If you use and choose them wisely these plugin will help you make most of your WordPress blog by making it more search engine friendly, will help you spread the word and to keep visitor busy on your website.

Google XML Sitemaps: It generates XML sitemaps for your WordPress blog automatically based on configuration you specify. It will help search engines like google, yahoo, bing or ask.com and many others who use Google XML sitemap format to crawl your website/blog. It is a kind of must have plugin for any WordPress blog.

All in One SEO Pack: This plugin provides out-of-the-box SEO for WordPress blog. You can specify different title, keywords and meta-description for any post. So that title of the post can be different than the meta-title under head tag which can help in SEO. As well as it will build custom keywords for post-lists by collecting keywords from each post. (For example home or any category list - it will collect list of keywords from each post and build a keyword list).

WP Super Cache: WP Super Cache is the best plugin if you want your posts to load faster as once loaded your blog-page will be cached as html file so that subsequent requests will be served by that html file only avoiding database query, which will improve the performance of your WordPress blog and let you serve more requests per second. :)

Fancy Radio-button and Checkbox

Fancy Radio/ Checkbox

I have written a jQuery Plugin for Fancy Custom Checkbox and Radio-buttons. To make form elements visually more expressive. I required this for one of my project and later on I have rewritten it completely to make it more generic and easier for jQuery Lovers. I am great fan of jQuery and I am inspired by http://ryanfait.com/resources/custom-checkboxes-and-radio-buttons/ to write this plugin.

It's fairly easy to use just like any other jQuery plugin you just have to write couple of lines of javascript code and add some CSS to your html.

Javascript You need:

$(document).ready(function(){
	$(".radio").dgStyle();
	$(".checkbox").dgStyle();
});

Ever wanted Radio-button group which could be deselected once you click on any of the choice from given radio button group?

    $(":radio").behaveLikeCheckbox();
});
