How to Add a Plugin in Wordpress
If you are just starting out with creating a website in Wordpress it can be a little overwhelming. The Wordpress application has so many features and without proper training you may be missing out on some of the features it has to offer. One of those great features is the ease of installing plugins. Let’s take a moment to go through the steps that will take your site to the next level. Here is how to add a plugin in Wordpress.
Search For Your Desired Plugin
You may not know the specific name of the plugin you are looking for but have an idea of what you want your site to do. There is a search feature in the screenshot above. Maybe you want a plugin that will create a better visual experience to your visitors when promoting an Amazon product. Type "Amazon" into the search field and check out the results.
Read the Reviews First Before You Download
A desired plugin may seem all it’s cracked up to be until you try it out. Save yourself the hassle and read the reviews. Just like if you are purchasing something on Amazon you see what people have to say about the product. The same goes for plugins.
Another thing to look for is how often there are updates. If the plugin you are interested in hasn’t been updated in over a year it may not be compatible with the latest version of Wordpress.
Install and Click Activate
Success
Now you can start utilizing the features of your new plugin.
