Google Analytics for WordPress

Add to Any

Google XML sitemaps

To add plugins to a blog, go to the backend of your blog, on the left hand side, scroll down until you see Plugins, click add new, you will then be prompted to type in a keyword which will help you search for the type of plugin you would like to add. For instance, if you want to add a contact page to your blog, type in contact and several different plugins for contact forms will appear.

What plugins do you recommend?  I would love to here new ideas!
