Google XML sitemap

I’m not starting with All in one SEO or Platinum SEO plugin, because this is the plugin every wordpress user install from the first day. Though Google XML sitemap falls under the same category. This plugin helps you to create a sitemap of your blog and you can submit it to various search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ask and many more. Putting your site map link in the bottom of your blog will also help search engine bots to crawl your site easily and effectively.

Broken Link checker :

Broken links are considered as dead end for search engine. For any blog having lots of broken link is always considered as bad SEO. Broken link checker plugin check your blog for all the broken links and report it on dashbaord. Few things which you considered while using this plugin, if you have a busy site and lots of posts, it may slow down your site at the time of checking for broken links. I will suggest use this plugin on day when you get less traffic, preferably on Weekends.

SEO Friendly Image WordPress Plugin

Do you know you can use images to drive huge traffic into your blog. Like in a post we add meta description, meta title to make it search engine optimized. For Images we need to add Alt text. SEO friendly Image plugin will add Alt tag from the name of the image. Though make sure you should n’t use name like Image0007.jpeg and so on. Always keep the name of the image close to the post title, if you use wordpress dashbaord to upload your images, I will also suggest to add one line description this will help a lot to drive huge traffic to your blog from image search engine.

Note: I have not covered All in one SEO plugin because its one plugin which I believe should be a part of WordPress core.
