  5. Hi Mike Glover , I am using all of these plugins and I feel “W3 Total Cache ” should also be mentioned in this list, since it is best wordpress seo optimization plugin available out there. Anyway, thanks for sharing this useful list of plugins.

    • Hi Rahul – Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment. I cheked out the W3 Total Chache plug-in and like what I see. I am sure there are some obvious SEO benefits when it come to page load time so I recommend this plugin for very large blogs that have a huge amount of content to archieve and load. over 1300 user reviews and 4.5 stars. Nice!

      GREAT contribution Rahul – DoFollow link status activated!

  10. Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s tough to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appeal. I must say you’ve done a amazing job with this. In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Opera. Exceptional Blog!
