Project Part 3 – More plugins!

Additional Plugins

I previously talked about the theme and plugins that I was using on my project website. I thought I would do this update as I have added four additional WordPress plugins. You may be thinking that I am using a lot of plugins, but it’s not that many really. The majority of them, once set-up are automated and you don’t really have to worry about them. For example, the HTML Javascript Adder and Spam-Stopper plugins need no interference at all.


Comment Email Verification
This plugin ensures that people who write comments verify their email address before the comment is displayed. This is good for stopping people automatically spamming your posts.

Google Plus One
I have used this to place the button in the sidebar allowing people to ‘like’ website. This help increase Search Engine Optimisation by allowing visitors to advertise your own site!

Google Custom Search
This is self-explanatory. Rather than have the basic WordPress search facility, it is better to use Google Search – for obvious reasons. This link doesn’t take you to the actual plugin, rather it is an explanation with a video of how to include this on your website. Thanks goes out to tipsandtricks.hq.com for having such a useful ‘how to’.

Simple Sitemap
Having a sitemap on your site is a very good idea when it comes to SEO. It is automatic – just create a page for it to be displayed then you can leave it. A sitemap is just a list of all the posts and pages that are on your site. This is especially useful if, for some reason, a link is broken on another part of the site.

WP Polls
Polls enable you to improve the interactivity of your site. People like to feel that they have been thought of (which should be your main concern anyway). It is also good for finding out information about what people like. If all visitors are interested in Sci-fi then it would be best to stick to that area when reviewing films. Or you may wish to increase other categories to reach a larger audience. The choice is entirely up to you.

In the next part of the project

Now that we have the theme and plugins installed it is time to move onto creating posts about your movies. I will go into this on the next post. How to create them, what to look out for and what will help increase your SEO increasing the chance of more visitors.
