Here are all the plugins I’m using! For your convenience I will add the new plugins I install at the top of the list - that should make it easier for you to find updates. I will also post each time I add a new plugin.

1. Anti-Social - Replaced my Sociable plugin. It is exactly the same as the Sociable plugin, except it adds ‘nofollows’ to the button-links of the social networking sites. Anti-Social allows you to add social bookmarking buttons at the end or beginning of every post. Look at the end of this post, and you’ll see the row of buttons. (Digg, Reddit, Netscape, etc.)
2. Google Sitemaps - This plugin creates an XML sitemap for your WordPress blog. Creating an XML sitemap can help you to get deep, hidden pages of your site indexed and included in Google’s search results.
3. Subscribe To Comments - Allows users to subscribe to the comments of individual posts. This plugin is awesome if people use comments to ask you questions. They can easily subscribe so that the answer and additional comments will be sent to them by email.
4. Adsense - This plugin is what allows me to run Google Ads in some posts, while leaving them out of others. After installing the plugin properly, you will have an Adsense button on your ‘Write Post’ page. Click the button, and it will insert and ad into your post.
5. Akismet - Akismet is one of 2 spam stopping plugins that I’m running. It checks comments against a database of known, spammish comments and deletes the ones it thinks are spam.
6. Peter’s Custom Anti-Spam - This little plugin creates a little picture image that people have to type in order to leave a comment. I use this one alongside Akismet because I usually end up checking the ones filtered by Akismet manually. I would rather never see comments left by bots at all.
7. Brian’s Threaded Comments - This is the plugin that makes it so that I can respond directly to your comments - my response will appear directly under your comment. It also allows users to respond directly to other users’ comments.
8. Dagon Design Sitemap Generator - Use this plugin to create an HTML sitemap of your site. You can find my sitemap page here. The entire page was created with the plugin, I didn’t make any of those links. Don’t confuse this one with the XML sitemap generator. HTML sitemaps show links that can be clicked on, XML sitemaps are just lists of pages in a site and aren’t really there for people at all.
9. Dean’s Code Highlighter - In some of my articles, I have given you highlighted code. Highlighting the code was quite a trick! This is the plugin that allowed me to do it. Here’s an article where you can find some of the highlighted code: Get More Traffic - Technorati Tags. If you look at the article you’ll find some grey boxes that highlight HTML code.
10. Digg Button - Much like the Adsense plugin I use, the Digg Button plugin adds a special button to my ‘Write Post’ page. When I click the Digg button, it inserts a Diggable button into my post. I don’t use it on most of my posts, but I do use it for posts that I think will do well on Digg.
11. Show Top Commentators - This one allows me to have my ‘Comment Champs’ section in my sidebar. I think this one encourages people to comment even more than the Dofollow plugin does.
12. NoWWW - Have you ever seen a www version of any of my URLs? I don’t think so! Even if you type in www, my site will redirect you to a non-www’d version of the page. This makes it so that Google doesn’t double index my site. Double indexing is bad!! Maybe you’re more familiar with the term duplicate content - it should be avoided no matter what you call it.
13. Related Posts - It shows ‘related posts’ at the end of each one of my posts. This plugin helps readers to find more information on subjects they’re interested in, and also helps your pages to look more important to search engines. Since your pages get linked to from more places, they look better which will lead to higher rankings.
14. All-In-One SEO Pack - This creates a more friendly SEO title tag for each of my pages. It also adds a meta description and keywords to each page. You’ll notice that my title tags show the post title before the category and site name. Do yours?
15. Ultimate Tag Warrior - One of my most favorite! This plugin adds tag pages to your site and links to them with relevant tags at the ends of your posts. Great for SEO, and for tagging. I love it!
16. WP-Contact Form - This one is how I created the contact form on my contact page. If people don’t have to open up an email, it makes it a lot easier for them to contact you!
