10 Must Have WordPress Plugins 2011- The List
10 Must Have WordPress Plugins 2011 – 1) Backlinks Rotator -
This plugin improves Off Page SEO and is the most exciting plugin I have come across in a while. I purchased this plugin a few weeks ago and to be honest I did not believe it would work. I was just testing it out. Well 2 weeks later my blogs ARE getting auto created backlinks. These are backlinks actually created on other peoples websites and found by the search engines. In less then a week I started seeing the first backlinks pop up in Yahoo site explorer (a tool for checking what sites link to your site). Now into the second week the links are starting to come in steady. This will continue automated basically forever.
This is a plugin that you pay for and worth every penny. You can click on this link to go to the backlinks rotator website and learn how it works and how to get your copy of their plugin.
10 Must Have WordPress Plugins 2011 - 2) the FREE SEO Search Terms Tagging Plugin-
The FREE SEO Searchterm tagging plugin improves On Page SEO by adding new internal linking to the blog post using the most popular keywords used by search engine visitors to find the blog post from a search engine ( incoming search terms ). It does this in the back ground automatically for every post you or article you write.
You can get the SEO Search Terms Tagging plugin thru the admin panel of your WordPress blog (see the link posted earlier if you don't know how to add a plugin to your blog).

10 Must Have WordPress Plugins 2011 – 5) The Keywords Statistics Plugin
The Keyword-Statistics-Plugin is a FREE plugin. Since I use the clickbump plugin I really don't pay attention to the keywords statistics anymore BUT I STILL USE THE KEYWORDS STATISTICS PLUGIN for the 3 most important meta tags – The Title, description and keywords tags (the keywords tags is far less important then it used to be). If you have a different way of creating these meta tags they way you want them and you get your keyword density information somewhere else then you can probably skip this plugin all together. This is available for free thru the Plugins tab of your admin panel. Visit plugin site
