Favorite WordPress Plugins

What makes WordPress a premium choice besides its impressive content management capability is the availability of plugins for virtually any function you need to achieve with your blog.

Some of my favorite plugins are:

• SPAM Fighting plugins: SpamKarma, Askimet, WP-Spam-free, Challenge.
Protection against SPAM should be the first thing to look for once you have your blog setup. Needless to say SPAM is an intricate part of the worldwide web medium and blogs are not left untouched.
