SIX! Only 6.

I have 18. And they ALL must be used.

Thanks for the list.

akismet rules but full text feed…i don’t know. is kinda slow. at least when i’ve tried it, it took up to an hour till the feed was updated. But that’s a great post though. Thanks!

I really like the "Brian's Threaded Comments" plugin since it lets me (as well as readers) respond to specific comments.

Great post!

Akismet…isn't that obviously essential? I comes with WordPress, even! What a great plugin. Actually, one of the titles I considered for the post was "6 Plugins (Besides Akismet) That Your Blog Should Have." Maybe I should've recycled the "besides akismet" part and used it in the actual post.

i would also add the sitemap plugin and spam comment, like spam karma or akismet.

The All in One SEO Pack? I've heard of that, but I never got around to installing it. It sounds useful.

Katy, I like the XML Sitemaps Generator as well. But does it work with WP 2.3 yet? I had to disable it after upgrading to WordPress 2.3, because an error message would prevent me from posting anything. It's a great plugin.

I have all of them activated for my blog other than the Full Feed plugin but I guess I will give it a try next week with the resuming of the tags because visitors are lazy to scroll.

Google Sitemap and All-In-One SEO Plugin should be added as well. Also, I find Popular Posts and Contact Forms indispensable.

Good list. And I have to agree that All In One SEO Pack should be added. But I also have to add in my own of the http://www.arnebrachhold.de/projects/wordpress-plugins/google-xml-sitemaps-generator/" rel="nofollow">Google XML Sitemaps Generator.

Good list. I would add the All in One SEO pack (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/) as well. It is not so much for readers, but it helps take care of some duplicate content issues and creates description and keyword tags. A great plugin for every blog.
