WordPress has evolved into the most popular blogging platform in the world. Many hosting accounts now even come with it pre-installed. There are thousands of programmers and developers creating plug-ins that add to WordPress' functionality, allowing you to do some truly amazing things with a site built around this powerful but simple content management system. The problem is that most of us don't know which plug-ins we should be using on our sites. We don't know which ones work properly, we don't know which ones introduce security issues, and we simply don't have the time or know-how to research all of the plug-ins. I'll be joined on this show by Alex Sysoef of http://www.expertwordpress.com/ and we'll be discussing how to choose the best plug-ins for your site, and perhaps some that you should avoid. We'll be discussing optimizing your WordPress blog so that it ranks VERY high in the search engines... and just how to get the most out of your WordPress blogs. One of the PROBLEMS with using WordPress and popular plug-ins is that everyone knows the default settings. Most people install their blogs, and never change those defaults. So, people wanting to hack into your site or server, have an easy attack vector. Alex and I will share with you how to easily change those defaults to something nearly impossible to guess, and also how to install your blogs in mere minutes with all of the ideal plug-ins also installed and activate. Let us make you a WordPress power-users like we are while sharing with you how to do things the fast and easy way.
