Add to Your Functionality in WordPress
Plugins allow you to add more functionality and appeal to your WordPress site and can help you scale. New Bloggers can find it difficult to choose the right WordPress plugins. There are over 55k+ premium and free plugins available in the WordPress Store.
This piece highlights the 13 best plugins that you should consider after creating a blog. Just make sure that you are adding quality content 2 – 3 times a week and don’t be distracted by these plugins. Only add what you absolutely have to at the beginning of your journey and always check your site speed before and after adding a plugin.
If it all goes wrong you can yell for the technical cavalry to get your website going again. So relax and only add what will help you grow.
Let's get started!
1. WP Rocket
This plugin is a must-have. The base plan costs $49 and includes a single 12-month license. This is one of the best blogging investments you can make.
It manages your database, which can be quite tedious for bloggers. Automating many energy-consuming tasks will save you time and help you save money.
WP Rocket has been ranked as the fastest and most efficient cache plugin for optimizing the speed of your blog. It makes it easy to perform cache-related tasks, such as browser caching, Cloudflare, and OP caches.
If you don't have the funds, you can just skip the Imagify plugin. Instead, assign the task to WP Rocket. This speed allows busy visitors to easily read your content without any hassle.

(8) WP Bakery page Builder (9) Yoast Duplicate Post (10) Theme Rex Utilities (11) Visual Composers (12)GDPR Frame work and
(13) Slider Revolution.
My challenge now is how many of these plugins should I activate in my website?
It would give an error when I tried to edit the page. I believe the free version is ok as long as you are not using it with woocommerce. I do know that the paid version is good and many people like it.
Thank you for the list.
