Top Wordpress Plugins to Help You To Make Money Online

by Shai Coggins on January 29th, 2008

To celebrate the long-awaited move back to Wordpress of my personal blog, I thought I’d highlight some of my favourite WP plugins that can help you to make money online.

1) All-in-One SEO Pack - Great for auto-adding of meta tags, optimizing titles, etc. Simple to install.

2) AdSense Manager - Makes it easier for you to post your Adsense ads within your Wordpress blogs (even within posts). You can change different types of ads. And, it’s widget-enabled. You can also optionally ‘donate’ part of your ad space to the creator of this plugin.

3) Ad Rotator - If you plan to run different affiliate links or your own direct ads, then this might be a good way to show the different ads you’ve got without overcrowding your blog with too many ads.

4) Amazon Simple Admin - Enables you to insert Amazon products within your blog posts.

5) Amazon Smartlinks Widget - Another way to make money off your Amazon affiliate links. It can post your Wish List, Amazon Bestsellers, etc. with your affiliate ID linked to the displays. Also widgetized.

6) Text Link Ads - If you wish to run text link ads, then you gotta have the plugin that comes when you set up your TLA account. It’s also now widget-enabled.

7) WP Directory - Looking to start directories, but don’t want to handle a massive directory software or application? Try this simple solution that you can manage via Wordpress. You can create paid listings, sponsored links, marketplace, etc. Really useful!

8) textLink Adder - A good little plugin that enables you to sell direct text links or run your own affiliate links.

9) Quick Shop - A sidebar widget that enables you to add a Paypal button, either for donations or for selling an item or two. Has a mini shopping cart feature.

10) All in One AdSense and YPN - Enables you to add Adsense or Yahoo Publishing Network ads in to your posts.

11) Ad-minister - Helps you to manage your blog’s ads, including ad rotation.

12) AdServe - A plugin that helps you to manage direct advertising on your blog. It comes various options (how many impressions available, types of banners, etc.)

* Please note that these plugins may or may not work on your particular Wordpress installation, as it will depend on your version of WP and the latest plugin upate.

** I’ll be updating this page from time to time, when appropriate - adding new useful plugins or removing ones that no longer work. So, if you want to check this again, I recommend bookmarking this page in some way (StumbleUpon, Digg, del.icio.us, or just your good ol’ browser’s bookmark. Thanks.)

*** Thanks again to Aaron Brazell, for helping with the move from EE back to Wordpress.
