Today I installed WordPress (for the 100000th time), I noticed that there’s a pattern of steps that I do each time I install WordPress. Of course your need-to-do list varies depending on your needs. After thinking about it for a bit, I came up with this.
0. Install WordPress. Duh!
- Install/Activate a Spam-Protection Plugin
Either Akismet or WP-SpamFree I recommend. Bots can pick up your site at any minute! - Install a SEO plugin
I didn’t say the bots have to be bad ones! - Install a stats plugin
WordPress Stats or Google Analyticator (You need a Google Analytics account) I recommend. - Install Exec-PHP
We all need to execute PHP at some point, this plugin allows you to even do it in your posts and pages! - Install a Feed-stats plugin
I recommend the Feedburner with obviously a Feedburner account.
