There are more Wordpress SEO plugins out there than you can poke a stick at; or ever use. I’ve seen at least twenty SEO plugins for Wordpress and I wonder who the heck has time to use even a fraction of them? You can learn the bulk of the SEO game by understanding the simple words of StomperNet’s Brad Fallon … “Use your keywords early, and often”.
There you go, you’re on your way to being an SEO guru! OK seriously, there is a LOT to know about SEO however you can have Google give you a ton of love by doing some really fast and basic optimization. All you need are Brad’s words in your mind, and two plugins to let you optimize your Wordpress content quickly and easily.
Before you publish
First up, do your keyword research with free keyword tool at Wordtracker (or similar tool). Find the keywords you are looking to optimize any given post or page for. When you’ve got that down, you can publish your post and optimize that post with the following two essential SEO plugins for Wordpress.
Two Essential SEO plugins for Wordpress
All In One SEO
The grand daddy of them all: All In One SEO.
Sitemap Generator
Dagon Design has been giving and getting a lot of love from the Wordpress community. Here is their sitemap generator plugin.
Those are the two I can’t live without. What about you … got a favorite SEO plugin you just have to use?

Thanks… I have been trying to decide how to manage SEO when I start a bog, or a wordpress website.
All In One SEO. gets lots of mentions, does anyone know if it is compatible with wordpress 2.8.
July 6th, 2009
Np. Yes, it works fine with 2.8.

Blimey Danno… that was a quick reply.

Another I would suggest for the list is Greg's High Performance SEO, which configures over 100 separate SEO characteristics while loading only about 600 lines of code per page view and avoiding the use of crude output buffer hacks. By contrast, the 'leading' SEO plugin (I won't name names!) configures around 20 parameters and loads something like 2000 lines of code.
It's not for everybody — several people have reported that they don't want to have to deal with the full SEO picture and would rather just the some basics. But I think it's worth checking out.
All the best,
Greg (yep, that one)

Great. This is a very good list for anyone using wordpress. I will print this list out and use it!

Hi Greg
Your plugin gets a good ranking over on the Wordpress plugins site.
Not heard much about it, but I might give it a go.
Are there any reviews out there that you know of?

All in One SEO is awesome. It is so easy to make your Wordpress blogs SEO friendly. It also allows a lot of different options, which is really nice. I don't have the Sitemap Generator installed, but I will have to give it a shot.

Good call on those two plugins, they are pretty much "must haves"!
I like the Ping Optimizer too, because I tend to tweak posts and pages alot so that plugin helps over-pinging and getting labeled as a spammer.
June 9th, 2010
Nice post, my favrite plugin is the related post plugin it gives you the oppertunity to build internal links.
June 16th, 2010
All in Seo is indeed by far the best SEO wordpress plugin!
