Alright, so you’ve launched your WordPress website, you chose the theme which suits you the most and now you are searching for the right plugins. In the vast sea of free and freemium plugins located at the WordPress repository, how do you choose the plugin(s) for your site?
In one of my recent articles, I covered the list of plugins I recommend for a WordPress website. Of course, I use these plugins on my own personal website and depending on the type of website you are managing, you might not need all of them! In any case, let’s start with the basics 🙂
Installing a WordPress plugin
Log into the wp-admin area of your WordPress website and navigate to Plugins > Add New.
You will be able to search the WordPress repository and find the plugin you need. You can also check for Popular and Recommended plugins.
