Since I made my previous post about WordPress plugins I have started to use a few more and thought it might be useful to share them with you.
- TwitThis – This plugin places a ‘TwitThis’ button at the end of every post making it easy for your blog readers to share your posts on Twitter.
- WP YouTube – Makes it easy to embed YouTube videos in your posts like I did in my last post about Scoutle.
- Subscribe To Comments – Adds a check box to your comment forms allowing commenters to get automatic email notifications when further comments are posted. It’s a great way to encourage people to come back to your blog and keep the discussion going.
- Show Top Commentators – Allows you to display a list of your top commenters in the sidebar encouraging more discussion on your blog.
- SezWho – Installing this plugin fully integrates your blog with the SezWho community which allows readers to discover new blogs that they may be interested in, commenters to gain recognition for their contributions across different blogs by using universal profiles and site owners to attract more traffic and build a community of readers. Installing this plugin fully integrates your blog with the SezWho community.
If there are any plugins that you use and would recommend to other people go ahead and leave a comment.

To encourage comments, there is another plugin which might be worth giving a try: commentag (http://www.commentag.com).
It allows to tag comments to give them more visibility.
When you spend time writing a comment you would be more than happy if many persons read it. If it is just put at the end of a list of comments only a few will.
But if you add tags, visitors can see a tagcloud of the discussion at the top and can filter the comments which interest them.
Give it a try!
Thanks for that, Xavier. I’ve just added it so that I can try it out.
You might also want to include the Wordpress Internal Link Building plugin.
Many thanks for that suggestion. I’ve just installed it and it looks like an excellent plugin.

I like WP youtube the most BTW, but my theme is not widget enabled so can’t use many plugins available like sms sending one found on WP plugin site. Can any body suggest me a way how can I convert my theme to use widgets?
hey Chris, Wildfire,
Thanks for the kind words guys. @Chris – any chance you could make it a dofollow link, please?
Cheers

SubscribeToComment might trigger many emails when too many people commenting…
Anyone has this trouble?
Great plug ins there Xavier. I will try the plugins on my blogs and we’ll see the developments. Many thanks!
thanks for sharing, i’m using sezwho plugin too
Great reviews on the plugins. I have implemented the wp youtube plugin on wp 2.6.3 and it works like a charm.
Cheers.

Not a plugin but do not forget Tweetbeep. (http://www.tweetbeep.com)I find this to be one of the best tools for identifying twitters with key words.

Yes, the Twitter plugin appears to be a big part of the future. But does it need any special settings to post bto an external site?
Hey, thanks a lot for the information.Very helpful to a blogging noob like me.! Great site by the way. Bookmarked it.
