, and more.  The official WordPress plugin directory can be found at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/.

Note: Upon starting a new WordPress blog, be sure to set up the permalink structure appropriately.  By default, your URL may be something to the effect of www.mydomain.com/?p=302.  Change this as soon as you get started to reflect a keyword-rich URL structure and to employ slugs rather than post IDs within the URL.
